They should not be allowed to do stand alone races like those at Iowa or the 2nd race at Chicago

They should all have to use the same size seat as Austin Dillon.

One word. Money.

Drivers get an extra paycheck for racing, and the Cup talent puts more asses in the seats in the stands because of the "name" drivers racing in those other events.

I'm just as confused about him being in the #6 car today as I was when he was first hired.

Rumors are Drew Blickensderfer (#6 crew chief) will be going to the #31 of Jeff Burton.

As for Ragan.. I thought he was much better this season than then last few.. I thought they should've dropped him and kept McMurray, when that whole deal went down.

And Lambert supposedly to Sadler's NW team. I'd have kept him with Burton and sent Blickensderfer to Sadler instead.

I definitely agree with you on that one. Jamie Mac is definitely underrated as a driver, IMO. I've never seen any single driver pull out of ridiculous slides more than he has.

I wonder how much Kurt Busch being a douche-nozzle influenced his decision.

Uh huh... interesting. Amazing how much a guy with a cell phone and a YouTube account can accomplish in this day and age.

Go on Roger.

Give the drive to Hornish.

You know it makes sense.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

The 2012 Truck Series Schedule is out.



It looks like Rockingham is the only new stop for the series.

Down to 22 races.

Andy done with TRG in general,
Lally joins Magnus Racing for 2012

November 22, 2011

Andy Lally's time with The Racer's Group is at an end, as the longtime driver for that squad shifts to Magnus Racing for the 2012 sports car series season.

Lally will run with Magnus team owner John Potter in the team's No. 44 Porsche GT3 Cup, replacing Craig Stanton for the full season.

Magnus, a team whose unique sense of humor is displayed in its news releases, has competed in both the Grand-Am Rolex Series and American Le Mans Series the last two seasons. It's been a full-season Rolex participant while running sporadic ALMS events.

For Lally, the opportunity is a fresh one after his sojourn into NASCAR with TRG had a rather forgettable ending. The team fell outside the top 35 in owners' points during the waning stages of the Sprint Cup Series season and Mike Bliss was drafted in to the team's No. 71 entry for the season finale at Homestead-Miami Speedway.

While Bliss qualified after Lally had failed to qualify for the previous race at Phoenix, Lally made sure to state during the process that he was not fired, just that there had been a difference of opinion regarding the team's future direction. TRG team officials described the situation as “fluid.”

Lally made his NASCAR debut in 2009 and won Rookie of the Year honors for 2011, largely because he was the only full-season entrant. In 30 starts this season, Lally had a best finish of 19th at Talladega, with a career best of 18th at Watkins Glen in 2010.

“It is official, for 2012 I will be racing in the Rolex Series for Magnus Racing with John Potter in the No. 44 Porsche,” Lally said in a tweet.

“I will still be attempting to do any NASCAR races that I can, especially the road courses"

I'm reminded of Scott Pruett's foray into NASCAR after reading that.

hmm...which one is a better deal...

If I were an insomnia patient, the second one is a steal.

At least Lally was a somewhat respectable rookie candidate (*cough* Kevin Conway *cough*). That drift he had at Charlotte in qualifying was mint!

So was this.

That truck schedule blows.
