Hit the nail on the head there...Joe Loyet puts guys in his/Brads 3-4 extra cars that he thinks can win the deal...he wants a driller that bad...He is for sure the exception, not the rule. You would be amazed if you knew how many big time successful open wheel racers were renting rides for the Chilibowl.
I also agree that there really is no difference in renting a ride versus spending your own money or sponsor money to own your own ride. And if for some reason ride renting quit happening at the Chilibowl there wouldn't be enough cars entered to have more than one full qualifying night.
