Car is wiped out, bad enough wreck they had to red flag practice to fix the inside safer barrier. he's ok, did an interview, no back up car it seems, something was said about Means trying to work a deal with Jr to get a car.....
Bobby is a great young talented racer, I was glad to see he wasn't hurt during his first attempt to race on a super speedway. Kudos to JR for stepping up with a back up car for his freind and Bobby to run. Hope they can put it in the Nationwide race and do well.
bobby was fitted into the new car as is real pleased.the only drawback is no more practice.the first time out is qualifying.i have no doubt he can get the car qualified. i am real thankful for junior to give him a chance. as god only knows he deserves it. thanks junior!! now bobby get er done.
This is an awesome story. Former Nascar Sprint Cup Series driver and close friend to the Earnhardt Family Jimmy Means is fielding a car for USAC standout Bobby Santos in the Nascar Nationwide Series race at Daytona on Saturday, April 19th. Bobby wrecked the car in Nationwide pracice earilier today and Dale Earnhardt Jr. decide to help Jimmy Means & Bobby Santos and let them use 1 of the backup cars he had in one of the haulers. Now this is what I consider a class act move. Awesome to see other teams still and do care about fellow competitors.
