Terrible move by HAR!! Dumping two good racers in the same year and not even givin DC a full shot at alot of the tracks on the schedule. How bout get a crew chief?? Then a chassis thats worth a lick?? Still a poor call IMO. If Larson cant get the job done then the Hoffman boys only have themselves to look at. Luckily Jerry fell back on his feet after he was dumped, im sure we will see the MDC runnin soon!!

Daron told me at Terre Haute he offered the Hoffman's a brand new Maxim to run but they didn't want it. He said he wasn't comfortable in the Chalk chassis and didn't know what to do with it. The car lurched almost into the wall at THAT on the front stretch in TT's and did the same at Kville. I wouldn't want that ride right now either. I really don't think Larson will do any better and he tore up his sprint ride at Osky last year. I would've chosen Dickie Gaines for Oskaloosa considering he won it before in his own car. I don't know why everyone forgot about that great driver. Is it because he's over 30 yrs. old? I sure hope Clayton can get back in a Maxim or DRC soon. He more than deserves a good ride or sponsor to get his own car back out.

Burdette has had a good season for a lower budget team! Should have been in the Feature @ gas city for sprint week but just had some bad luck! Has won @ gas city and LPS. I think he would do well in a top end car like the 69.

Just goes to show how dedicated the hoffmans are to winning. Daron has run tons better in the Maxxim and if the hoffmans wanted to have the best combination to set themselves up for victory they should have atleast gave it a shot, not turned up their nose!

And some thought that Daron and Shelley were crazy for still wanting to win the antacid deal after he agreed to drive for HAR.....
