I feel a little bit guilty if any of this is indeed true...lol It seems like everytime I buy a USAC National driver's shirt at the Oval Nat's at the year's end the following season the driver is no longer in the same ride. ie; Brady Bacon, DD, Cole Whitt, BC, Kevin Swindell, Chris Windom and the list goes on ! ! I might have to stop buying my beloved Sprint Car and Midget shirts

The term "rent-a-ride" isn't just a Chili Bowl thing ! !....

You or your Dad may know or remember Paul Neighbors the old starter from IMS. He had/has a fabulous t-shirt collection that went back to the 1970s. And, they all were in great shape as he would only wear (each of them) them once a year. Made everybody jealous.

With all the wins and the championship that levi jones has with tony stewart; couldn`t he put his own midget program together?

I wouldn't surprise me if that were true, Lloyd. But, it just goes to show you, you can buy a ride, but nobody's got enough money to pay Jon Stanbrough, Bryan Clauson, Dave Darland, etc. to ease up and let you go by them. You still can't buy a win. Not in these parts, anyway.

That is one of the things I love about nonwing racing. Wing fans may disagree with me, but my observation has been that the car makes more difference with winged racing, thus it is easier to "purchase" better finishes. Jerry is exactly right. You better come prepared to do battle in these parts.

Lloyd I heard that a couple years ago bout the Red Bull car

Grant drove the p**s out of that car and night after night was a tough out for many a driver, in many higher dollar ride. And he was consistently one of the fastest qualifiers. Jerry

well im pretty sure he had a "pretty good year" that outshines Grant.. wins, quality wins, great shows.. im sure he junked a quarter of the equipment that grant junked.. that doesnt take away from Grant.. It was great to watch him progress into the driver he is today.. seemed like you could see him get better with every race.. Windom, gets better every race, wins, fairly easy on equipment.. we shall see.. hopefully someone comes and puts the truth out.. im ready for racing season already..

Clauson out of the 2b????? IF this is true then from what I understand he needs a Sprint AND a midget ride, I've heard he is OUT of the 39 and JR Todd is the new hotshoe.
