Nascar’s Organizational Structure
Make no doubt about it, NASCAR is a business and is run like any other major corporation. NASCAR is a family-owned business with Brian France as the third-generation CEO. Brian France is the son of Bill France, Jr., who passed away at the age of 74 in June of 2007.
The current President of NASCAR is Mike Helton. What is interesting about Mike Helton’s appointment as President of NASCAR in the NASCAR organization structure is that he is not a member of the France family. He was named as President in the NASCAR organization in 1999. That was a year that would see much change in the NASCAR organization in terms of safety because of the sudden death of Dale Earnhardt on the last lap of the 2001 Daytona 500 and it was because of this incident that NASCAR would begin to head numerous initiatives for the safety of drivers and fans.
The very nature of a family-controlled organization means that the family will control most of the proceeds. This has been a criticism by some who think NASCAR should be a joint owner-player type of profit sharing model. Other critics have made assertions that the NASCAR organization could do more for driver safety. And there have been accusations that the NASCAR organization is too monopolistic in its policies. But millions enjoy the sport promoted by this business and advertisers love the exposure they get. Plus, the championship prizes seem to be attractive to many drivers.
NASCAR is not publicly-traded on the stock exchange however its major sanctioning body is International Speedway Corporation which is publicly traded on the NASDAQ under stock symbol ISCA. ISC owns as well as operates 11 motor speedways plus is a major promoter of motorsports. Bill France’s sister Lesa France Kennedy and his uncle Jim France is the Vice Chairman of the Board and Chairman of the Board/CEO respectively.
Although not an organizational structure per se, NASCAR organization structure is built around three main events which could be thought of as three main lines of business: 1) The NASCAR Nextel Cup Series, 2) The NASCAR Busch Series, and 3) The NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series.
And a fundamental part of the NASCAR organization structure is the promoters. Promoter sponsorship has drawn some criticism from the fan base because more and more it seems that NASCAR is more about commercials than it is about racing. However, in order for NASCAR to stay alive as an organization it needs the sponsors. Ticket sales alone will probably not bring in the revenue needed to stay healthy in business.
The Nextel Cup Series is the most prestigious of the NASCAR organization. This series starts with the Daytona 500 at the beginning and consists of 36 races in 19 states and on 22 different tracks.
The second premier event in the NASCAR organization is the NASCAR Craftsman Truck Series. This event started in 1996 and was previously known as the SuperTruck Series. Its roots come from a display of a NASCAR-style pickup truck at the 1994 Daytona 500.
And the last premier event in the NASCAR organization is the NASCAR Busch Series which is considered to be like the minor leagues of NASCAR.

Do you think SAFETY at NASCAR slows techo advancements ?
Dumbing down the cars is not the answer, smartening up the tracks is; ever hear of the Autobahn?, but then again, Germany won't let an American piece of junk access to it. Backto my point. Auto racing is suppose to come up with advances in technologies ie; neck holders, drivers compartment roof flaps, placing the battery just in front of the left rear tire, Locktighting the lug nuts to replacement tires etc. etc. All of which are good... However other than thick SLURRYING the tracks/roads every couple years, there has been no technological advancement for roundie following/racing or driving on our own roads. Let's just keep banking left with 2or3 right & left turn races. Give me my 20 (if your lucky) miles to the gallon, road hazard tire repair ins., and pro rated tread wear. let's see who has the redist neck.
PS: Chevrolet was a Frenchman.
PSS: George Carlin had it right in the 80's when he said: NASCAR where can u see a 20 car pileup and not be in it
Aside from your question not really having a point and much of the grammar/spelling making it almost impossible to decipher what you are trying to say, NASCAR has never been about technological advancements. If you want that watch F1. NASCAR is about close racing between 43 drivers on an oval track. If they made it have the same technological developments as F1 it is very likely they would be able to have an entry of 43+ cars because the costs would be too high.
By the way the autobahns are among the most dangerous roads on the planet as 2/3s of the accidents that happen on them are fatal because of the speed people are going on them.
