NASCAR may sue magazine because of April Fools Joke

Just when you thought NASCAR couldn't inflict any further harm to its business comes word that with all the turmoil facing the auto industry right now, Brian France was "very, very upset" about the recent April Fool's Day prank on Car and Driver magazine's Web site titled "Obama Orders Chevrolet and Dodge Out of NASCAR." France called the decision to run the article "very irresponsible" and added that the sanctioning body is still looking at options to remedy the damage.

"We were really very upset about that," France said. "And it may not be over with how we're going to approach that. That was an outrageous thing that those guys did."

We suggest Brian France save his money and instead of suing Car & Driver, focus on fixing the business he is running into the ground.
