Why not a Mopar Interdisciplinary Pro Stock Car and a Stock Car, Too?

 For as much spirited communications Mopar gets over the Viper and its jobs it helped save, the Stock Car Program and the Pro Stock Car Program gets a close 2nd and 3rd in Auburn Hills. My answer is why not combine all 3 at once.

People like Detroit Marquees and people like to see their Cars and Jobs win. I feel that wanting to see an Interchange Pro Stock Car/ Stock Car would be fun to watch, especially when Dodge hightailed it after the 2012 Cup Series Championship and Dodge's Pro Stock Program has not been the same since Allen Johnson left.

I would find that I would want to see a Mopar Championship Defense as an unresolved of the Winston Cup Era that needs to be resolved. I would believe if I was Mopar, I would untangle the web of International Interests in my Company.

I would say that would be easier said than done, and if I was Mopar, I would want to not tie up the phone lines on someone that I would regret later. Especially when my mast died prematurely and affected adversely the fortunes of Petty Enterprises, Dodge and the Sport.

This would be my neurotic showing and that is very common now, but, I feel that it is coming from a genuine place, especially when the Championships could have gone differently. This is not new, especially if the merchandising directions are redirected towards Hendrick and it feels like we need a New "The Team", even though that would come 15 Years too late.

It is not easy, and neither is overcrowding Owner Charters.

Restomopars: The Stock Car Revival

Even though I am taking from the Car Restoration and Detail division, which is a personal hawk of both sides of my family, but, I feel more comfortable saying Restomopars: The Stock Car Revival.

Let's say we started storming ARCA or the K and N Series just to not be a media speciality. I feel if this was true, bring yourself, and not just hope to jack Furniture Row back to Detroit from Toyota just to get Erik Jones with the Detroit Marquee.
(All that would happen in time, but, desire not to be home all the time or be searching all the time or both all the time has to be in the past.)

It feels as if bringing the jobs so that the merchandising is easier to do. My feeling in merchandising is to tell us in advance of a special paint or don't do it at all. People don't like flip cars that was someone else's story just to restart someone else again. I feel like keeping the Seattle SuperSonics as a true expansion, again, and, the sponsor is part of that story and not Pop Culture all the time.

And, the only good way is up and to force the topic on the pros. It goes both ways as in a Cup Star doing Modifieds for more races on the Modifieds, but, that doesn't always mean he/she does them well and I'd rather see the tougher for the regulars and easier for the fly-in every weekend, not just preapportioned to spend money.

More than any other year, I'd feel the celebration and the 0 O'Clock and the relief of the holiday more than the trappings, the remember the merchandise, the celebration or worse yet, the partying. It doesn't have to always involve the rest of the world, but, I feel comfortable if I knew what paint was that car like F1 and even if its not an A1 Piece or Regular Driver, at least I'd win on paint and not financial shenigans.
