    Well, he was a crash at Daytona away from snagging the regular season championship from Byron. Fine, use The 24 if it makes you feel better.

    If Toyota was serious about his future prospects, they would have found him a home. The "felon" doesn't let talent die on the vine, he makes room SOMEWHERE, and he's just a car owner.

    If he's NOT pissed off over his situation, I wouldn't want him as a driver. Right NOW he is probably better than a third of the Cup field. The whole thing is about as absurd as using Secretariat to plow corn fields.

    2026 Silly Season

    I don't feel that is an accurate description of the situation. The reason the 48 team isn't advancing in the playoffs is self inflicted mistakes, set up by having some terrible luck earlier in the year. I feel like for much of the year, the 48 was faster than the 9. At one point they were...

    Joe Gibbs has power, why does nobody seem to want to align with him? There are some rumblings about JGR-23XI, but Denny's connection to both keeps it under the radar. Haas left the HMS alliance because Ford threw a **** ton of money at them. How'd THAT work out? Why did the Garage 56 deal go...

    How did Rick neuter Chastain? He asked Ross not to wreck HIS cars, he didn't say anything about not wrecking the other 30 some odd cars on the track. I think what you interpret as neutering was really Trackhouse's cars becoming less competitive as the teams got more familiar with the new car...

    Trackhouse Kaulig (for now) and Spire din't seem to have any issues with how Chevy does things, and now it looks like Haas is crawling back, so why should Jimmie-come -lately get a better deal than they are getting? As for how Toyota got JGR, lets not forget who got JGR off the ground, and...

    From what we were told at least, he simply wasn't interested in car ownership at that time, or ANY time until he DID. If Cup car ownership was some long term goal, I don't think he ever does the Indycar thing. You can't have this thing both ways, Rev. You can't slam Chevy or Hendrick for not...

    I don't think I have to tell you that Jimmie was offered an ownership stake in HMS just like Jeff a couple of times, but turned it down. Perhaps if Jimmie had shown ANY kind of interest in car ownership years ago, Chevy and or Rick would have greased the skids in that direction, but if you...

    Time for NASCAR to End its Season in September

    Weeknights are a loser from an attendance AND a TV viewing standpoint. I think that makes it a non-starter.

    Well, I think people treat you the way you LET them treat you, and if you don't invoke a penalty for mistreatment, they'll likely do it again.

    You don't have to take every customer who knocks on the door, either. Part of the fun of having F U money is not having to kiss anyone's butt.

    Proof that Rick Hendrick is a better person than I am. After what went down a few years ago, I would have told Gene to go pound sand somewhere......

    Jimmie had a chance to be part OF the "Chain Gang", but wasn't interested in being a car owner then, and Spire and Kaulig were here in NASCAR building up their spot on the Chevy food chain while Jimmie was off pretending to be an Indycar driver. As for Childress, he's a REAL legacy, he was...
