Why does this keep coming up?..........After reading the original post I can't tell whether the it was Pro-XXX or Anti-XXX...........What is the point. Either way, XXX is making an effort to make racing affordable. If that is done here in the US, or abroad in China, who cares? More cars equals more racing. It is as simple as that.

Bottom 1% of scumbag traitors. If it costs a little more, buy it here, if they don't make it here (like clothing) buy it from them, but we've lost 3 1/2 million jobs in past three years and losing more is coming. This guy running the country and his Harvard and Yale stooges in the WH don't care, the more they can put out of work and on welfare the more voters they have. Why do you suppose they tried so hard to get Puerto Rico to vote for statehood? Why do you suppose they are ressing so hard to 15 million illegals to be citizens and able to vote? Why have they been trying to get the vote for convicted felons, including the 1.1 million in our jails and prisons? That would give them control of this country permanently. It's Econ 101, Socialism 101. If your party offers people everything they need to survive you will take it. These people understand that.
Lawlessness + liberalism = HELL - NYC, Detroit, Chicago,
Seattle, LA Who the H runs those cities.

While he types away on his computer, watches TV and talks on his cell phone that were all made with Chinese components. Let's not have a double standard, one standard will do just fine...

Not for nothing, but that argument always just seems like a gigantic red herring. There is a huge difference between buying a product made in China or somewhere overseas because there isn't an American option and choosing to buy the foreign product.

All of those items weren't always built overseas or South of the border. At one time, people purchasing those items also had a choice.

I realize that. It just seems like willfully changing/distorting the topic to claim that people using Chinese/Japanese electronics in 2012 is the same thing as people using a foreign product when there is an American choice.

Sorry, I don'y buy it (no pun intended). When given the choice, 99.9% of Americans will choose the less expensive product. I take it that you're in the .1%?

But Cubic money is everything. They are still patriots. Cheaper is always better and God and country is now equal to lolly pops.

At first, and with good reason, people were worried about a sprint car chassis being built in China for safety reasons because China does put out a lot of substandard crap. Now that they have proven to be safe, and with Brady Bacons urging, one of the most storied and respected teams in all of Sprint car racing has not only went with a triple X, they won with it, and it was only it's second time out last weekend at Ocala..http://www.hoffmanracing.com/news.htm
Drivers from the past 82 years reads like a who’s who of racing: Jeff Gordon, Tony Stewart, Tracy Hines, JJ Yeley, Kasey Kahne, Kenny Irwin Jr, Rich Vogler, Dave Darland, Johnny Parsons Jr., Tim Richmond, Jay Drake, Brian Tyler, Robbie Stanley, Eric Gordon, Steve Butler , Jerry Coons Jr. Ryan Newman, Dave Steele, George Snider, Tom Bigelow Shorty Templemen, Don Branson, Eddie Sachs, Bill Puterbaugh, Elmer George, Pancho Carter, Roger Ward, Andy Michener, Kyle Larson . In all approximately 127 drivers have competed in the Hoffman cars.
Of those there are four father/son combinations , Dick and Dickie Gaines, Jim and Tracy Hines Kerry and Dave Norris, Clark and Shorty Templemen. Two brother combinations, Larry and Steve Cannon, Pancho Carter and Johnny Parsons Jr. HAR also had a stepgrandfather and stepgrandson combination of Elmer George and Ed Carpenter.
Half the lies they tell about me aren't true.

That's cool. Maybe I will have that made into a hat pin!..........
"I AM" in the the bottom 2% of traitor scumbags. It is nice to see that you put so much thought into that statement...........
For those who are obviously clueless, my car, although it runs in the back, would not be on the track if I had to pay the ludicrous prices that American made parts demands. Also for the record, without many of the cheaper cars that are running your precious sport would be dying a faster death than it already is...........
I am so tired of the people that hold onto their ideology to their own doom. You should be championing the XXX chassis. They, unlike most of the American part companies, are making an effort to bring the sport back into the lives of the common man. Something that local short track racing has not been for quite some time...........Maybe you should be thrilled that people from outside of this country like Sprint Car racing enough to actually join the sport...........Other than that, this commie loving traitor will continue to run whatever parts he can to keep his car on the track...........Your view of me is your problem, not mine.

The Hoffmans didnt win with a XXX chassis. Darren Hagen won running a Chalk Chassis. At least get your facts straight before posting them.

Hey Cubic, just out of curiosity, what kind of chasis does the race team you own run.
