Not the recession or Obama`s fault. Bud pulled out. Sence it is now a forgin company you can expect more of the same. Soon to be the X king of beer`s.

Actually it ended for me when they stopped running it at George Winter park several years ago. That was a very unique coarse. I loved those short streight`s and tight turn`s.

very true Bobby, I kind of felt the same way about GWP, however the fact that it was St. Louis still almost made up for it...

You can also thank A-B Inbev for pulling the sponsorship (I think they pulled it on Brandon Bernsteins Bud king t/f car too. Thank you Carlos Burrito or whatever his name was.He said if the Inbev deal went through he (they) wouldnt change a thing. Anheuser-Busch Budweiser used to be the crown jewel of St Louis,not anymore!!!! Rob

The Inbev idiots are leaving it wide open for someone like Yuengling to step up and start an ad campaign something like "Yuengling - Real American Beer"

That big eagle logo would be pretty on a lot of race vehicles

St.Louis wouldn't have happened if not for the Seebolds stepping in at the last minute.

The Seebolds lost the Budlight sponsorship as well!! I guess we got out of the sport at the right time!
