I hear some double talk here, “Joe tried to keep Kyle” “the relationship had run its course”. Basically grandpa needed somewhere to put Ty and set him up.
There is a HELL of a lot about the Gibbs - Busch divorce we will never hear. It’s out there that Gibbs was willing to pay Kyle “ out of his own pocket “ and Joe’s net worth is around $60 millions. There has to be major info we aren’t getting.
@@bryonkidder6199 Jarrett, Stewart, and Logano became successful champions. Two of them are in the hall of fame. Labonte is in it as well but wasn't the same sadly after leaving JGR after 2005. Suarez is doing well at track house. He could be a champion in a few years.
@@bryonkidder6199 Stewart left on his own due to not wanting to drive a Toyota. Jarrett also left on his own. Suarez was replaced by Truex which was a great deal. Logano was replaced by Kenseth which at that time was a great deal. Labonte was 41 years old and finished 24th during his last season there. Jones being replaced by Bell was also a great trade considering Bell went to the finals last year. Really the only driver where Gibbs made a mistake was Kenseth - he was still performing well when Gibbs replaced him with Jones, I read somewhere it was due to salary since Kenseth was a proven veteran who demanded a much higher paycheck.
Tony Stewart missed an opportunity to pick up a great driver. Richard and Austin made a very wise decision. As for JGR , it is what it is. Ty Gibbs can’t hold the team together without his grandfather
If JGR wanted Kyle he would be there point blank. Joe deserves every bit of criticism he’s made with the decisions he’s made over the years. RCR is back baby let’s go!
I love people like you that will hear something that directly contradicts them and just ignore it. Denny says literally the exact opposite in this video.
I understand where he’s coming from talking about Austin and how he’s gonna get the spotlight for having a teammate out perform him but Austin was the one that got this whole deal started, and I’d imagine he reached out to both Richard and Kyle knowing Kyle is one of the best and he’s got some work to do to beat him. In my mind Austin put the company before himself when he reached out
Kyle Busch was not going to accept any offer from JGR as long as Ty Gibbs was on the team. Busch has been around long enough to know that when the team owner's grandson is in the mix, then no one else matters. Further, Ty Gibbs' actions in the penultimate Xfinity race in 2022 was all the evidence anyone ever needed to know what kind of teammate he would be in the future. Ty Gibbs knew that he could do whatever he wanted to do, including eliminating a teammate from being in the Final Four just to get a win that he didn't need. If Busch wants to win the Daytona 500 and/or another Cup championship, he does NOT want to have Ty Gibbs as a teammate. The fact that Busch signed with RCR is a little ironic, especially given their history. Richard Childress brought his own grandsons into the mix and ultimately soured his relationship with Kevin Harvick because of it. Austin Dillon at least had the foresight to know that having Kyle Busch on their team would be better than racing against him at Stewart-Haas (which was really the only viable alternative to RCR). So far, Busch has done fairly well, and I hope he dominates the rest of the season. It is far too early to predict, but I would not be surprised if JGR never wins another race before Joe Gibbs sells the team (and Ty Gibbs will be out of a job there or anywhere else).
Wasn’t it in the clash that KB let AD go by because has had a faster car? And seems like AD pulled over and let his team mate pass to make it. Little diffeeent mentality then the TY and Bubba show
Weird energy in these comments. Proud of Kyle Busch, proud of Denny, and excited for Gibbs, who earned his spot. All parties seem happy. Why fans feel the need make it weird is big tabloid energy.
I don't think Gibbs could get a sponsor willing to pay what KB wanted. Everyone is acting like he couldn't get sponsors or he could have gotten them but it's a little more complicathen that. They couldn't put a package together that everyone agreed on so he was gone and then got a chance with RCR. I'm happy for him but not mad at anybody
And in regards to what Denny is saying that JGR couldn't afford KB, don't forget JGR has big financial ties to 23XI. It's not only MJ's and Denny's money involved. JGR made their decision and they will have to live with it.
I think that KB set his price so high as a way to get out of a long-term relationship with JGR. It allowed all concerned to blame it on money and avoid a lot of explanations about team dynamics going forward.
I think Chevrolet is the biggest winner by this changeup. With Kyle's race teams and the driver pipeline etc . Chevy gained while also having Toyota lose out on something that was a great benefit to them. Win win for Chevy.
