I've seen Kahne getting called out for his talent, but that had nothing to do with it. He had one of the best rookie seasons ever and won 6 races in 2006 for a reason. The Evernham drama in 2007 really hurt his career. RPM was never ready to contend for a title and Hendrick stopped giving him good equipment after two years. He was very talented with a lot of bad circumstances.

This covers the on track problems but the off track issues Ray Everham, Erin Crocker, Jeremy Mayfield, Foster Gillett, Petty motor sports is what really killed Everham motor sports. There’s so much garbage under the surface it was doomed before it ever started.
Always felt the 19 was the lame duck car for Evernham. Sure, Atwood was a flop, but when Mayfield started to win and got vocal about his team, that was it for them. Sadler could have had SOME success, but it wasn't there after 2004. As for Riggs joining them? Riggs was a talent in every division and COULD have been awesome had he had 1 year more in Nationwide, but never got a break. Kahne was always hit or miss as a talent, a good year followed by 2 rough ones every time.

I didn't really know this story since I started watching NASCAR in 2008 and I remember Kasey Kahne driving car 9 at the time. Dodge has been unlucky in NASCAR and his downfall began with this disaster although he said goodbye with a championship in 2012.
I'm sure why so many people seem to think Sadler was a driver capable of winning a lot and competing for championships. He wasn't that good. Just because he's likable doesn't mean he was actually good. I'm not saying he was a bum, but he was closer to bum than great.
After a full season on the Gillette ownership in 2008, Gillette merged the team with Petty Enterprises to form Richard Petty Motorsports in 2009. After 2021, and long after Gillette left, the majority of the team was sold to GMS Racing to form Petty GMS Motorsports.
2006-2007 for Evernham was a nightmarish outcome. Between the dip in performance for Jeremy Mayfield and the ensuing drama, Kahnes slight fall off in the Chase, and the Scott Riggs team struggling heavily 2006 wasn't a good season and basically served as a preview of 2007s absolute collapse.
I realize Ray Evernham as Jeremy Mayfield said was an absentee owner but how did a team that won 6 races and even the 10 car was fairly competitive, go from the fastest car to a backmarker?! There were still talented mechanics and crew chiefs at that team, did the COT throw them off that bad?!
Ganassi managed to resurface for a while thanks to Jamie McMurray and later Larson, but after what happened in 2020 was when everything went to the toilet.

There were many elements that were combined against him and that at the end of the day Ganassi decided to sell the team to concentrate on other categories.

You just watched a 20 minute video about a race team that was determined to fail itself. Not really the driver's fault, considering the massive screw ups that tanked the entire organization. Then he moved to the ultra terrible evernham petty merge team, won a race with the less than stellar red bull team, and finally ended up at Hendrick with the same team and resources that Dale Jr, Mark Martin, and after himself William Byron consistently struggled to succeed in. You can blame Kahne if you wanna but the cool thing about sports is that we have all this data that shows that it would never really matter which driver was in the seats, they were destined for mediocrity.

Yeah, and Evernham wasn’t a great team. It was a pretty good team. Kahne outperformed Bill Elliott in the Evernham 9.

Ray should’ve been more worried about his race team instead of spending so much time in the bedroom if you catch my drift.

Right? He's courting a woman half his age, saying he is "mentoring" her, while being married too. What a jerk!!

Oh yes, Evernham Motorsports, the team Elliott Sadler's cup career came to die...
Sadler went back to the Nationwide/Xfinity Series in 2011 to a lot more success.
Erin Crocker was the reason why Evernham Motorsports sucked in their final years
..I see what you did there
Truth
It was Evernham why they sucked. He focused on cheating on his wife with her instead of focusing on his race team.

Reed Sorenson did it to himself. Richard Petty implied that Reed spent too much time with his head on the pillow instead of his nose to the grind.
