at least 3 chassis brands and 2 drivers in less than a year......chassis just dont stop working and drivers dont forget how to race overnight........

how about Joe Liguori, good young talent looking for a break. He has shown a lot of improvement so far this year

Well, I would imagine that this will be the test for HAR. If Kyle goes backwards and doesn't run upfront with his hair on fire, given how Kyle has run of late, you all will have your answer.....IMO

Oh wow, Lets bash a team that pays all the bills and GIVES someone a ride. to which they give 40 percent of the take (Not sure) to the driver.

Nobody but the driver and owners know whats going on.

Personally, I feel bad for both parties and wish them best of luck.

Gotta get a suit and a Bob Kinser seat but I'll drive it LOL

There are also a ton of drivers, most local I'd love to see get a shot.

But the name I'll throw out and don't know if he'd be interested.

Buckwalter.

I can only guess you're refering to the Wilkes, Chuck? That one didn't make alot of sense either!
Hell, I'm still pissed at them for firing Kevin Doty....

Nothing against Daron at all, but with the history Chuck noted above, you know Rob and Richard are wanting results now.
I'm guessing too many crashes in such a short time together. Who saw that coming....

What's wrong guys? Slow week and nothing better to complain about? Is Hoffman's the only car to have more than two drivers in it this year. Why didn't you say crap about those rides? I doubt Jerry and Daron were promised anything they didn't get. It's not like they switched to the same style driver. I don't care if they have a different driver every night. I don't care if they pick a name out of a hat. I am just thankful with the dreadful season and the economy they have not kept the car in the shop and said heck with it. I guess all the track prep was good this week and no one stole anyone's seat so we have to jump on this topic to complain.

I Indirectly mentioned Wilke/Pak in my reply and the same with Jerry Coons Jr.
I am a fan of both as well and I removed that

I Should follow my own advice and not comment on what I do not know what happened.

I apologize to the Coon's and Wilke/Pak.

Hope this is enough.
Chuck

This is a tough business... Car Owners want to give the best equipment they can and have a chance to win. Hired Drivers want to do their best to keep their ride and be successful. Sometimes both try too hard and it makes for a difficult situation. I wish them both well. DC, it won't be long until you are slinging dirt again...
