New Acronym added to the NASCAR dictionary

This is the first article in a month long series of investigative reports.

The National Association for Minority Race Fans has developed a website, organized a movement and requested permission to protest. NAMRF, by virtue of exterminating racial bigotry (we assume), has vowed to end the injustice done them by NASCAR fans.

As you attempt to enter their website, you are treated to pictures depicting a Klansman holding a NASCAR flag, a burning cross on the track, and a confederate flag with the words “What we’re up against”. Being given just a few seconds to allow the images to burn into your mind, a digital clock appears, displaying 1 day to countdown, when the website will open to the casual viewer. Should you want to enter before the deadline, you must join their cause. Apparently, this “cause” is a closely guarded secret. Calls to the administrator remain un-returned at this writing.

 

 
funny how something like this never existed until Nascar made it a point to reach out to minorities in general to bring them in. Civil rights leaders in Atlanta have their head screwed on backwards! how many of you have seen ANY minorities being treated unfairly at a race? how many of you have seen a burning cross anywhere near a track? no? how about a klansman?...yeh i know klansmen are like bigfoot but if you listen to them .... 'they are everywhere! trying to kill us all!'

I know,I've gone to a few races, never seen anything there remotely against black people. I've seen quite a few black people attend as well. True, Nascar's audience is mostly made of white people, but they've tried to broaden their horizons. Bill Lester in the truck series is having a pretty decent run. Nascar institutes the diversity program to reach out to other minority groups and they get flack for it, go figures. Some people exist only to hate and cause trouble.

Minority race fan group cancels NASCAR protest

SportsLine.com wire reports
 

 



 

TALLADEGA, Ala. -- The National Association for Minority Race Fans canceled a protest planned for Sunday's EA Sports 500 NASCAR race after track officials and police expressed concerns about security.


"Our whole focus is to make NASCAR races a safer environment for minority fans," Jirard Brown, director of the minority fans group, said Saturday.


Instead of protesting, Brown said the organization's leaders will hold a news conference at 11 a.m. Sunday on the grounds of the state-owned International Motor Sports Hall of Fame adjacent to Talladega Superspeedway to outline future plans.


The group had sent a letter to the state asking to be able to hold a peaceful demonstration at Talladega, prompting track officials to meet with highway patrol and sheriff's department representatives to determine a site.


The group had been told it could protest in a field about a quarter of a mile from the track's main entrance.
