What is within our grasp of reality is knowing that Penske and his "people" will need to walk a fine line to fend off any perception of impropriety of decision making within the sanction. Those of us who are of a certain age remember well how Mr. Penske would wield leverage and power to get what he wanted and what was in his personal best interests.
When a high profile, highly successful team owner is also the proprietor of the sanction there may be, justified or not, many a jaundiced eye cast in his direction.
That was my first thought too, Kenny, but I’m sure Mr. Penske understands that aspect of the microscope under which he’ll be operating. My second thought was wondering how much influence Doug Boles will have in convincing Penske of the benefits of retaining the BC39. How inclusive will he be toward the dirt short track segment of motorsports? Only time will tell.
