Guy is filthy rich but never really lived up to the hype
I agree I remember thinking to myself, never hear about this guy till his dad died. Then like all the attention was on him. I used to pay a little attention to nascar from about 2004-2010 ish and can't remember him winning a lot at all.

There was another brother too I think, only ran in a handful of races. Never really made a name for himself.

this is one thing living in my part of the country is so bad, the media here is acting like this is the story of the decade, to the average person on the street across the country, if he hang it up no big deal, but again this is what sports has become on the yrs, but nascar and the rednecks who follow this sports, well i just dont want to be in the same room today

They don't do enough racing of the NEW CARS... they used to do races with the newest model cars.. I miss that shit..

There should be a panel to choose what carmakers (sport) model should be chosen, then make them all race that for 2 or 3 races...
Charger
Mustang
Toyota ZL1
CHEVY FT1 (of course the vet is an easy answer, but that's lame)

Jesus, wouldn't you like to see a dam TESLA race??

Anyway, as a kid, I think those races were the most exciting to me
