Oiled Up: Lucas Dollars Might Lubricate More Racing Than Lucas Oils

-

From the October 2017 issue

-

In Corona, California, there’s a massive, wooden, camel-humped building that Sunkist erected during the 1920s in which to squeeze lemons. There, on the lower level of the old citrus-processing plant, Lucas Oil Products now manufactures many of its 272 different additives, fuel treatments, and lubricants. But upstairs are the offices and studios of the Lucas-owned I-10 Race Promotions and MAVTV, likely the widest-spread motorsports and motorsports media organizations in America.

-

“We were sponsoring tractor pulls and late models long ago. Both series fell apart,” explains Indiana-born Forrest Lucas, 75, who incorporated Lucas Oil in 1989 and, with his wife, Charlotte, owns the interconnected enterprises. “One guy got to doing dope, and the other guy­—I don’t know what happened to him. We picked the series up, cleaned them off, and put them on television.”

-

That was in 2004. Since then, I-10 Race Promotions has grown its portfolio to eight grassroots motorsports series, each of which now has “Lucas Oil” preceding its name: ASCS Sprint Car Dirt Series, Drag Boat Racing Series, Late Model Dirt Series, Midwest Latemodel Racing Association, Modified Series, Off Road Racing Series, Pro Motocross Championship, and Pro Pulling League. Beyond that, there’s the NHRA Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series, the Lucas Oil NHRA Nationals in Brainerd, Minnesota, the NASCAR Camping World Truck Series Lucas Oil 150 in Phoenix, and support for individual road racers, stock cars, drifters, monster trucks, snowmobiles, aerobatic airplanes, and the occasional Indy car.

-

Lucas Oil was already providing programming to the floundering MAVTV cable channel when it took control of and refocused it in 2011. “We moved toward motorsports because that’s our background,” says Bob Patison, executive vice president of Lucas Oil and president of MAVTV. “And when Speed went away and converted to Fox Sports 1, we saw an opportunity to step in and fill a need for motorsports programming.”

-

Lucas Oil’s privately held companies won’t reveal their fiscal commitment to racing, but it’s hard to imagine that the outlook for many of its series would have been rosy without Lucas’s backing. “When we initially took them over,” Patison says, “they all required subsidy from Lucas Oil to survive. A number have now become profitable. There are a couple that are right at that breakeven point. And there are a ­couple that are still limping along that need some help.”

And yet, Lucas’s highest profile marketing move was purchasing the naming rights for the Indianapolis Colts’ NFL stadium for a reported $121.5 million. Lucas Oil Stadium opened in 2008. “There are a lot of people who don’t watch racing,” Forrest Lucas sighs. “I know that.”

Still Waters Run Shallow

-

Lucas is now building its own venues, among them a stunningly sited off-road course near the Estero Beach resort in Ensenada, Baja California. But the most spectacular is Lucas Oil Speedway in Wheatland, Missouri, which includes a three-eighths-mile dirt oval, an off-road course, and the world’s first purpose-­built lake for drag-boat racing. The latter is some 4000 feet long and about eight feet deep, with shores designed to mitigate wakes to help the water calm after each race. With boats that can exceed 260 mph, that matters.

My Top 10 Moments of This Year...

I was suppose to do this last week but life comes at you fast. Don’t worry, I'll still do my Monday random thought later, but for now, this is my blog for last week. With this being the last week of the year, I figured I would do a year in review. Also, with this being the last week of the decade, I will do a top 10 of the decade next week. 

10. Falling back in love with my Avalanche. When the Quebec Nordiques moved to Denver in 1995, I was ready to be a fan. Right off the bat, they won the Stanley Cup and I was hooked. I loved rooting for them all the way up until the strike. After the strike, I quit hockey. But I made a goal last year to get back into it and boy did I ever. I get so amped for the games its the perfect compliment to  my Ku Jayhawks during these winter months. #GoAvsGo! 

9. Getting back out to the Lorik Ranch. Two and a half years ago, I became best friends with Anika Lorik. Her being the great person that she is- invited me out to some of their family functions back in 2017. That family is such a great family and they pretty much accepted me as part of their family. I spent Thanksgiving out there and if I wasn’t sick, I would have spent some of Christmas out there as well. Anyways, due to my rough year last year, I only made it out there once in 2018. I really missed it. Luckily I got a lot of my health back and I was able to become a regular attendee again. It never hurts to have another family or two. Thank you to all the Lorik’s. 

