In about 2001 or 2002 I worked on Ernie's house for about 3 or 4 weeks.
This was after his bad accident and retirement.
He was a Much more humbled individual. Nice guy then. Took us in his garage and talked about what ever.
But his head wasn't right after that last lick.

I saw Ernie at a restaurant in Charlotte about 10 years ago .... it probably took him 5 minutes to figure out which bill in his wallet was the "$20 bill". Felt bad for him.

We had a Woodys Fantasy Racing League starting around 2001 until last year. For the last 10 years, participation has declined, and this year 3 people signed up. We killed the league and moved on.

Do away with the tax benefits associated with advertising, and watch the sponsors vanish. It's all about the money.

Just get back to stock car racing. If one manufacturer is faster than the other, leave the rules along and let the others catch u on there own. In their efforts to even out competition, they have drove cost through the ceiling and the racing has declined to the point, that they keep changing the rules looking for some magic formula, to return them to their glory days.
