    Sr. is rolling in his grave. What a damn shame.

    Off topic but did anyone see that NASCAR special last night? J Sauter's reaction in the driver seat during the Atlanta race after his fresh air supply motor dies is basically the type of knuckleheads this sport has in it these days. You have to wonder, Booty Barker had to sit in his wheel chair and listen to him **** the whole race about a little fresh air. I think he would give up 3 hours of fresh air for a pair of working legs.

    I remember not too long ago Harry Gant driving at Bristol for 500 miles with no air conditioning, power steering or head restraints to off set the g-forces from the high banks.

    This sport is full of spoiled prima donnas. Maybe 20% of the field could actually work on their own cars. It saddens me when names from the 80’s & 90’s are slowly disappearing and backfilled with these types of hacks.

    Anyway, back to the program. If JR. doesn't win at least 3-5 races next year, I will start to question his ability as a driver. There will be no more excuses.

    What a ****! I somewhat understand her not wanting to turn over 51% ownership of DEI to Jr. She and Sr built it from the ground up back in 82 and she has been running it since then. However there is absolutely no reason for her not to let the number 8 go with Jr other than to be a ****.

    Jr is saying he wants his new number to be 81 which wouldnt be bad. That way everybody with 8 tatoos only have to add a 1 to match.
