Legacy Motor Club and Newmar

[Kevin D Pem]

I’ve officially resorted to a full-scale financial excavation, checking under the sofa cushions for quarters, rummaging through old coat pockets like a raccoon with a mission, and logging into my bank account while the teller laughs so hard she nearly falls off her chair.

I even called all my friends (both of them) and watched them apply the ancient art of selective hearing. So yeah… let’s just say the outlook is about as bright as a solar panel in a cave.

So what you saying? Newmar is just following the cash!

Not at all. I was making reference to being financially embarrassed.

Sure, this from someone who takes his coach in for service and comes out with a Essex.

@No Plan , we travel to a few NASCAR events during the year as well. Let us know what events you might be seeing, we might be there.

I will attend races based on my geographical location during my travels in 2026. Highly unlikely anything out East as I spend my time in the West. So the California, Nevada, Arizona, and Texas races would definitely be on my radar next year.

hummm! Jim you're a good man!

You think your audience is listing?

 

[Boat Bum]

I listen, I like his turn of a phrase, if for nothing else.

NASCAR needs to go back to the old scoring system and get away from the car of tomorrow to return to the cars of the early 2000's.. thats when it was racing..

I believe they are changing the scoring system for 2026. Just not announced yet what it will look like. I figure they won’t change the car much for a while. Too much invested in it, but they are going to a higher horsepower engine for a few tracks.
Someone did say how funny it was that we have production cars coming out that have more horsepower then the race cars.

Thinking I listened to this kind of argument back in the 90's

Hey, I miss the old school stock car racing back when the cars were real, but I'm a dinosaur. That said, I do think it is rather smart for Newmar to support these racers and their fans. When it comes to diesel pusher motorhomes it isn't like anybody can grow the total addressable market (aka the TAM). It is a red ocean battle where you have to take customers away from an already established set of competitors. Seeing Prevost-based coaches in the infield is interesting, but out of reach of most RVers interested in motorhomes. Seeing a sea of Newmars in the infield has impact.

This is a highly visible segment that influences both men and women on their brand biases and purchasing decisions. If you don't believe me, just ask the likes of companies and products like Tide, Busch Light, e.l.f Cosmetics, Ally Financial, Victoria's Secret and Coach, AdventHealth, and PNC Bank to name a few. Women represent roughly 41% of the fanbase. Betting on Nascar influences both men and women and promotes the brand far beyond the drivers and their teams. it impacts their fans both in the stadiums and at home watching on TV.

Best,
