I'm 44 and I can't remember a time when there wasn't a Gentry family racing team. Other than Hofmanns, I can't think of any that have been around longer.

poop box? i have seen and drove his car. far from a POOP Box i would say.
How in the world did this post about Jimmy leaving the Trucker turn in a bashing on the Gentry's? They are a great group of Good ol' boys doing what they love to do, DRIVER SPRINT CARS. The entired Gentry family is invalved in racing and has been for about 200 years.lol

They sacrifice more than most will ever comprehend just to get to the track. For that, they have my respect and always will. Anyone owner, driver, or crew member that sticks it out in this sport for that period of time has earned respect. All the broke dic%s out there with their $hit box's deserve our gratitude for what they do everyweek. I'm done with my rant, i'm sorry in advance.
Actually since some of you have got your panties in a bunch, I wasn't referring to Leon Gentry, or the Gentrys in any way shape or form.Don't know these people at all other than seeing them race for which I am glad for along with "most" others.So maybe next time before people "assume", know what that spells? that I am taking a shot at someone they should get their facts somewhat straight.Nuff said.
