Unfortunately, there are a lot like that there out there just wanting attention and the clicks.

he sure loves the attention. That’s all he’s in it for.

So apparently Jake Timm and GR have teamed up to complete the WoO northern swing.

Guessing Timm brings the powerplants.

Timm is running his family’s equipment: under the 22* number. This way GR can accumulate owners points with the WOO.

That makes sense. I figured the actual Team 22 would stay parked for a while. I'm interested in seeing if Drake might end up in something at Lernerville this weekend.

Never thought I would say this.........I kind of feel sorry for GR.

How can anyone be surprised at this happening. I mean no one stays in that 22 car longer than about 1/2 a season.

Same here. Pretty wild deal after hearing both sides of the story. GR seems pretty devistated to lose Drake. Had major long term plans with him.

I kind of feel the same way after seeing his comments about Drake leaving his team. It takes a ton of money 💰 to run a national tour. Say what you want about GR, but car owners are hard to find. He was willing to follow the series and was apparently blindsided by Drake"s decision.

Zack Mitchell is a pretty good replacement!
