California today. Should be a good race. I just hope Kyle Busch doesn't win every race of the weekend.
Seriously, I couldn't believe how dominating he was in both races yesterday. I was hoping the inspection teams would find something but I guess not.
I know, let's not start down this road again with Kyle.
Anyway, anyone else see how Ricky Carmichael started 3rd and finished 8th in the truck race? What are his chances of ever becoming a good driver and making it to the big leagues?
Ace,
a racer is a racer. this dude was THE man of motorcross. Now he is up and coming in stock car. I personally would like to see him do well, NASCAR always needs big names and personalities. If he stays is good equipment, I think eventually he will do well. It was a definite flash of how good he can be.
Totally agree. I am a fan of his and would love for him to make it and do well. Maybe HMS can pick him up after Martin is done next year or the year after. I don't know if he is signed with someone other than Harvick and Mark Martin has already mentored him, so maybe he can put in a good word to Rick Hendrick.
Isn't Brad Keselowski supposed to take over for Martin in a couple years in the 5 car? Best case scenario would be to put him in the 88 or the 5 in Nationwide after Brad moves up although Landon Cassil is kinda waiting in the wings there as well and he really started to impress me last year.
yea that #5 car is pretty much Keselowski's. It's a long shot and im just thinking randomly but what if this happens
Keselowski takes over for Martin in the #5 in 2010-2011
Signs Carmichael to drive #88 and/or #5 nationwide car in 2010
Then if Gordon does decide to retire in lets say 2010 or 2011 Carmichael take's over the ride assuming he's ready. So in in about 2-3 years it would be like this
5-Brad keselowski
24-Ricky Carmichael
48-Jimmie Johnson
88-Dale JR.
