Not a big fan of the name chance...It just doesn't roll off the tongue like Arca re/max does...Although given that Menards is involved in the title maybe the Arca sideburns series?

At least it isn't the ARCA camping world series

[happy2129harvick]

I wonder why The Rock isn't returning to the schedule?

All this past season they were saying ARCA "Racing" Series. I wonder what was up with that.

[Bhester]

ARCA is loveing retarded. The first two races are the only plate races? Give me a freakin break.

[Kevin Lordbonte]

I wanna see ARCA at Martinsville. Remember than final Nationwide race there in 06? Double that amount of cautions with atleast 2 caused by Darrell Basham and Wayne Peterson being so slow the field piles up attempting to get around them. That'll surely get people to watch. 

[Rusty Shackleford]

Series sponsored by Menards now, plus Kimmell sponsored by Menards... Oh God, don't let Frank buy YET ANOTHER championship!

He's been sponsored by Menards the last couple years. No conspiracies here.

[Rusty Shackleford]

That's not a conspiracy...

But HERE'S one...

<sarcasm> Brian France switched drug tests with Jeremy Mayfield, framing a perfectly innocent man! </sarcasm>

I am glad there going to ORP though. That should be a fun race.

[EricSturrock]

ARCA still does not have a primary sponsor. last year they were ARCA racing series presented by Re/Max & Menards & this year they are ARCA racing series presented by Menards not ARCA Menards Series

TV races are

In addition to Daytona, other events scheduled for live and/or same-day coverage in 2010 include Talladega Superspeedway on April 15, Chicagoland Speedway on June 4, events at Pocono Raceway on June 11 and August 6, Michigan International Speedway on June 17, Iowa Speedway on July 16, O'Reilly Raceway Park on July 28, Kansas Speedway on October 7, and the season finale at Toledo Speedway on October 16.

What it probably is is no company in their right mind would want to be associated with a series where the cars don't have brake pedals..I'd make a women driver reference here but there are too many women on this forum-including one in blue,who i'm afraid  of.

[openwheeler]

I wonder why The Rock isn't returning to the schedule?

Yeah agreed, one of the big parts of The Rock returning was to be involved with the ARCA series. I wonder if it was too expensive?

[j5tr]

well, your probably paying a little bit less to be the featuring sponsor than the title sponsor, but still get pretty much the same benefits from it.

This schedule sucks. end of story, first off, no Rock, which i dont understand, i thought that Andy bought the track partly because he wanted to spotlight ARCA on it, since Nascar left and went to Cali.........that went well............ and im glad to see Texas back on after a great race last year........oh thats right they arent going back there either...... or add a track like Martinsville, or Darlington, how cool could that be, and this big gab between race one and two is just weird.
