I listened to an audio interview on TheDirtChannel.com concerning DD the other day, and he announced his plans for this coming summer. He will drive for Steve Phillips in the USAC Sprint Division, Don Fike in selected USAC Midget races (including the Chili Bowl) and he's hoping to get back with Galen Fox in the #56 for the Silver Crown races next summer. He gave no clue as to why he and Jeff Walker went their separate ways. Maybe $$$, but who knows for sure. DD shouldn't have to fight for a ride every off season.

Wow, good luck to a great man, I enjoy running against when I get the chance!
I thought Stanbrough was going to drive for Phillips? Any word on what he is doing for sure?
Thanks

I understand that Stanbrough may be driving for Paul Hazen next summer, and that Hazen may have a two car team

Its a sad day when 2 of the all time greats in the sport are struggling to get rides when people who have money that havent proven themselves are doing great. JMO

Dave and Jon will both be winning next year no matter what they drive.

Who are these drivers, who have money and are doing great, yet haven't proven themselves? I'm sure plenty would be interested to hear.

Someone spends the money for each car to be on the track. They get to make the decisions. If one wants to be the guy who makes the decisions, one can own a car. I don't think any need to defend their decisions to people on a message board...

Just wondering where you heard this? I think Paul has his hands full funding 1 car, let alone 2. I do like the sounds of Jon and Paul hooking up again. I hope that part is true.

I agree on Jon and Paul together again, but can't see Paul funding 2 cars either.
