  • Truthfully, they need to pull a race from California and bring back “The Rock”. With things the way they are now, they’d make a lot more money at Rockingham than they do at California and look at the fuel alone they’d save on just the drive alone. Nascar needs to look at this situation.

    Hurray for my friend M. Pepper. You truly deserve this day. You always have interesting questions n answers & you are a great member of Nascar Nation. Not only that but you are a proud member of Junior Nation! Enjoy your day my friend! Celebrate and have fun.

  • California doesnt deserve two races, if any, and the Rock deserves at least 1.

    Congrats M. Pepper, enjoy your day!

  • I miss the Rock. It was always a great track. I wish they would bring it back. Since they got an ARCA race last year, maybe they can get a Nationwide race or something. I personally think that California doesn’t deserve two races. The racing there can be pretty dull at times.

    Congrats and have a good day, M. Pepper!

  • California’s races are boring, and, apparently not drawing fans. Rockingham, on the other hand, is legendary and would draw the fans, but does need some work before becoming re-certified for NASCAR. If I had my way, Auto Club Speedway’s races would be replaced by a race at Toyota Speedway (Irwindale) and a race that runs odd-years at Iowa and even-years at Kentucky.

  • I think the exclusion of the rock is a travesty. I have nothing against California but it just seems to me that the folks out on the left coast don’t have the passion or show the support that is shown in the east and south………..

    M Pepper, have a great spotlighted day!!

  • I think that CA should not get any races, much alone 2.

    M. Pepper. Stay warm and have a good day.

  • They need to split the races up 1 at California and 1 at The Rock and not just get rid of the Rock!!

    M Pepper, today is your day ENJOY, and have a good one!!!
    Bye the way tell your cuz, Dr.Pepper I said waz UUUP!!! HEHEHE LOL! just kiddin!!!

  • California is probably the track steeped with the least amount of tradition, and doesn’t deserve any of its two dates. If Rockingham is brought back, I would be a happy guy through and through.

    And hello to M. Pepper!

  • California-0 THE ROCK- 2 –California sucks !

    M.Pepper Have a GREAT day !!!

  • I like California. I liked the Rock. I believe each should have one date..

    To M.Pepper…enjoy your day. You deserve it 🙂

  • The reason they closed the Rock is because for some reason it did not draw the fans like the other tracks did. But I agree…California races are boring and have empty seats as well. I would love to have them open up The Rock again.

    M.Pepper…a good friend and contact…enjoy your day!!! *CHEERS*

  • California is a snoozefest and obviously doesn’t draw crowds–seems like a waste of money to me. I’d much rather see a race at the Rock than that place.

    M. Pepper, you are honored.

  • Enjoy your day as well Nascar Nation.

  • They need to bring the rock back and pull a race from Cal.

    M Pepper i love your Q & A’s Your a great part of Nascar Nation. Have a good day.

  • They ought to give one of the California races to Las Vegas. Its better racing plus it on the west coast. The Rock got screwed. If Nascar would have give them some time to remodel and re-do some stuff they would still be racing cup there.

    Congrats to my fellow Texan M. Pepper on your day of honor. Have a great day!

  • Okay, so leave 1 Cali race, 1 NHMS race, 1 Pocono race, and 1 MIS race. Install lights and make them night races. Replace the missing ones with Nashville, Kentucky, Laguna Seca, and The Rock.

  • I live out here in Calif, and my one of my all time favorite tracks is The Rock, I use to live 10 minutes from The Rock when I was growing up. All of my little Nascar group that i’m in out here would not mind taking one from Calif and giving it to The Rock. We know once the Auto Club Sponorship of the track is over this track will be shopping mall probably, California people just do not have enough time to devote to Nascar way to much to do out here. The Feb race is always up against the Academy Awards and that is as big as the Super Bowl out here, People throw huge Oscar Parties, they could care less about Fontana. The Rock should have never lost a race, especially to Calif.
    M Pepper enjoy your day, its yours do anything you like.

