Richmond Idea....

[DJalltheway]

Hey Y'all,

Carl is selling some stuff to fix up his car, and one of the things that poped into my mind was the Chevy Rock & Roll 400... I was thinking this is a race he should try. I was thinking maybe someone can try to get a singer to sponsor him. If he would get someone sponsoring him he could get alot of press attention no matter where he starts or finishes. I also think he has an awsome chance of making it since it is a short track and he seems to do better at the shorter, flatter, tracks. Just a thought.

If he plans to fix it up for tracks like Loudon, Lowe's, etc... itll be really hard to set it up for Richmond. Brake ducts, body work, and so on. Not sure if that's an option for May.

The Rock & Roll 400 is in September, and really, isn't Loudon and Richmond kinda the same set-up wise? They are both kinda short, both flatter. Maybe I'm wrong, I don't work on the cars.. lol

Matt! Put your money where your mouth is. As the sponsor of a car you could follow in the footsteps of other bands and sponsor a car, plus provide the pre-race entertainment trackside! You could sing the Dildo Zone song and so on.

Let's face it - if NASCAR will associate themselves with the likes of Third Eye Blind And Tone Deaf they'll hire anyone.

Although I think, "Bring On The Goo" (the official working title) would topple most of the shoddy performances of the "National Anthem" and most definitely BON JOVI  from Gaytona, I'm not sure NA$COW would approve.  Especially since I refuse to play the song live without my giant 30 feet (a bunch of meters for you) high "stage props" that "go off" at the climax of the song. 

Unless you're talking about the other dildo song?  (Nobody sucks more ass than we do?)  That might go over.   Jay, did you play it at work yet?  How did the strippers/tippers like it? lol

But I only sponsor people who believe in spreading the Word of the Flying Spaghetti Monster.  My faith also will not allow me to have "Light" beer sponsors.  Only real beer where the alcohol content is 5.9% or above. 

Seriously though, all of the bands sponsoring cars crap was pre-arranged by General Motors (Chevrolet) since they sponsor the event.  And also sponsor all of the artists who perform at the event and appear on Factory backed Chevrolet-only cars.  Same thing they did with the Looney Toons a few years back.  Even McGlynn is not factory backed by Dodge or Chevy.  Sorry.  No hope there unless you can get a rival band in on the act.
