        Yea, but every once in a while a guy like Kyle Larson comes along and his talent and determination does the talking. Money's nice but occasionally talent and guts trumps the money. Wish it happened that way more often.

          so sorry they don't want the bs or being tied down plus it might be they don't care for that type of racing plus many drivers would rather call the shots and not be a hired hand

                I don't know about that but, Denny was like 11 or 12 and was at a autograph session of Joe Gibbs the coach of the Washington Redskins and while getting the autograph Denny told coach Gibbs."Mr.Gibbs I just started racing go karts and one day I want to race for you and win you a Championship".

                  Don't know about Denny, but I've heard that Truex got hooked up with jr through online racing.

                      I have heard the story about Denny and Gibbs. I cannot remember it. LOL
                      I think it was about being in the right place at the right time. I know it also had to
                      do with a lot of sacrificing from his parents to get him in position to take advantage of
                      his break. Of course the Parents sacrificing is quite often the theme for these youngsters
                      getting a chance