RCR's problem have been drivers, and equipment... Harvick and Newman were both competitive. Jeff Burton, Dillion brothers, ect were/have been inconsistent throughout their whole careers.... Richard landed Tyler Reddick and bam. More consistent success. It's a no brainer Kyle is doing phenomenal... The equipment has always been there
Here’s the thing Denny, no one cares wether Joe truly wanted to sign KB, because everyone hates JGR outside of the JGR fans, so of course they where all gonna stick it to JGR as soon as possible
I am changing my opinion of Toyota after all the crap Ty has done and got away with it. The. Bubba should have been parked and fined behind belief but guessing Toyota bailed him out.
As the kfb fan I’m happy looking back at the jgr years. But damn was it good to see Kyle get a win with rcr immediately. Just feels like he’s reinvigorated.
Trucks : nope :; Xfinity : nope :; Cup : nope ., best thing I can see on Wiki is the 2006 rookie of the year in Cup … ??? 1997 at age 15 WKA manufacturer cup. Dear Denny.
How can you not find a sponsor in 2022 that has the $$ to invest into KB? Not sure what he wanted, maybe 10-12 mil (maybe more?) but his track record speaks for itself and his car is usually always up front on the tv screen! There is no telling what he might achieve if he races till he’s 45! At least he’ll be in great equipment for the future as long as he gets along with RC. Wouldn’t be surprised if he wins 20-25 more races and a couple more championships before he retires!
Sorry Denny. Considering that Gibbs gave up on Jones, Logano, Kenseth and Suarez who have all proven they were capable and talented drivers, I don't believe anything Joe Gibbs says. Gibbs will give up anyone as soon as it benefits him.
All part of negotiations, especially early on. I think the main reason fans are having a hay-day at JGRs expense is that they didn't want Kyle to leave JGR and wanted that marriage to continue. But now there's some animosity because, throughout the process, JGR did not do what it took to make it happen. Plain and simple. It was a business decision, but it very clearly turned sour.
I think that people forgot what a great season Tyler Reddick had last season with the #8 team, Kyle b. Is my driver but I kind of feel that T.R had a big hand at building that 8 team as well
I don't know. They both said they were talking about Kyle joining 23XI. That it came down to RCR or 23XI as Kyle's final choices. They are pretty good friends, so I wouldn't be surprised if Kyle gave him some info. This sounds to me like he's doing Joe Gibbs b!tching, when in all honest JGR got a total F for how they treated KFB last year. KFB made JGR what it's been over the last 15 years. Not the other way around. And he's proving it this year, already.
Denny's words: "Kyle has baggage" .... "difficult to work with when things dont go well" Denny, there was this guy once, tall skinny guy with a moustache, drove for Richard, complete prick on the race track, cussed out his crew chief on a dozen occasions that I can remember. Denny are you really sure you know what youre talking about? I hope Kyle hears this interview. He'll pound the panzy driving the 11 into to the ground.
heeeeey Denny, how do you come to the conclusion that the last 4 RCR wins have been AD's teammates? RCR's last 5 wins are Busch, Reddick, Dillon, Reddick, Reddick.
its going to be very difficult for fans to believe coy wasnt putting ty first in JGR priorities.had jd still been alive, it couldve been a whole different story.its NO secret, coy was no jd. not even in the same ballpark, even though they were brothers.the on track results speak for themselves.
I pull more for the manufacturer than I do the driver, I pretty much like all of the driver's. For me it's nice to see Kyle back in a Chevrolet and with one of the best Chevrolet teams in RCR. Mr. Childress is a smart man, Kyle is only 37 from what I've been told and he has matured alot since his Hendrick days. I think Kyle has plenty of fuel left in the tank to win a couple more titles. Good luck to all of the driver's this year. Go Team Chevy!
i thought the reason kyle was not winning was because NASCAR did away with practice. i believe JGR did something to prevent kyle from winning so they could offer him less money or dump him.
If have a team that can setup the cars really good at the shop you don't need practice but practice not bad thing to learn what adjustments to make with what can change
I'm on Kyle Busch side of this. Why work for somebody you have lost interest in. New team gives Kyle Busch new life. Happy Kyle is going to be a beast this year.
That was TRD not changing anything with its engines well nascar changed the rev limiter and gear ratio and Kyle hit the limit too many times. Toyota after that changed the valve train. Kyle need to shift to a different gear and wouldn't have that problem
Dude wanted and doing are to different things JGR could have gotten a sponsorship for Busch if they wanted. Hamlin is doing PR relations for Toyota and Gibs.
