i didnt believe it when i was told but i heard that hunter may have lost his ride for 2009 can anyone give me some more info? i thought hunter did a fantastic job this year, cant see why he would be out of that car next year

If that is true, he'll certainly find something to drive. Hunter was one of the main reasons we went to so many races this year, he is just incredible to watch. Even my wife took a new liking to racing because of Hunter.

Well, IMO, it is a Jeff Walker deal, and while he's had some of the best in his cars, he's probably fired/lost more top shoes than most....He may be taking the Bill Biddle place for hiring drivers

Hunter Sweet and Ballou are the most exciting drivers we have right now. Only one with a ride for next year so far...I may be wrong.

The last time I talked to Hunter, he was still unsure of his plans for next year. But he is a great driver who works hard and treats people right, so I have no doubt that he'll find something, whether it be with Jeff or someone else...

JEFF WALKER WOULD BE AN IDIOT to let hunter go, the guy is a wheel man, and one of the funnest shoes around to watch

Its all about the money what ive heard is they want someone who will rent the ride, but Hunter is one hell of a shoe and very fun to watch.

Can you really blame a owner wanting someone with money? I mean seriously think about it. If you were a car owner, would you want someone with money so you know you will profit or someone with talent and no money. Just look at it as if it was your own car and I think just about anyone in the world like to profit in any scenario...

Just read a full two page article on Hunter and Walker in the Speed Sport News.
Its a really nice article. These two guys really did a great job in 2008.
Whatever happens with the team, we are proud of both of them and wish them both continued success.
