bad brian certainly competition conversation days front good interest last nascar otherwise question rest result share stake trying
We've probably had more conversation in the last 10 days than we've had in the last 10 years, and I don't know if that's good or bad for the rest of the competition and for what Brian and/or NASCAR would otherwise be trying to accomplish. But we certainly share an interest and a stake in the result of the question that's in front of us,

If owning a NASCAR team is so great, then ask Rusty Wallace and some of these other guys why they're not jumping in the water. Because you have to be borderline insane to want to do this, given the financial risks involved.

cup front hope justify name nascar operated order owners problems program series teams truck work

But I don't think that's where it will go. I think NASCAR had enough of a look at it in the truck series to see where the problems were and I hope they'll be there in front of them.

He doesn't need to focus on not losing, he doesn't need to focus on hanging on, he just needs to go out and do what's natural, which is what got him where he is.