Kyle might not have got offered as much to drive for RCR but he got a lot more in other ways . But he got to keep KBM open from help of RCR and Chevy . That is another source of income too.
Danny said that Joe Gibbs Racing would go out of business if they had paid Kyle Busch what he asked how does he know does Joe give show him his financial statement and for what they offered him how would you know that I'm sure that was confidential between Joe Gibbs and Kyle Busch just a thought
Lol I like how he emphasizes they really wanted to sign him while at the very same time talking about how they have every reason to get rid of him lol doesn’t pass the smell test
Denny and Kyle are atleast complimentary of eachother outside of the JGR drama. They atleast have some amount of respect for eachother which is saying something about how they developed as driver's and friend's outside of the race track.
Kyle clearly stated that retaining him involved Joe Gibbs paying part of his salary out of his own pocket and he didn't feel right accepting that. Why does Denny have to muddy that up?
Kyle was willing to take a pay cut, he said that on the television. So there's someone not telling the truth. I believe it had more to do with Ty getting that ride, than it was about money. JGR deserved the drag.
Hamlin stating that Busch is hard to work with is rich coming from Hamlin. When Kyle was leading the Daytonna 500 years ago and JG's comes on the radio and tells him to let Denny Hamlin win, when Kyle had not won a Daytonna 500 tells the story.
It wasn’t just JGR though. Toyota said they tried everything… Except maybe if Gibbs people didn’t put in the effort to get a sponsor… I mean there’s that other Toyota team they could have increased the funding for. And that Mike guy has some pull in the corporate world.
The relationship got stale. It wasn't hard to see. No drive on either side. The saying "change is as good as a vacation" is true. Everything is fresh and Kyle is enjoying it.
That's the feeling I got. The challenge was gone at Gibbs, it was time to move on. And that as long as Kyle wants to be in the car, Richard will put the sponsorship deals together for him. As long as Richard is around, he is 77 now.
Kyle ,the greatest NASCAR Driver of all time, had plenty of options . He choose exactly where he wanted to be . RCR , Richard and Kyle are of the same mindset and now on the same team .
Dale Jr on his podcast tonight said he tried to get both Denny and Kyle to drive at DEI. Imagine that line up. Dale Jr, KFB, and Denny Hamlin. It would probably still on the track today.
Sounds to me like Denny is trying to be protective of Coach Joe and I can believe the problem in keeping Kyle was what was rumored by some of the "experts " which is Toyota didn't want to pay their share to keep Kyle at JGR
This is a BS story. What JG said himself was we can’t find a sponsor. Interesting that RCR has no problem obtaining a ton of sponsors for KB. He wanted the 15 year old and got him. JGR and TRD was dishonest and everyone knows it.
Kyle Busch would have had 250 race wins from 1958 to 1992 which Richard Petty ran from Richard was racing against subpar drivers a lot of the time 60 times a year
@@toddschlicher everytown Richard Petty went to there would be 30 guys wanting to get into the race his first 20 years there was only a handful of guys that followed the whole NASCAR tour Kyle has raced against a different level of competition compared to Petty
I have been saying on Twitter for 3 years; watching every Nascar, F1 and Indy race for 10+ years, right now the "best" (most talented) driver in Nascar is Kyle Busch, with DH (here), Bell , Larson and Logano all next. I do not particularly like KB8, but he is the best (most "skilled") driver . . .as is Max V and Lewis Hamilton in F1 (and many in Indy).
Denny Denny Denny, you can't put the 70s, 80s, and 90s in that "easy to win" conversation. look at the talent that was there, especially in the 80s forward.
I've grown to be a Kyle fan. All you Gibbs fans who are crying In their beer ...... m&ms leaving is no different than Lowes, gm goodwrench, or any other 20 plus year sponser deciding to venture into another market. It's their right just like it's your right to spend money on weed. Beer and race tickets. So shut up and stop crying
Fed Ex has been the primary sponsor on the 11 (30 races similar to Mars & 18) since 2005. Denny has 40 plus wins and 3 Daytona 500's certainly a HOF career. However, times up at the end of this year '23 for the Fed Ex sponsorship of 19 consecutive years. Zero championships out of Denny and frankly he hasn't been consistently close to winning one. With the new era of parity will Fed Ex go in a different direction from Denny? Will they move to Joe's grandson or move to another team all together? Fed Ex CFO has a major decision to make.....0-18 and counting.
