So that's why his son is no longer in the top funded ride in the game?? And is competing head to head against the greatest of all time. If it was all about his son at all cost, the "house" car would be running Lucas full-time.
you guys better believe there is two house car programs,with all the info richards has at all the tracks and brandon as a hired gun(which he has earned), smart business by mr richards,now what will be said if they can win both series,but I've have said for the past two years, b shep and bobby pierce were and are the ones to watch and they are both coming into their own, i think this will be one of the best years in racing in a while, really don't see any one person just flat dominating this year, but i maybe proved wrong, i hope not though
The Best team is lacking nothing. It's as well funded as any. There are two house cars now on opposing series. Very smart business move.
And it was about Josh doing his thing, being out from under his Dads thumb. The only thing Josh has known is working with his Dad and being under him his whole life. Ya know, how you guys b!tch about the younger generations, well, he is trying to go out on his own. Plus his wife is from that area.
Everything isn't always racing related either, I'm guessing it was as much about them two wanting to do their thing in life as it was about the racing for Dad stuff.
The press release when Josh told the world he was going to BP Racing said Mark was hired as an adviser -consultant etc.... Part of the article below.... Brock is paying Josh very, very well for his services, and he did want to quiet the crowds that said he couldn't win, or run as well without his Dad. From what he showed during speedweeks so far I say he has stepped up his game even more!! Congrats to the team for what they have done so far!!!!

Ain't that Mark Richards somethin'?!
I thought it was funny when Mark shoved the random guy checking out the RR of the Best car when Josh was in the hot pit. Mark was guarding it like a hawk, lol.
Billetbirdcage, I seen that also! LMAO!! Ol' Tubby was dumbfounded!! Looked like someone just took his ball!

Anybody know who the dude that got punked is?
That guy should have popped him in the chops. Little man with Napoleon Syndrome getting all bowed up looking like he's carrying watermelons......
Both appear to b checking tire wear. Common occurrence on pit stop. Zero comes in and turns into a large crowd of gawkers quickly
Rambo maybe?
lost a lot of respect for richards after seeing that, i dont care what the excuse, you do not put your hands on someone at a public event , i can promise you what would have happened if that had been me. and dont lucas have a rule about covering or hiding your suspension now?
