pretty small lucas oil on there.kind of like honorable mention.guess the lucas $$$$ arent there.but hell,they're wraps.maybe something bigger when the peak dollars run out
With the amount of oil needed in the racecars, as well as the trucks, I'll bet having an oil sponsor picking up the costs of that alone is pretty significant. Add in Peak with coolant and DEF and it all helps reduce the operational costs.Lucas Oil was that size and position when the whole deal was announced by Force and Lucas in the pits at Pomona during the World Finals last fall. It is not a deal to replace Castrol $$$$ by any means, no matter what you may hear.
to what country do the profits get wired to from these "American cars" ?
Yes, I noticed Force repeatedly used the word "program" in regards to his Lucas deal. That speaks to me that it is all of or more of a product deal than so much a money deal. Nonetheless, Forrest is a smart guy, and I'm sure he's putting into that program what he knows he'll get out of it with Force.With the amount of oil needed in the racecars, as well as the trucks, I'll bet having an oil sponsor picking up the costs of that alone is pretty significant.

David, thank you for posting the transcript, but it might have been better to post a link...![]()
I have heard that GM is moving everything, all factories, total production to China over the next couple of years, laying off all american labor in the end, anybody here know if this is true

I'm for all American cars in the sport like Dodge!
Ohh Err
Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram, Mopar and SRT are registered trademarks of FCA US LLC (and FCA stands for Fiat Chrysler Automobiles) and the parent company you guessed it Fiat Chrysler Automobiles N.V.
Face it you don't like Toyota because it's parent company is Japanese but hey those Italian Dodges are great American iron.

Wall Street is a country now?to what country do the profits get wired to from these "American cars" ?
The Lexus will be built in Georgetown beginning in late 2015. The ones they are putting together now are for training employees how to build them. The Georgetown plant builds some great cars. I am on my 3rd one from there (a new Avalon)Georgetown, Kentucky!
I saw a study some years back that classified the Toyota Camry as the most "American" car. It is assembled in the USA from over 90% domestically sourced parts. Whether that is still true or not, I don't know ... But I do know that they still roll a whole lot of Camrys (and Avalons, Venzas, Lexus ESs) down that assembly line in Kentucky ...
No I was taking your word for it. lolJesse, do you read Chinese? That was the best I could do.
The fact that Toyota is a Japanese company that employs US workers is fine with me.....but it's a Japanese product to me which I will stay away from. I like American cars.
Chrysler has been sort of a beach-ball, being tossed around between German, then Italian companies, (along with that stint with the 3 headed hell hound investment company) and it has survived all of this. The fact that an Italian firm that produces Ferarri would KEEP the Viper, let alone making a serious contender to it's supercar out of the Challenger/Charger (707 horsepower- BABY!) is all the more reason to love Chrysler/Fiat.....or is it Fiat/Chrysler? At least it isn't Damn-U-Chrysler anymore!
p.s. I was wondering when there was going to be a small car replacement that was up to the "caliber" of the Neon (pun intended), and Fiat came through with the Dart. The Avenger made a neat P/S, but I didn't like driving the one my Dad had.....too stiff and cold like a BMW...
No I was taking your word for it. lol
