Best Answer

Over the years Ford, Dodge, Oldsmobile, and Pontiac have all pulled out at on time or another. I think that Chevy has always been there, they may have pulled out once in the mid to late sixties but I don't know that for sure. They are currently part of NASCAR. In fact, some of the biggest names in the sport today drive Chevys. Dale Earnhardt Jr, Jimmie Johnson, Jeff Gordon, Jeff Burton, Robby Gordon, Kevin Harvick, Tony Stewart, and many more. It has usually been the car maker of the NASCAR champion for the last 20 years or more. What made you think that Chevrolet got out of Nascar? Chevrolet and Ford are the dominant two, specifically Hendrick Motorsports for Chevy and Roush Racing for Ford. Now, you may have gotten Chevrolet confused with Pontiac, which is also owned by General Motors. They left the sport after the 2003 season.

What is arena racing US?

Arena Racing USA is a motorsports series founded by former NASCAR chassis builder Ricky Dennis, son of 1970 NASCAR Rookie of the Year, Bill Dennis. Arena Racing features one-half-scale stock cars racing on a portable 1/10-mile (161m) track inside of an arena in the mold of indoor soccer and indoor football, meaning that events take place within an arena instead of the usual outdoor venue. The cars are capable of speeds up to 100 mph (161 km/h). Events are scheduled in a heat style format (like sprint cars), as oppose to NASCAR's format of one long race. The league promises a minimum of seven races per night. The Arena Racing season runs from October to March, which is the offseason of major series such as NASCAR and Formula 1. Currently there are three venues scheduled to host races for the 2008-2009 season. The Hampton Coliseum in Hampton, Virginia and Cricket Arena in Charlotte, North Carolina. The first venue will host events run by Arena Racing USA while Charlotte's event will be held with the help of Joe Gibbs Racing. A third venue, Grand Rapids, Michigan, will be launching their inaugural season in the fall of 2008 at the DeltaPlex Arena.
