    Maybe Drydene threw some more money his way to run the tour.
    My suspicion as well.

The other rides I'm sure hand internal issues that aren't/weren't readily visible on the surface, but once he saw behind the curtain so to speak he had to dip. Its hard to argue with success, if Madden gets the tools he needs and is allowed to call the shots, then he is tough to beat, so berating him for leaving situations that don't work is understndable to me. If he had stayed and run badly y'all would still have run him down as being no good. He knows what he needs to win and won't settle for less and doesn't have to...
      A few things your leaving out are the capital ride that he couldn't get going in and the fact that he never seems to be able to keep crew members around for very long. Especially when he attempts to run a national tour. I've said it before some people aren't cut out for being in the road they can't handle the mental aspect of it. And my ohms opinion is madden is one of those people. All the talent and knowledge in the world but he can't handle the pressure and struggles of balancing home life and the road. Theirs nothing wrong with that. But you can probably mail this one in

        Well said and I agree. Very talented, very knowledgeable, but he loves his family, and I don’t think he’s the easiest to get along with.

        And maybe that is partly because he is grumpy not bring around his family. Or he’s just very particular and can be an ahole and people cannot put up with it.
        Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

            Millwood's he did NOT leave, it was a temporary deal for the summer series from the beginning. As to quotes of him always leaving to watch his son play ball I only ever heard him say that once and then 4m speculators kept repeating it. Its also more polite when people say the leave or quite for family reasons than to say, "Well they were a bunch of hard headed clowns with no money to race, so I dipped". I'm not saying any of these people were bad or that I know 100% what went on, but I know Chris and he demands professionalism, period and he knows what he needs. I havent seen the "trailer trash" incident so I can't comment to it.
