This is like the 2nd or 3rd time they have split. Beeman has always been hit or miss with who he has in the car. I guess it's time for Gilpin to dig his Bloomquist out if he wants to go late model racing.

I'd like to see them put Cody Mahoney in the car.

Mahoney has driven for Beeman once already, but who knows Gilpin drove for him a few times too.

Maybe Casebolt will get some "WOOD" on his hood again!

I'm happy to see Tanner get another opportunity....but what is the deal between Gilpin and Beeman? Is Beeman shady? In Gilpin's FB post saying "no longer affiliated with Jim Beeman Motorsports or Mastersbilt....no longer responsible for any actions made by Jim Beeman Motorsports" That gives me cause for concern for Tanner's sake...Anyone have any insight?

Why does Beeman have to be assumed the shady party?For me, its the wording in Gilpin's post that makes it appear that their is something fishy going on.

Tanner should continue prepping his family ride for 2019 because he will need it.

I had forgotten about that. Jim has had some decent drivers over the years, but none of them ever lasted long.

You can't go through as many drivers as they have over the years, and point at the drivers for unknown reasons. Casebolts stint lasted a month , and he was back in his own stuff, strangely a mastersbilt.

Best of luck to Tanner though.

I put the Beeman guy and Troy Baird in the same boat, only difference is Baird had better drivers and couldnt keep em

Why keep the same driver when there are so many to go around?

For me, its the wording in Gilpin's post that makes it appear that their is something fishy going on.

It used to be common for wording like that in newpapers "public announcements" section in the classified ads. Mostly for couples that had seperated but a few business ventures would use that when they dissolved a partnership.

Legally I dont think it means a whole lot... but if it makes one feel better ok.
