I wonder how NASCAR’s counsel would describe organized labor lmao

So this just a countersuit against Nascar being a monopoly with no anti trust exemption in place. Attacking one team owner whose got financial heft to take on the Frances. Got it. Feels like this ends with collective bargaining by teams against Frances so and maybe force them sell their 10 tracks.

Ha ha, this is an "imaginative" legal theory, to say the least. But NASCAR has always been a clown show regarding their selection of legal representation.

MJ could buy nascar 9 times, they’re poking the wrong bear. NASCAR has always been owned and run by second tier management

The France Family has officially killed NASCAR. Pack it up boys and start over with something where the teams have equity that makes sense. The Monopoly that the Frances have on NASCAR has killed any potential growth that could be had. It doesn't need to be like this and the racing teams can fix it.
