Two episode premise ideas:
1. Austin Dillon does a DNA test, and the results come back positive for having "The Clutch Gene"
2. Austin Dillon gets an xray, and the results come back confirming that he has "That Dog in Him"
I think the cat and mouse game is in a good place right now. This season especially. Parity has been great and the state of the inspectors vs the garage arms race plays in to that.
Kinda makes sense since Toyota funded Bell's development so much to get him to this point.
That said this is pure conjecture and just a theory as to why him making 800k may be true if that number even is true. Just a potential rationale for it.
The only problem with their broadcast is the fact there's 4 of them doing a job meant for 2 or 3 guys, but even with that working against them they don't bother me as much as they bother a lot of you on here
I guess locking him down for 2024 gives them a year and a half to figure out if he replaces either driver or if they start up a 3rd team. All 3 possibilities are probably on the table.
