Front Row Motorsports (FRM) is not a top tier team ... Furniture Row Racing (FRR) is.

Landon Cassill out at Front Row Motorsports http://nascar.nbcsports.com/2017/10/10/landon-cassill-will-not-return-to-front-row-motorsports-in-2018/

If that is truly the case I don't blame him a bit .. it's a dying sport and he's not the least bit fond of the France clan. He has generational wealth .. probably doesn't see the point at putting himself at further risk for pennies on the dollar.

Matt probably has his price and if teams aren't willing to meet it then he's fine walking away. Matt's a sharp guy .. I'm sure he's fully aware of the market.

In what whacked out sport does Danica Patrick get a job, while Matt Kenseth is forced into retirement?

I think they just made a mistake in that first article .. I think their use of the word sponsors was probably not accurate. They may have meant employer .. as in JGR not renewing his contract.

Not that this means anything, but Matt sold his house. It's been for sale for a few years though. https://www.realtor.com/news/celebrity-real-estate/matt-kenseth-finally-sells-carolina-home/ http://www.latimes.com/business/realestate/hot-property/la-fi-hotprop-matt-kenseth-20171003-story.html

Ryan Newman doesn't owe anybody jack ... he was racing to stay in the championship hunt. I also didn't notice him do anything that was out of line in regards to how he raced the #24. In my opinion Chase blew his own win .. failed to block, or even change grooves to really thwart Kyle. As for...

Not sure how I've managed a top 4 position with having (zero) top 5's and only (5) top 10's. I guess I'm consistently average week in and week out.

He definitely wasn't sandbagging .. dude would kill for a win. He did have a potential race winning car, but flubbed some restarts. He needed a huge long run at the end to have a chance .. just didn't seem to have the car at the point to win it unless he crew would have got him out front on...

They need to pummel these teams when they get caught cheating ... wins should be removed, and 2nd place cars should receive the victory. If you get caught cheating you receive no points for that race. You have to make the penalties really hurt to get them to quit doing it. Now it's basically...

I'm not his biggest fan, but I watched him diligently hand out candy and trinkets to fans at Talladega, while other drivers jacked around and joked with each other. He seems like a pretty good guy overall, but can also come off as an annoying know it all.

No idea .. other than they both have Wisconsin ties.

Anyone think Barney might be trying to pressure Toyota to come up with some dough to help keep the #77 open? It seems like figuring a way to keep things open is in everyone's best interest. Toyota speaks highly of Matt Kenseth, but they made it clear that they were not comfortable being a...

That #77 situation is goofy .. Barney Visser seems like a bit of a flake.

Sounds like the #77 is getting pretty close to shutting things down .. they can't find sponsorship. http://kickinthetires.net/index.php/2017/09/12/furniture-row-racings-no-77-closure-inevitable-without-last-minute-sponsor/

It would be hilarious if Matt was playing word games with the folks on social media ... Nope, I'm not the replacement for Danica Patrick and the #10 ... I'm actually going to be piloting an SHR car with a different #. Actually my hope is that Matt winds up staying with Toyota in the #77, but if...

There may be something to it, but I don't really think of charisma when I see Aric Almirola ... Matt's not exactly Mr. Charisma either though ;)

Maybe the better question is, why would Smithfield tie themselves to a mediocre talent like Aric Almirola?

All things being equal ... who in their right mind would choose to go with Aric Almirola over an available Matt Kenseth?
