Kraig doesn't like Donny because Donny blamed the NST(National Sprint Tour) breaking up on Steve!

Kraig did mention at Lowe's last night that he's never talked to Schatz that much before.

I wasn't really thrilled when I first heard that Tony hired Schatz. To me he's giving off an impression that if you can't beat them then buy them. But if it saves Donny and family some money by racing for someone else then I can understand that but then again he hasn't had much competition over the last two years and was able to regain his old crew chief that he had lost to the Kahne bunch.

Haud is in the R19 next year so I'll be pulling for him as well as Jason Meyers who is a real class act!

Ditto! I assume the Wright 35 is closing up shop like so many others?

Heard that Rick Wright is going to concentrate on his son Rick Jr.'s racing out in Cali. now. At least he gave Haud a ride for two years and Jac made that car go like no other before.

Well until they fix the format and make them race again it is still not worth a penny to watch them anymore.It is nice to see speed have dirt racing on tv again but them heat races really sucked choo choo as usual over after the first turn and the feature whow they both started up front as is the case with the outlaws these days.Just look at any night of the non-wing nationals from Perris speedway now that is the way you put on a show for a tv audience.

I couldn't agree more, the WOO format is almost as painful as sitting through a cup race!!!
BUT--30,000 spectators at Lowes vs 3,000 at Perris Somebody likes that sh@t!
