I was watching a Wind Tunnel w/ Dave Despain last night on my DVR from this past Sunday since I hadn't had a chance to watch it yet. I was enjoying the 15 or so minutes of Humpy when I was baffled by one of his ideas for NASCAR... It was to color code the teams in some way so that all team cars could be recognized as that car. (I.E. - like in football or baseball.. a uniform for the car basically) Last night when I saw this I thought about how crazy a ridiculous it sounded, and like Dave, the first thing I thought of were sponsors and how they would flip their lid on this idea. That is why I really think this will never happen, because NASCAR (unlike most sports) is a SPONSOR driven sport. Lets face it, w/out sponsors we wouldn't have the NASCAR we have today. Now... w/ that said, after sleeping on it last night and thinking about it this morning.. the more it has grown on me. I think it'd add something back to the sport that we haven't seen in a while and truthfully would be neat as..
