Chrysler Pulls out of NASCAR

I have worked in large industry most all my working career and if there is one thing I know and understand is the the end result has to be justified. Them owning Ferrari or any other business does not let you justify spending millions in a NASCAR venture that may not be paying for its self. Most of the time, every section has to stand on it own merit. We all, sometimes, think that racing is justified because of the exposure that it should offer to these companies. Some one has to put a quantitative number on that exposure and what does it really gain you. I have no idea what their thoughts are but it is apparent that they felt it was not quantitatively justifiable on Monday after the Sunday race. Now that doesnt mean that the bean counter is correct in their analysis but none the less, some one made that decision. Of course, there can always be a secondary motive for this move to let them regroup and get out from under the program as it now stands.
Who knows? Not I
