Stenhouse out

[Whiskyb]

wow

 

[Hawaii808]

...and body men throughout the garage rejoiced.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

'Bout time.

 

[LewTheShoe]

...and body men throughout the garage rejoiced cried because their job security just took a nosedive.

Fixed that for ya, LOL.

 

[sdj]

My guess is, this saved Roush a couple million dollars in pay, but, that is just a guess.

 

[Charlie Spencer]

I wish Jack had waited a while before announcing Chris. I have a bunch of 'Kenseth to the #17' jokes already to go.

He has one more run at Talladega to build up a backlog for them.

 

[JGR_20]

Next week JTG announces Stenhouse Jr to the 37 for next season...

No one is more eager than Stenhouse to go big or go home on the wrecker.

(except AD...)

Newman coming in and making the playoffs his first year sealed Rickys fate

 

[ChexOrWrex]

 

[DUN24]

Always wondered if Jack was still bent he had to let Buescher go, I guess this answers that.

 

[TexasRaceLady]

hehehe

This will directly lead to more single file green flag runs that I know everyone on this board enjoys especially at plate tracks.

 

[jws926]

Wow , but shouldnt be surprised either.

 

[Blaze]

hehehe

Gotta fully agree here.

 

[Truex_rox]

I hate to see Stenhouse go, but this is the exact kind of decision Roush needed to make. Everybody has been pointing out Newman's performance in the 6, and rightfully so. He has helped to right the ship and move that car and crew up the board. Buescher has been quietly stringing together a season of unrivaled consistency and outstanding performance in a seldom celebrated or relevant team. This is a duo I anticipate great things from in 2020, and they could very well lay the foundation for the reconstruction or revival of Roush Fenway Racing.

 

[Joker]

Everyone liked that.

Stenhouse would be a good fit at the Front Row 38 but that team is affiliated with Roush. I'd prefer to see Hemric in the 37 car.

Could still happen, Ragan went to the 34 at FRM when Roush cut him loose.

 

[gnomesayin]

My main concern with Stenhouse's career at this point is that I hope he can continue to make enough money to support his sprint car team.

Buescher is an obvious upgrade, and I'm glad to see him rewarded.

 

[hidesert cowboy]

He has more time for Danica now

She didn't pick up her options on him either. Must have got a better ride with someone in her financial league.

better ride, LMFAO, that will probably get deleted.

You mean Aaron Rogers???

 

[Clutch]

Stenhouse in the Outhouse.

Correction: Roush had an option on Buescher the entire time.

 

[Privateer]

Next week JTG announces Stenhouse Jr to the 37 for next season...

If they're going to do that, they might switch before the season closes.

[Ventisca]

Stenhouse went Big -- Jack went small

in the interviews...

 

[gnomesayin]

 

[Spotter22]

Never thought I'd hear Jack Roush throw somebody under the bus, but he did and backed it over Stenhouse. Not sure how I feel about this.

 

[Team Penske]

Let's be fair here, Ricky has had a great ride but he also destroyed a lot of cars.
Cars on the hoof can't win. Chris finishes races and brings home a car that can be improved
on. I think Rickey's style of driving is not suited for RFR.

 

[Hawaii808]

Pretty easy to see that KH is really uncomfortable talking about this.

Let's be honest here, no one on this thread is making the argument that Jack should've kept Stenhouse.

I'm surprised Harvick commented on this Jack-Stenhouse episode as it relates to KHI while in his driver suit at the track -- but I'm glad he did.

 

[racingfan7]

KH had Kertus Davis & Burney Lamar in his cars. What a biased interview.

I like Stenhouse. Yeah he wrecks equipment but he's a winner. I think he'd do well at a solid organization. Hope to see him at a better Ford team sometime in the near future.
