Maybe my p.o.v. is tainted as I came from an almost entirely road racing based background, and trust me unless you had significant funding you would not be racing professionally.:thumbsdown:

I vote this for understatement of the year. You have to bring money or else you're done in that type of deal, which is why we switched to open wheeled dirt stuff, and then ran into the same problem. :doh:

The word as of yesterday afternoon is Bryan will be competing in the remainder of the Nationwide Series races with the exception of Texas as JPM was already committed for that event.

It has been a roller coaster year but hopefully this will bring some stability to the team and Bryan's situation and they can go after the ROTY.

Thanks!

Thanks Tim! We hope Bryan can get some good, consistant finishes and get that ROY point lead back.

Also, I enjoy watching the "Quality Passes" statistics. BC has passed a few cars this season. He's ranked 21st and has only ran a partial season.

GO BC!!!:greenflag::checkered::applaud::applaud:

Congrats, but personally I would have liked to see Bryan in the Open Wheel car!
