When it comes to people flying themselves, I also think about JFK Jr. Another one we lost way too soon.

They also fly distances that most people would drive. Dale Jr’s deal happened when he was preparing to go to Bristol and the Hendrick crash happened flying to Martinsville. Bristol and Martinsville are 3 and 2 hours by car from Charlotte respectively. I would feel safer in a car than a private...

If the world had more Greg Biffles, it’d be a better place. Another one taken way too soon. One of the greats but got too few years in top equipment. He should’ve gotten the 19 after Carl Edwards suddenly retired. I think he would’ve surprised some people.

Dennis sees himself as a hero of the working man. Dennis is also delusional

We know that Dennis is an impulsive nut so this tracks for him. Jordan would've been rich no matter the outcome.

This lawsuit was a huge risk for the sport. I am happy that the charters are permanent. Without some kind of spending cap though, the funding structure of the sport is still broken. If a guy like Corey Heim can’t get a ride and move up because he doesn’t bring money, you know something’s wrong.

I’m happy that cooler heads prevailed.

People were talking about the idea of “franchises” in NASCAR twenty years ago. I remember Ray Evernham being a proponent of it. Jordan didn’t invent the idea.

If we’re predicting famous #14 drivers, I am going to guess Ron Hornaday. No reason, just vibes.

Not a good night for Dennis

If Dennis is running 23XI then they’re in trouble because everything I have seen from him tells me that he is a grade A moron. NASCAR is a monopoly and likely even an illegal one but the remedy for fixing that could give us our own version of the CART/IRL split. Is the juice worth the squeeze...

NASCAR’s social media is promoting the Snowball Derby today. Coincidence?

Dennis was a poor choice to be the Norma Rae of NASCAR team owners.

I would bet my law license that Dennis’s lawyer wants him to shut the **** up and get off Twitter.

But the owners aren’t employees of NASCAR. No one is arguing that Todd Gilliland should be able to sell Front Row’s charter. In this analogy, NASCAR is an apartment/commercial building owner.

In theory, you could do that. As long as your lease allows it and your landlord approves it. It’s common in commercial real estate. Businesses do it all the time. If I own a bar and rent the space and I sell my bar to a new owner, they also purchase my obligations under the lease.

A charter is a temporary license to get certain benefits from NASCAR. You never truly own it because it can expire and go away. It is analogous to a leased property, to which you can sell the rights. NASCAR is the “landlord.”

That’s a flawed argument and comparison.

This lawyer is a moron. You can assign a lease to a new tenant, with the approval of the landlord. In fact, that kind of sounds like selling a charter! Also, Dennis praising NASCAR in the past is irrelevant to them being a monopoly.

Dennis would be a nightmare client for any lawyer.
