MBM builds their own engines, and they have been extremely unreliable. Hopefully he gets to go the distance.

I can't understand why marlar would take a ride in a car that has little chance to race competitively or even make the show. Other than wanting to say I Tryed it for 1 race.

Here's how the 66 Xfinity car has fared in 2019 thus far:

Yet no one stop to think maybe he wanted to try and give it a shot and see. If a driver does well and better then expected in a crap car sometimes it tends to be noticed by others who happen to be watching. Who knows it may lead to other opportunities down the road with another team. I could care less how the team had done. I thought it was cool someone obviously thought that well of him as a driver and as a person to give him a chance and see what comes of it. If manages to finish the race rather on the lead lap or not; that would say a whole lot.

Unless he blows it up on the pace lap I'm betting Mikey outpaces their average finish by at least 1/2........
Where is the move over flag when you need it?????
-
hey GL to Mikey I'd say there have been times he won LM races and didn't have the best car or etc....
Racers just race
-
Hes over 40 no chance of getting in a busch car competitively they want young people
-
It must make financial sense for him. His comment after the truck race paid off
-
Maybe he will bring an engine along for the deal.
He's not going out to blow up.

I doubt he was given this ride. This kind of deal is a rental. There is a large up front rental fee and then you have to write a giant check that they will only cash if you wreck the car. If you don't break anything, they tear up the check.

Everybody has a bucket list. I hope he has a blast.

Shovel on a little more coal, then when we cross white oak mountain, watch 97 roll!
The problem is the gall dang motors.
-
He mentioned at the truck race that he’s really like to try an Xfinity race. Looks like the people that funded his truck effort decided to fund that Xfinity effort.

Reume was so pumped up he might have helped him find a sponsor after the run they had.
Edit: that isn’t meant to be taken literally guys.

If anyone has posted about this I haven't seen it. Apologies if anyone has.
Mike ran an asphalt late model in Lebanon, Missouri this past weekend. There were 8 cars and he started and finished second.
-
Sounds just like every other asphalt short track race
-
Who cares why. Has an opportunity Probly funded by someone else. Had fun at Eldora. Want to try another race on asphalt. Not gonna make career of it. Fun new experience that has 0 bearing on anything past present or future of his DLM career. Go for it and enjoy every minute
-
Qualified 31st. He was far from the slowest on lap time.
Race is at 6:30 on NBCSN.
