She has also been pretty adamant that she doesn't want to work forever either, and she has a son coming up through the ranks, and if she's smart she will take some time to truly enjoy it.

The question I have is whether Brad will be subjected to all the crap Chase had to put up with when it happened to him?

Just to throw this out there, the Pilot Debrief show on Youtube has a video out covering the flight profile of the Biffle plane. Being the professional he is, Hoover draws no conclusions yet, but it seems apparent that that plane was in some kind of serious trouble almost from the moment the...

Denny is as much of a working class hero as most of the garage, and a hell of a lot more than most. Doesn't mean you have to like him, but you SHOULD be honest about him.

Well, he's an absolute first ballot Hall of Farmer, regardless of whether you like him or not. The same goes for Joey Logano and Kyle Busch.

I'm not so sure. The more people in the industry talk, the more you find people that don't like Larry at all.

Honestly, probably both. I'm on your side on this one though. If Rick and Roger and Joe would have refused to play ball from the start, I guarantee you this would have gotten settled long ago. Roger has a problem though. As the owner of a racing series, supporting the lawsuit was inviting the...

The teams wanted something, and NASCAR was offering NOTHING, so it's pretty hard to frame this as a NASCAR win. Also, sometimes perception is more important than reality, and the perception among everyone but the most dedicated NASCAR homers, is that they did a terrible job defending themselves...

I don't see how Phelps and O'Donnell survive this, but Jim my keep them around just to avoid having to admit how much they helped poison the well. In a publicity traded company they would be on the street.

The France family forgot what it meant to be a benevolent dictator. Someone had to remind them. Also, for the first time they ran into somebody who had FU money and the willingness to use it

To be perfectly honest, I wasn't the least bit surprised when Tony started to wean himself off NASCAR once his driving days were over, and even less so once he started his relationship with Leah. I always felt NASCAR team ownership was just a means to an end for Tony, and not some life goal. I...

For me, the question was never really whether the teams NEEDED the money, you can play that game all day long. For me it was a question of whether they DESERVE a bigger piece of the pie, and I believe they do. I am also sympathetic to the fact that the "cost saving" car has been anything but...

True, but why did it take Denny to get Jordan involved, when he's been a fan for years, and regardless, Denny really put himself out there while just about everyone was hiding in their offices or wherever. Denny could have just pussed out like everyone else and kept quiet, but he didn't, and I...

I'm not real sure I would have agreed to that. They should have been made whole.

I agree, but it was still pretty cowardly for the rest to let the other two twist in the wind like that. Not a particularly proud moment for ANY of them, especially the heavy hitters.
