I hope he still does some dirt racing, but if he doesn't, I have a feeling in a few years all of us who got to see him run on dirt will consider it a privilege. His stature is part of it, but there is just something about watching him race. Just has the it factor. If he gets in the right equipment, he will make noise in Nascar. Talk about a PR dream!

I echo the sentiments regarding Indy Car. Someone on that side of the house needs to be out in front of some of these kids that come up. Of course it takes money, but the only way for that race to return to something resembling it's former prominence is for guys like Rico, Bryan Clauson, etc to have a consistent path to that series. Bryan is getting a couple cracks at it, but there is not a consistent link.

Best of luck to Rico!! Just might get me more interested in watching some Nascar again.
