Unless you're hiring someone to appear on reality shows, it's a lousy way to select an employee.<br /><br />If NASCAR wants a reality show, the 'Drive for Diversity' is a much better candidates. Heck, even my mother, who is decidedly not a racing fan, learned from and enjoyed that five- or six-episode series on Roush's 'Gong Show' a few years ago.<br /><br />Dan, I think you missed 'incentivize', but I'm not sure.

Dumping the top 35 makes qualifying and the Daytona Duel races watchable again. Plus, allowing testing should help the competition aspect. So there are positives, it's not the land of doom and gloom.<br /><br />The negative is all recent NASCAR marketing moves have just been stunts that are useless to the sport in the long term. We had the #NASCAR page that didn't go over so well. They turned the drivers into characters promoting the Chase (which flopped looking at the ratings). Now a staged reality show segment is the next big marketing plan. It's frustrating the sport has to go to these lengths to chase sponsorship.Buschseries61noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2080132098367510832.post-23210553795792085662012-10-19T14:35:34.618-04:002012-10-19T14:35:34.618-04:00NASCAR will hired guns astroturfing Facebook, Goog...NASCAR will hired guns astroturfing Facebook, Google+, Twitter and other social media on behalf of NASCAR.

Do we really want professional wrestling combined with reality TV? Professional wrestling was once very popular until people got sick of watching fake "excitement" and I think reality shows heading that way. Fans want real and I think NASCAR ratings and attendance are showing that.<br /><br />Why doesn't NASCAR pattern themselves after a successful format? How about professional football? They play for real and a touchdown counts as much in the first quarter as in the last. The players don't coast around staying out of trouble until the last few minutes. The referees don't throw a flag near the end to make an exciting finish.OSBORNKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06265276174788619591noreply@blogger.com
