Choosing the money that gives finishing 23rd any other week in NASCAR instead of racing in the most diverse series in the world, along with the greatest motherfucking race in the whole damn world?

Montoya can fuck himself.

Most diverse series in the world? I didn't know he was offered an ARCA ride.

But seriously, Kurt contends for wins with FRR, so Montoya can atleast contend for top-10s on a regular basis, if not better. I'd take that over being in a series that's got a tenth of the viewership and always on the verge of implosion.

Montoya has also got a family to think of and I can't see him making that much money in indycar.

Nascar has always been the big temptation for champcar/indycar drivers.
First aj, then danica now jpm.

As much as it sucks you have the choice between winning races and championships in relative obscurity
Or a huge payday in nascar no matter where you finish.
And much huger rewards if you are competitive.

Until indycar makes its series a proper destination and had more money about it to keep its stars, this will always happen.

I am dissapoint. But not surprised

Whereas in Indycar you get no payday no matter where you finish.

Tony Kanaan, Indy 500 winner, salary; sweet fuck-all.

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.

Maybe Andretti can use the sponsorship money he found trying to raise money for Montoya for Carlos Munoz? Colombian so the sponsors might be interested to continue with that.

FUCK YES! FUCK YES! FUCK YES!

This is like the biggest fuck you, he can give to Ganass. Great team and I'm sure he will be up to speed soon. This is freakin awesome. As a Montoya fan I rather see him up front than driving midfield somewhere else.

That's great news! I wonder whether Penske will allow him to enter some NASCAR races?
