NASCAR News Roundup
1. Evernham is suing Robby Gordon. Kind of have to say, based upon how the partnership agreement was handled by GEM back at the beginning of the year, I'm siding with Robby. It was pitched to the press as a partnership, not as a buyout, so something tells me GEM isn't playing with a full deck.
2. Joey Logano is attempting to make this weekend's race. I'm hoping qualifying gets rained out.
3. Darian Grubb has been named crew chief of the #14 car next year (that's Tony Stewart). Mellow man with Chevy background. Does he have kids? That'll be the deciding factor on whether he's right for Tony. (What? Zippy started it!)
4. Stremme is back! In the #12 car next year. Which means Penske doesn't lose their quotient of drivers who are "fat and out of shape".
5. David Ragan may get UPS next year. More importantly, does that mean we finally get UPS commercials that don't feature DJ? And can he ship goats? He must ship goats!
6. The running of the Richmond race is in doubt thanks to Tropical Storm Hanna. Quite frankly, I'm more worried about all the rednecks in motorhomes and tents. Wind is not their friend! So RIR and NASCAR - get on board with postponing so those people can be safe!
7. NASCAR out of the blue announced they'll have a new drug policy next year. Hmmm. Think they *finally* got a clue about the whole Aaron Fike thing?
