Racing sons Jeb Burton and Chase Elliott did their fathers' proud

[#17D500winner]

"Until last Friday night, no other moment in Ward Burton’s racing career came close to bringing him to tears, including his victory in the 2002 Daytona 500."

Dada's money....



I am so very glad to see some up and comers in this sport.

 

[Johali]

I hope they have the talent, savvy and intelligence to get to cup and kick some ass.

Weird to see Jeb Burton racing because I remember during NASCAR Drivers: 360 when they followed Ward around, Jeb was just like a little 7-8 year old. I think he was up all night with diarrhea in one episode. I'm sure somebody will find that clip and it'll be all over YouTube if he ever wins (or contends for) a Cup championship.

What about Ryan Blaney, he's the most talented of them all

When he won his first truck race last year he got his fair share of attention but by all means, find some articles and post them. I'd enjoy reading them

Bout time for Andy to rain on this parade .

I can't wait to see these young guys ring in a new era of Cup racing.

It'll be a few years before these youngsters are in cup but if they have marketability, you can bet they'll be replacing a few drivers. I'm not willing to say any names - yet

The more crap that gets heaped on young Elliott, the more articles I'll post - simple as that. Surely this forum can be about more than just trashing race care drivers.

Johnson is 37, Kenseth 41, Jr. 38, Harvick 37, Biffle 43, Gordon 41, Stewart 42, Burton 45, Montoya 37, surely some others are getting up there too. These guys aren't all going to race until 55 like Mark Martin.

Unfortunately, many of the old timers won't have a choice and will be shown the door in favor of these young up and comers.

A famous name can open a door but it takes talent to keep a ride.

 

[Johali]

Racing son Ryan Blaney is kicking butt in the ARCA race, at half way 11 cars on the lead lap, hope he keeps it up.

 

[#17D500winner]

Looks like Boston may make a race out of it.

 

[#17D500winner]

Interesting move by Poole.

 

[Johali]

I better redo this to make it on topic so the topic police don't get me.
"Nascar Racing son Ryan Blaney is kicking butt in the ARCA race, at half way 11 cars on the lead lap, hope he keeps it up."

 

[JimmieGordon2448]

Thought Blaney was going to catch Poole, good race. Oh yeah, why does Penske run Dodge in Arca?

I believe that those are Cunningham Motorsports (developement for Penske) cars. Why they run Doodge, I don't know.

Thank you, I just thought it weird.

 

[StandOnIt]

Penske has an engine department, so does Gibbs, the sell their engines to ARCA teams. Maybe Nascar has a rule that you can't put a different make engine in another manufacturer's car, so the Penske has to go in a Dodge.
