The takeaway from this is that NASCAR has gone out of its way to say there is nothing bad happening in terms of sponsorship and the costs of competing in the sport, yet Furniture Row Racing has gone from winning a Championship last year and dominating parts of this year to shutting down because they can't find the necessary funds and sponsors to continue running. If a Champion that won many of the races last year and several this year can't find a sponsor what hopes do the others have? NASCAR is in trouble.