Not a Kyle fan. But he has a lot of talent. That has been proven over and over again. He has been in great organizations and good teams and great cars. I wonder if he could win without those factors in place. I hate the comparison game. The best ever debate. It always has to be in context to an era. I think Dale Sr was the best in his era. Kyle is the best in his era. Richard Petty was the best in his era. I think we should celebrate the talents of these drivers but should forget the hype. But then there would not be any comment section on these channels.
Hamlin saying that Kyle Busch won't be as pleasant to work with now as when stuff doesn't goes well. Gee... is Hamlin telling us that Kyle doesn't like to loose!? Never crossed my mind. And also being RCR, I bet that Dale Earnhardt also must have been the most pleasant guy to be around when stuff wasn't going his way... SMH Hamlin
Never been a JGR fan so seeing Kyle go essentially rogue and stick it to them with Chevy and an opposing team keeping them out of victory lane is sweet to see. As much as I disliked Kyle at JGR I dislike Ty way more from what hes already done in Xfinity and the few races in Cup last year (like the pit incident).
Dennis is starting to sound like all of the TV announcers and radio guys talking about how bad the fans are to Nascar. No one is going to believe you Dennis 😂🤣
The obvious elephant in the room: If Kyle re-signed with JGR, who's the odd man out? Truex? Clearly, Bell and Hamlin aren't going anywhere, and the grandson was ready for Cup.
Ty would have been in Xfinity series for another year. After this year Martin would have been out if didn't retire. He still might be out this year if dose not retire
I hear some double talk here, “Joe tried to keep Kyle” “the relationship had run its course”. Basically grandpa needed somewhere to put Ty and set him up.
Yep
Kyle to RCR is the best move for both parties. Ol Richard was looking for the second coming of Dale Earnhardt and he got him.
Couldn't agree more, Intimidator too... That Black 8 suites him
Exactly. I hope Kyle wipes the fields rear end all year. And I'm a newer Kyle fan
Please stop with the Earnhardt comparison
@@shawnjohnson9887 agreed. He’s much more talented than Dale.
@RichieWilliams97 he really might be and I love both
why would Kyle want to stay with a team that was running like crap anyway? he's better off away from gibbs to be honest
I’m so happy for Kyle and Richard, they both deserve to win a championship together and I hope it happens this year!
Busch Will Win The Championship
Agreed!!
Kyle Busch literally is the best thing ever to happen to JGR by far.
Tony Stewart
@@aaronb4936I second that !
Tony Stewart
Dale Jarrett
Bobby Labonte also, 2000 champion! I’m a huge Stewart fan however!
I think there’s a lot more to the Busch-Gibbs saga that both parties aren’t saying.
Absolutely agree
There is a HELL of a lot about the Gibbs - Busch divorce we will never hear. It’s out there that Gibbs was willing to pay Kyle “ out of his own pocket “ and Joe’s net worth is around $60 millions. There has to be major info we aren’t getting.

Yep, it's called Ty Gibbs...lol
@@therealnynetynyne360 kyle and ty seem fine they were talking before the race last sunday.

I dont think AD is dumb either. He knows KBs success is his success. KB can elevate RCR again
KB helps elevate the whole team. Dillon is also more mature than he was when Harvick was still there
Go Kyle , he’s going beast mode on the rest of the drivers, this season lookout boys
RCR didn't have problems getting him sponsor
A-List teams like Gibbs demand far more money from sponsorship than C-List teams like Childress. ;)
@@zt5547 childless is no longer a C list team. They have more speed than Gibbs.
Fact 💯
At the end of the day JGR didn’t want Kyle, period. Denny can say all he wants. So glad that RCR picked him up!
No? Then why did Joe offer his own money to sign him? But I'm glad too
I love people like you that will hear something that directly contradicts them and just ignore it. Denny says literally the exact opposite in this video.
@JD Hogg Okay, then I guess Kyle Busch himself was lying to the public then...

In my mind Austin put the company before himself when he reached out
Say what you want about Dillon, but he truly cares about RCR as an organization. It'll be in good hands with him at the helm in the future
I'm sure he is thinking with what Kyle brings to the table it will help his team run better as well....
And Austin knows he will be running that company very soon . So success of the organization is in favor of Austin future.

When isn't Denny crying a river?

I think Denny is being held at gun point from a JGR member during this interview
Sour grapes Denny, that's what it sounds like. I hope Kyle gets his 3rd championship this year. But then I also hope for no JGR wins this year.