8. My Softball Family. I am a lucky guy. I have what I consider three families. This year I finally got to spend more time with my softball family. I made it to every game but one and that included 4 different leagues. I will admit for 5 of the games I had to watch from my vehicle with my bi-pap but for the entire summer, I got to sit in the dugout the entire season. Considering where I was this time last year, it is a huge deal. 

7. My trip to Dallas. In the middle of August, I went down to Dallas for the first time in a year and a half. I was nervous, anxious, excited and overwhelmed. My plan was to check out the new Texas Live by the Ranger Ballpark, a final game at Globe Life Park and some dirt track racing at Texas Motor Speedway. Made it to Texas Live. Got into the stadium before having to rush back to the car for my bi-pap, so I missed the game. And thanks to Greg Deatheridge for allowing me to sit in the suite close to an outlet, I was able to watch the races with the use of my bi-pap at times. Over all, it wasn’t a great trip, the baseball game was a big setback, but why focus on the negative? I got to do 2 out of 3 things plus spend time with my brother and sister in law and I didn’t have to use the bi-pap on the trip down or trip back. With all that in mind, I would say it was a very good trip. 

6. Board game nights. I’m a nerd at heart. If I'm not watching sports, I love being challenged to a board game, card game or puzzle etc.. Unfortunately, over the years majority of our board game players have gotten married and had kids. So the player pool has diminished. That all changed this year. I found out during a visit to the Lorik Ranch, that Tomi and his wife Katie love playing board games. We spent 2 or 3 weekends during the summer playing board games. They even introduced me to a new game--Betrayal at House on the Hill.

5. My 1st MLB Game in 2 years. I ended a 14 year streak of attending a MLB game at least once a year--last year. It really bummed me out but it motivated me to get better and I did. Finally in June, I was up in Kansas City for a Dr.’s appointment the same day the Red Sox were in town playing the Royals. I took a chance and went. I was very concerned about my breathing but as soon as I arrived at the park, I stopped worrying and 3 and a half hours later, I was still alive. I did it! Yaaaayyyy! 

4. Prior to my MLB game I had my Dr.’s appointment. This appointment was a huge deal. Here I would be doing my first testing after receiving Spinraza. I would now know for a fact whether or not it was working. I crushed it! My breathing went up considerable amounts. I knew I was feeling better and now I had proof. When you’re in your head as much as I am, hearing actual numbers proving your hypothesis is a huge boost. 

3. Getting back to my roots. As much as I love MLB games, Nascar races, Garth Brooks concerts etc.. I absolutely love the simplest things. And for me, that's Demolition Derby and Figure 8 Races. Basically, your County Fair. I missed the Cowley County Fair last year but not this year! I made it back to both days of Figure 8 Racing, a day of Bull Riding and I even managed to go to the Sumner County Fair Demolition Derby. I missed another one I wanted to attend but that was due to weather. This sissy boy doesn’t sit outside if it’s below 65. 

2. Kansas City in July. This was a great trip because I got my 6th dose of Spinraza but afterwards, I got to attend the Royals/Indians game. What made this even more special was my Mom, Cami and her kids Cayden and Natalie attended with us. This was a big boost because I was busy all day, including the game going into extras, yet I never needed my bi-pap! Two games in one season- I’m making my comeback. 

1. My trip to the Tulsa area. At the end of June the Salina Highbanks Speedway hosts the Lucas Oil Late Model Series. For the last few years, my brother Cris and his wife Kim have attended it. They keep telling me how awesome the restaurant and racing are. This was a win-win. The restaurant for Rush and the racing for me. This was a couple weeks after my testing so I knew I could do this. So we booked a hotel room in Tulsa and made our way down. This would be my first trip outside the state since I first got sick in March of ‘17. We went down Friday for the racing and came back to Kansas on Sunday. After 2 nights in Pryor Oklahoma at the Salina Highbanks, I knew Spinraza was working. The trip itself makes it number 1, but to see the results of Spinraza makes it number 1 times infinity. 

Alright everybody, I will write a random thought later today but none the less, thank you for reading my blogs this year. I look forward to another great year next year. Merry Christmas everybody!
