Just dropped on Speedsport.com:

Ever wondered how big #racing is in the U.S.? A new study has the receipts:

"PRI Study: Motorsports Generates $69.2 Billion To American Economy"

Study found that nationwide, the #motorsports industry supports more than 318,000 American jobs and generates more than $8.2 billion in tax revenue.

Here in #Oregon, motorsports generates $555.71M in total revenue including $200.94M in wages and benefits for 2,747 jobs.

I find Corey Lajoie annoying, he's very self-centric and whiny and I don't think has a healthy realism about his talents, so I can't help but find it kind of funny that he was told by Spire he wasn't a good enough driver for them in Cup anymore but hey if his sponsors are willing we can put ya in a Truck for these unsold races. Shows exactly where they clock his talent level.

Though in fairness to him, I can't imagine being raised by Randy.

I liked Regan Smith when he was a driver, was so excited when he won that Southern 500, but obviously I'm super not into the right-wing conspiracy culture he buys into and I think he's pretty dreadful as a color commentator. Muting and playing The Jesus Lizard a bunch instead.