  • If anything the Rock deserves two races and California none. California is too similar to Michigan and that makes it lose appeal to me. The Rock is a unique track whose surface made the teams think smart in order to preserve their tires and made for an interesting Sunday. California has a lot of cautions, most of them coming from the large amount of debris such as hot dog wrappers that gets blown onto the track. Bring back ‘The Rock’!

    -Edit-

    Congrats, M Pepper.

  • OK this has been going on for how many years? And how many more years are we going to complain about things we cannot change. Everything is centered in the East with the exclusion of the Texas and the Arizona race. Its not a view of deserving 2 races it is the need and the revenue it creates for our state. We have a lot of NASCAR fans in California and I live about 3 – 4 hours from Fontana but I have many friends that attend both the spring and fall races.

  • Let’s face it, they never sell out Cali no matter what they try or do. I completely understand Nascar’s thinking in that the L.A. market is critical for the sponsor’s. That said, one race a year is more than sufficient. They might actually draw a larger crowd. We all miss the ROCK.
    M.Pepper today you shine brighter than all.

  • Bring back The Rock ! Congratulations M. Pepper ,enjoy your day !

  • NASCAR seems to have lost touch with the history that got them where they are now, Rockingham, North Wilkesboro, Darlington

  • It sucks.

    M. Pepper, your name just made me want Dr. Pepper, which then made me think of Mr. Deeds, which in turn made me LOL. Have a great day.

  • I hate both California races. They are so boring so I think that both the races there should be excluded and put new races in.

    M. Pepper have a great day!!

  • They should each have one race in my opinion. I miss Rockingham early in the season. It was a very challenging track and races were fun to watch there.

    However, I am biased to California because Jeremy won a race there (the most difficult win of his career his back was litteraly all blisters from the seat poor guy. They threw a towel down his back in victory lane and damn did he ever wince.) And California has some pretty good racing too.

    Congrats M. Pepper enjoy your day.

  • One race at California is enough.

    Congrats. to M. Pepper on her day of recognation. She has such a wonderful personality, and is a real asset here. Wouldn’t be the same without her.

  • I miss the Rock, I love the Rock, bring the Rock back!

    M. Pepper. Congrats on your day! Your a great person to have around here and I enjoy your Q/A’s very much. Also very fortunate to stand with you as proud members of Junior Nation…Ooh-rah!

  • LA is the #2 TV market in america. that’s why NASCAR races there and that’s why the NFL continues to be desperate to put a team there despite the fact that the people there with the exception of the lakers do not support their local sports franchises. LA is simply not a sports town. generally speaking the people there just simply lack passion for sports. but NASCAR, the NFL, and every other sports leauge will continue to try to force their products on LA LA land because it makes good financial sense, so get used to it.

    rockingham, on the other hand, is an old speedway with poor facilities. the attendance of the races there was also very poor the last 4 or 5 years they held cup races. a big part of the reason for this was because they were given crappy dates by NASCAR. the 2 rockingham races were held in feb. and nov. the last 5 or 6 years. i would loved to have seen what would have happened if, after taking 1 race away from there, they had moved the other 1 to a warmer date, i’ll bet it would have made a big difference in attendance. it was sad to see it close though, i used to love to go there for races and camp. the locals there were always so nice, and they always got excited on race weekends with all the race fans coming to their tiny town. kinda like martinsville.

  • California isn’t usualy that exciting of a race, and the Rock was

    Have a great day M. Pepper!!!

  • what was 2 rockingham races was too much, but i’m not saying it should be discluded, it should just have one california and one rockingham

  • The ROCK would have way better attendance than any race at Fontana
    have a grat one M Pepper!!

    Who agrees with me that Andy Murray’s Olympic Gold Medal Win and US Open win was nothing, but a fluke?

    Answers Favorite AnswerI agree. He defeated a tired Federer and a tired Djokovic in the finals of the Olympics and the US open. When Nadal comes back, Murray will go back to losing in the semi finals again and fall to # in the rankings, which is where that mama's choker boy belong, below the BIG .Murray is a top player, Novak was better today but Andy had a chance to win.no not a fluke he played well to win Olympics and Us openI guess it was also a fluke that he knocked out Federer in the semis?not me
