What will NASCAR look like in five years? Could we see a splinter series? Mailbag
New York TimesA “soap opera.” That’s how Brad Keselowski described the state of NASCAR as the sanctioning body faces a federal antitrust lawsuit brought against it by NBA legend Michael Jordan’s 23XI Racing and Front Row Motorsports. Considering NASCAR’s relationship with the current schedule of track owners, what do you think a splinter series would look like and where might they race? Yet just because something could happen doesn’t necessarily mean it should, and this applies to forming another national stock car series to challenge NASCAR. A driver could still advance from Late Models to NASCAR’s national level — Erik Jones is one such example, and there are plenty of others — but it certainly wasn’t like it used to be “back in the day” when a driver would hone their skills in Late Models then advance upward should they prove deserving.
