    sounds like a Moyer move. Drop off the tour when you know you're not winning it. Congrats to Shirley. Well deserved.

    It's only a 3 HR drive from Shady hill to Thunderbird and roughly 2 hrs from there to I96.

    He tapped out.

    The only year the Summernationals meant anything was the year it paid 100,000 to win. Watching Moyer and Bloomquist in their prime battling for 30 nights in a row was amazing.

    I was but I was also thinking if Richards also pulled it off to. I'm not a really a fan of him but I don't have anything against the guy. He's a wheeler.

    Don’t take it personal, this stage of his career 2nd in that series means nothing to him. Small team his car has to be getting pretty tired and he has to do a lot of that work himself plus there’s a lot of money on the table the next several weeks.

    I’m sure if you two fund him with brand new car, motor, all new parts he would stay on the tour to finish.

    Can’t blame him it’s hard stay on top every little thing before it brakes. Then ever thing starts add up and take a toll on him and his team. 25-30 races back to back makes it hard to fix parts/problems and find other problems in less 12hrs, if they have that at times. Most regional don’t have 30 races a season 😂.

    Hmmmm..... Well, he has made it this far. With five races to go and only 56 points out of the lead. Thats a shot at 25 grand. Oh well, I guess he knows best on what to do at this point in the tour. I wish Babb the best of luck going forward.
