  1. Not exactly, the 21 would have depended on where the 00 finished. Also if Andy feels he was incorrect and wants to apologize, good on him. You haven't heard that out of RC
  2. A part of history gone. Best wishes to the family as this was indeed a hard decision
  3. Family owned with a family member running a family number. Makes sense to me.
  4. it's only 5 races. so he's only back as an owner. part time driver doesn't count as back.
  5. Just about every car is under a set of rules or a sanctioning body. Nascar is no different. If the teams don't like it they don't have compete.
  6. ok you can believe what you want. I just don't understand why we care about the cost. we don't pay for it. Justin Marks will tell you different on the cost. also the can put them together with " clenched fist" all they want but if the teams were making the parts they would cost double to triple the price. Also this is NASCAR show. it is NASCAR cup series not team "what ever" series. Nascar mandates the rules no different than IMCA, USRA, NHRA, IRL, F1 or any of the other Sanctioning body that exist. So yes its their rules. its the same in Xfinity and Truck. Those 2 can't just do what they want. they have to do what's in the rules. If the teams don't want to put together these "kit cars" they don't have to. the can go be part of a different series. Most teams were upset when they pushed the roll out of the new car back a year because they had set their budgets for the next year and had to redo them because it cost more to run the old car. I heard that from live interviews from several executives from different teams ( RCR,JGR, Hendrick). Every part that they used to produce for the old car had to be approved. So give me a break that NASCAR just now is calling the shots. Apparently there are things that the teams can do. Most of the steering issues at Bristol were on toyotas. most of the tire issues were on fords. yes there were some others but they weren't the majority.
  7. they didn't force anything. I heard numerous interviews from owners that have said they asked for this car. same with numerous interviews from nascar. listen to Justin marks. he will tell you all you need to know about the decision being made and how this car is the only reason that he and micheal jordan have teams.

    Chicago holds festivals and concerts almost every weekend of the summer. especially on the big holidays. most of the murders in Chicago don't happen down town
  9. I know Chris personally. he and his family are great people and Chris is an inspirations for sure. there is nothing on that car that he wants someone else to do. it is a full family affair that now includes Chris' fiancée that also races his other modified.
  10. the car was built by his uncle years ago and raced by his uncle. he wanted to race because of his uncle and was excited to be able to race his uncle's car. in hindsight the should have added more bracing but its too late for that now. luckily he made it out ok.
  11. agreed rain happens quick in florida and didnt start falling until the wreck.
  12. it took decades to get the old car to were it was. It funny how people except the new car to be perfect out of the gate. they will work out the issues with the cars in time as the always do. also the teams have a lot more influence on these new cars that people want to believe. there are several parts that the teams and change or rebuild (like the steering racks). also the teams had and have a say so in where the parts come from. its not nascar making all the decisions.
  13. the only reason that the track is doing anything is because of the government funding that was given to smi for the track. SMI themselves even said it. congrats on the track doing something but the government funding from covid has more to do with it than dale jr.
