I have followed the sport for a long time like many. As well, I attend 2 to 3 events per year. If you do not think Nascar and there officals are not "Arrogant", get a garage pass and observe for yourself. Granted you are on the inside and close up to the sport, but they run the garage like a prison.
I became close friends to a past Cup driver and he helped me understand who was the boss. You do not talk bad about Nascar if you want to race. If you got him to the side, there were crazy of some of the storiss you would hear.
My wife and I were walking thru the garage area and she had taken off her sweater because it was getting warm, without thinking. Her blouse did not have sleeves. HOLY MOLLY, a offical that was leaning on a race car waiting to get thru tech grabbed her by the arm and told her to put it back on right now or he was going to throw her out of the garage area. Had I not been given a pass by a driver, that offical would be getting out of the hospital about now.
In other words, we were "little people" and he knew that. We both knew the rules, but did the punishment (arrogant, senseless approach) fit the crime?
Carl, they are consistent. If you aren't a player, they can live without you.
