Maybe....someday.....Kenny Baldwin can find the talented slave that he is looking for. Professional racecar drivers don't drive racecars for free. Sprintcar racing is no place for tightwads. You get what you pay for and if you don't like it, load your ******* and go home!!!

You are correct! Chad Kemenah also lost his ride two days after winning Manzanita earlier this year, except the owner folded the entire team.

I wouldn't "bash" car owners until you become one.

I have tried for years to find a ride and can't believe the stories owners have told me about drivers, and I mean you wouldn't believe what goes on.

Myself I don't care about the money, I just want to drive and race because I love it, but car owners aren't like they used to be. Drivers either have to have proven themselves with wins in the past or have a pocket full of money to "buy" a ride. The car owner has the most to lose (and usually does). To me its more important that the car is prepared and capable of winning and set up to my driving style. If a car owner won't give you that its not worth it anyway.

As for being a winner, they don't have any problems finding rides.

I dare not go into who or why with dirvers or teams. Only to wish both the best in the future and I apreciate both for what they do. Without either. Theres something less to this sport.
