| Did anyone see the article in Saturdays Telegram ..Sports Scene by Robin Short? If you haven't here's some of his quotes.
Auto Racing has all the appeal of a salad bar.
How can anyone get jacked up for a sport where winning is not decided by man but by the machine?
Dollars determine winning and losing The more you got, the better your chances at winning!
Racing excitement level, teeter's somewhere between gardening and shaving!

| Guess Stock Car Racing getting too much coverage for Mr Short. Todays Telegram(wednesday 29 June) Scoreboard had Football, Soccer and Softball get 20 lines coverage. Stock Car Racing at Avondale Speedway had 80 lines listing Top 5 in Qualifiers and top 10 in Mains. Names and Hometowns of the 80 drivers were also listed.