Denny might want to go check out Kenny Wallace's video on Kyle and JGR. Because what Denny said at the beginning is just not true lmao

That was TRD not changing anything with its engines well nascar changed the rev limiter and gear ratio and Kyle hit the limit too many times. Toyota after that changed the valve train. Kyle need to shift to a different gear and wouldn't have that problem
@@johnhaas2523 not even remotely accurate
@@johnhaas2523 lol, wrong!
@@johnhaas2523 that's called cope
Dude wanted and doing are to different things JGR could have gotten a sponsorship for Busch if they wanted. Hamlin is doing PR relations for Toyota and Gibs.
At the end of the day, Kyle Busch is a RCR driver and win races. JGR's loss is RCR's gain. Stick it to Joe.
Kyle might not have got offered as much to drive for RCR but he got a lot more in other ways . But he got to keep KBM open from help of RCR and Chevy . That is another source of income too.
ROWDY FAN FOR LIFE ❤️🏁🎉🤩🤙💯
kyle is the best driver out there
The resident mouth piece for JGR has spoken
The one who can't win a championship.
Danny said that Joe Gibbs Racing would go out of business if they had paid Kyle Busch what he asked how does he know does Joe give show him his financial statement and for what they offered him how would you know that I'm sure that was confidential between Joe Gibbs and Kyle Busch just a thought
To see Kyle Bush running that Chevrolet is very good. Richard is content.
Lol I like how he emphasizes they really wanted to sign him while at the very same time talking about how they have every reason to get rid of him lol doesn’t pass the smell test
Denny and Kyle are atleast complimentary of eachother outside of the JGR drama. They atleast have some amount of respect for eachother which is saying something about how they developed as driver's and friend's outside of the race track.
Interesting remark from denny about ECR having more power than Hendrick engines.
Kyle clearly stated that retaining him involved Joe Gibbs paying part of his salary out of his own pocket and he didn't feel right accepting that. Why does Denny have to muddy that up?
Kyle was willing to take a pay cut, he said that on the television. So there's someone not telling the truth. I believe it had more to do with Ty getting that ride, than it was about money. JGR deserved the drag.
He was willing to take a pay cut and he did to sign with RCR. He wasn't willing to take a pay cut at jgr
Hamlin stating that Busch is hard to work with is rich coming from Hamlin. When Kyle was leading the Daytonna 500 years ago and JG's comes on the radio and tells him to let Denny Hamlin win, when Kyle had not won a Daytonna 500 tells the story.
It wasn’t just JGR though. Toyota said they tried everything… Except maybe if Gibbs people didn’t put in the effort to get a sponsor… I mean there’s that other Toyota team they could have increased the funding for. And that Mike guy has some pull in the corporate world.
The relationship got stale. It wasn't hard to see. No drive on either side. The saying "change is as good as a vacation" is true. Everything is fresh and Kyle is enjoying it.
That's the feeling I got. The challenge was gone at Gibbs, it was time to move on.
And that as long as Kyle wants to be in the car, Richard will put the sponsorship deals together for him. As long as Richard is around, he is 77 now.
It sounds crazy but I think there was some sort of foul play involved with Kyles engine issue last playoff.
Toyota said there wasn't. Maybe you need to go find what David Wilson said about the engines
@@johnhaas2523 I’ll check it out thanks
Kyle busch said it was coming from Joe gibbs himself he didn't think that was right.
Kyle ,the greatest NASCAR Driver of all time, had plenty of options . He choose exactly where he wanted to be . RCR , Richard and Kyle are of the same mindset and now on the same team .
Dale Jr on his podcast tonight said he tried to get both Denny and Kyle to drive at DEI. Imagine that line up. Dale Jr, KFB, and Denny Hamlin. It would probably still on the track today.
Sounds to me like Denny is trying to be protective of Coach Joe and I can believe the problem in keeping Kyle was what was rumored by some of the "experts " which is Toyota didn't want to pay their share to keep Kyle at JGR
This is a BS story. What JG said himself was we can’t find a sponsor. Interesting that RCR has no problem obtaining a ton of sponsors for KB.
He wanted the 15 year old and got him. JGR and TRD was dishonest and everyone knows it.
Everybody come watch Denny Hamlin and jgr cope
I think there were already lots of cracks and fissures between Kyle and JGR anyways.
