I wouldn't pay any mind to that post. It's the same individual who recently said Kody Swanson didn't have any "ballz" in a separate thread, only to retract that view when Kody himself commented and Justin Grant offered his 2 cents as well. I guess he expects drivers to decline the opportunity to drive with KKM so they can build their racing careers in a more "respectable" fashion according to him. Evidently he's unaware that even with the high dollar teams, the cars don't drive themselves. Any sensible person who has watched Bayston drive can recognize the talent.

I will stand by my post. Nobody questioned how mov of a guy Spencer is , or even his talent for that matter. But I will say this... Guys like Darland , Elliott , Tray House , Joe Roush , Gary Fisher came from the school of hard knocks. Maybe you have heard of them. They earned every bit of respect that they got. They weren't just 18 years old showing up with a helmet bag.
Am I old school ? Absolutely and I won't apologize for that.

If by "old school" you mean crotchety old man who never has something positive to say and always posts from a glass half empty perspective then yes, you are 110% correct sir.

Oh wait ... Charlie owned & worked on his own stuff.
So if you drive for your family or help finance a ride that you have....you can't ever get another ride that you don't pay for? Seems a little rough. Good thing Foyt didn't have to live by those rules when he started.

Drivers get hired and fired all the time. Racings been like that forever! Unless you've got skin directly in the game, who's to say who should not be in a ride. Me I'm just happy there are owners out there pouring their soul and hard earned money into the sport!

I'm sure Brandon Mattox, JJ Hughes, AJ Hopkins, Dakota Jackson, Josh Hodges, Kyle Robbins would all do a good job for those teams if they got a shot at it! They do a good job with there own low budget stuff! Who ever they put in those cars both have one sweet rides! Good Luck to both of these really good teams the rest of the season!

I hear good things about that guy in the 97; if his daddy could afford to put him in a Kunz ride, look out...
No really; look out!
