    Choosing the 19 over the 21 is probably the easiest decision any driver with multiple offers has ever had.
  • RCR needs to give Rodney Childers a blank check & make him competition director.
  • @marcolian
    I'm as big a Ford guy as anyone but unless you have some kind of deeper attachment to the Blue Oval there's no one in their right mind turning down JGR for the Wood Brothers.
  • In case you missed the story; Dillion walked into Petree's office Monday, said he wanted his car fixed, Petree said he couldn't....your grandpa won't let me fire you! 😂
  • @JayStephens8
    Rcr needs to get Dillon out of the car 10 years now if running 30th every week
  • @john7156
    Still remember the All Star Race when Kyle Busch said to Stenhouse Jr. that “I suck just as bad as you” right in front of Andy Petree. It’s likely Kyle’s comments and their recent poor performance at New Hampshire played into Andy’s decision to step down.
  • Berry and Childers could make the Wood's Brothers Fords be great again
  • Briscoe wanted to take the reverse career path of his hero Stewart haha. Going from SHR to JGR.
  • Berry + Childers to Wood Brothers would make great sense. And hopefully the can finally get their 100th win.
  • @vabeach311
    Berry, Childers and the entire 4 crew should move to the Wood Brothers. They need to clean house after years of preforming worse than their equipment.
  • @gatling216
    I think the most telling part of Chase's quote is that Truex had a hard deadline to make a decision this year. Makes me think that maybe, possibly, he had some help making that decision. As far as Petree and RCR goes, that was a much needed change. I wouldn't be surprised if the 3 car opens up in a year or two and Austin moves up to a leadership role. He's not as awful as a driver as people think, but something tells me he'll be a lot better on top of a pit box.

    Eric, your ability to convey the richness of these storylines in such a watchable, entertaining and professional way is truly second to none. You’ve deepened mine, and I’m sure many others’ appreciation for the sport. Thanks for your talent and constant hard work!

    With the way Andy P treated Sheldon Creed last year…. Couldn’t be happier to see this happen to that guy.
  • I hope Ford is smart enough to keep Noah and Josh with Front Row and Wood brothers. Cindric bought himself some time with that win but not a ton of time.
  • I think everyone is forgetting that there is another charter potentially available. If the 15 finishes bottom three this year, NASCAR could revoke that charter, thus giving another opportunity for RCR, RFK, Trackhouse, or 23XI to expand
  • Personally I think Berry and Childers would be a better fit at RCR if they want to find speed in the cars. Noah will probably get the seat because of Bass Pro but yes it’s time for Silver spoon to hang up the helmet. Honestly if Busch wants out as much as he’s making it seem I think you buy him out too. Maybe that’s how they end up with Noah and Berry/ Childers.
  • Richard Childress didn't have a great career as a driver, but he excelled as a team owner. Maybe that's the key. Kick Dillon upstairs, put Gragson in the 8, and build the 3 team around Kyle Busch. I want to see Busch/RCR work out.
  • @fivespeed42
    You gotta admit, RCR has had some terrible luck. They always seem to get caught up in someone elses mess... but i guess that's what happens when youre constantly running toward the back
  • @mauricepen1
    Eric I appreciate your knowledge and passing it on to us Keep of the good work