This pod is becoming GOATED
Yep
Kyle Busch would have had 250 race wins from 1958 to 1992 which Richard Petty ran from Richard was racing against subpar drivers a lot of the time 60 times a year
No he wouldn’t. Good god, you guys act like no one was good back then. If it were that easy more guys than Petty would’ve won 200 races.
@@toddschlicher everytown Richard Petty went to there would be 30 guys wanting to get into the race his first 20 years there was only a handful of guys that followed the whole NASCAR tour Kyle has raced against a different level of competition compared to Petty
I have been saying on Twitter for 3 years; watching every Nascar, F1 and Indy race for 10+ years, right now the "best" (most talented) driver in Nascar is Kyle Busch, with DH (here), Bell , Larson and Logano all next. I do not particularly like KB8, but he is the best (most "skilled") driver . . .as is Max V and Lewis Hamilton in F1 (and many in Indy).
and he broke both legs to prove it
Denny Denny Denny, you can't put the 70s, 80s, and 90s in that "easy to win" conversation. look at the talent that was there, especially in the 80s forward.
I think he meant easy as in the field has a lot more parity these days. A lot more cars in contention to win weekly than in that era
Time was up. Not everyone stays at the same job forever folks.
I've grown to be a Kyle fan. All you Gibbs fans who are crying In their beer ...... m&ms leaving is no different than Lowes, gm goodwrench, or any other 20 plus year sponser deciding to venture into another market. It's their right just like it's your right to spend money on weed. Beer and race tickets. So shut up and stop crying
Sorry but busch leaving gibbs hurts that team and it's shown so far this year
Joe don't no. Kyle made the upgrade.
JGR is a thing of the past.
Kyle should be 2 for 2 this year. That ending at Daytona was lame.
Fed Ex has been the primary sponsor on the 11 (30 races similar to Mars & 18) since 2005. Denny has 40 plus wins and 3 Daytona 500's certainly a HOF career. However, times up at the end of this year '23 for the Fed Ex sponsorship of 19 consecutive years. Zero championships out of Denny and frankly he hasn't been consistently close to winning one. With the new era of parity will Fed Ex go in a different direction from Denny? Will they move to Joe's grandson or move to another team all together? Fed Ex CFO has a major decision to make.....0-18 and counting.
Not a Kyle fan. But he has a lot of talent. That has been proven over and over again. He has been in great organizations and good teams and great cars. I wonder if he could win without those factors in place. I hate the comparison game. The best ever debate. It always has to be in context to an era. I think Dale Sr was the best in his era. Kyle is the best in his era. Richard Petty was the best in his era. I think we should celebrate the talents of these drivers but should forget the hype. But then there would not be any comment section on these channels.
Hamlin saying that Kyle Busch won't be as pleasant to work with now as when stuff doesn't goes well. Gee... is Hamlin telling us that Kyle doesn't like to loose!? Never crossed my mind.
And also being RCR, I bet that Dale Earnhardt also must have been the most pleasant guy to be around when stuff wasn't going his way... SMH Hamlin
I've heard some stories dale was the same way
I'm sure there's former crew chiefs that have worked with Kyle that can back it up
If it wasn’t for your teammates pit crew, Truex actually had the fastest car, and probably would have won.
Denny, don’t be silly. He wins in ANYTHING he drives. JGR didn’t do any more than RH or RC. Watch out.
Denny makes it so damn hard to like him when he's always trying to be the NASCAR police and steer the narrative his way.
Never been a JGR fan so seeing Kyle go essentially rogue and stick it to them with Chevy and an opposing team keeping them out of victory lane is sweet to see. As much as I disliked Kyle at JGR I dislike Ty way more from what hes already done in Xfinity and the few races in Cup last year (like the pit incident).
Hes got to make it work. Added incentive
Dennis is starting to sound like all of the TV announcers and radio guys talking about how bad the fans are to Nascar.
No one is going to believe you Dennis 😂🤣
Goes to show ya Kyle is a wheel man and long as the car is set up for him, he will find a way to win.
The obvious elephant in the room: If Kyle re-signed with JGR, who's the odd man out? Truex? Clearly, Bell and Hamlin aren't going anywhere, and the grandson was ready for Cup.
Ty would have been in Xfinity series for another year. After this year Martin would have been out if didn't retire. He still might be out this year if dose not retire
DH quickly becoming my favorite racing podcaster. Or maybe its because there is no Mike to blab and interrupt. 😆
Love to show ....the audio is terrible
