I see where Ross Bailes is going to drive Troy Baird's car at Golden Isles for the Lucas events. Wonder how long that pairing will last? Didn't he tell Brandon Overton he was selling out now he is running again?

Don't read too much into it. He might change his mind the day they're about to leave. Best of luck to Ross.
I haven't seen anybody last very long with Baird.
Kinda' makes you wonder...
I hope Ross does good.
I like guys like Baird that throw money at racers, it doesn't seem to matter to him if you are good though. He seems to want great. His name stayed on Davenport's car. He won a good bit, maybe that's what he's looking for. Who knows...Quote:

Don't sell Ross short. He has the talent just needed the opportunity. Hopefully Baird will give him a chance to get comfortable in the car & show it.

Shame is he is giving good, young drivers a chance, then because he gets a burr up his a$$, takes it away. You wanna not pi$$ money away, I completely understand, but changing your mind like a women and screwing these young guys over is BS.Quote:

Nice to see Ross getting a chance to show how good he really is and I just hope he gets a fair shake because it's refreshing getting to see someone who deserves it, get that chance.
