Nextel Cup???
Are an of you racing fans having as hard a time getting use to refering to Nascar racing as Nextel Cup as i am?I noticed someone has their user name as Nextel Cup fan.I saw the name and thought,this is going to be strange refering to what was Winston Cup racing as Nextel Cup.It just doesn't have a" ring" to it .How do you feel about this change?

I've stumbled over "Nextel Cup" more than once already... even though I tend to call NASCAR's top circuit the "Cup Series" most of the time... something I always did do, even when Winston sponsored it.
The other two series are "The Busch Series" and "the trucks".
And I can't wait for them to get started... I plan on going to about six races in 2004.
Boogity Boogity Boogity!!!

It sounds more like business and not like the past,
however many years "Winston cup" has been around.
It is different and most humans, I said most, do not like change

Young jeti you will be converted slowly and un-knowingly.
In the dead of night when you are asleep, you mind will be filled with thoughts
echoing….nextel………….nextel………….nextel.
Then one day five/ten years from now,.. when they change the name again,..you will once again say “it will always be Nextel Cup in my mind.….”
This is how “THEY” work.
Honestly....Enjoy the new season
