A medical marijuana advocate was hoping to get national attention sponsoring a "cannabis car" at the NASCAR race Saturday night at the All American Speedway in Roseville.
Brad Lane with Cannabis Planet Productions does a TV show about medical marijuana. He was expecting his logo all over car number 38. But that didn't happen.
"The reason we're on TV is to bring our message to the mainstream, and this was another way to get our message out to the mainstream."
Lane thinks the logos weren't allowed because of the marijuana leafs, but NASCAR says it never got any paperwork required to approve Cannabis Planet as a sponsor.
Car number 38 was able to run the race, but with no sign of anything having to do with cannabis.
Phillip Dugan with Dynamic Motor Sports owns the car and says he sought out sponsors like Cannabis Planet.
"I'm not mad about anything, but I'm a little frustrated. That fact that we're trying to bring a new crowd to NASCAR, we're trying to do new things," says Dugan.
