    I like how Eckes is in a Chevy and still running the JGR style 19.

    Also thought that the 43's knee was a little close to the dash and I can't imagine that'll feel too good in a crash.

    ACLs are rough. I always figure on a year recovery at least when it's a professional athlete. Idk how that differs for a NASCAR driver or normal person. Hopefully yours goes faster!

    I see a lot less complaining about Busch winning in the trucks than last season. Maybe I just need to give it time. Or maybe people think the more successful Kyle is, the more of a middle finger it is to JGR.

    For those that know as I’m just assuming. The trucks have two different colored craftsman banners on their windshield.

    My assumption is black means they are not running for points or Championship. Red means they are running for points and Championship.

    Xfinity has done similar in the past. Busch's cars tended to just say Xfinity instead of having his name on them.

    Chase Elliott's surgery was to repair a fractured tibia. Looking at several weeks for recovery, but no timeline.

    HMS pointed out that other HMS drivers race in other series and Chase's injury could have happened just as easily by mountain biking or stepping off a curb wrong and they don't anticipate a policy change at HMS.

    I’m sure boss man isn’t exactly thrilled at this situation. Do everything you can to stay healthy in season. You get paid a lot of money and have sponsors to meet obligations for

    Chase is a lost soul right now

    I'm sure. Eric Estep pointed out that HMS used to have a policy regarding that, but has been more hands-off in recent years. I've seen Bowman in a few very minor events and has been featured on Vice Grip Garage a couple of times as well.

    What day was Chase’s accident? Bill broke a tibia in late February back in the ‘80s, then went on a tear when he got back in the car. This was waaay back before he broke his femur at a Talladega.

    Shouldn’t matter if you’re paid millions if you can’t enjoy life what’s the point. Is he supposed to race for 25 years and miss out on things during his prime? I’m sure he has enough money in the bank he could walk away forever and do whatever he wants when he wants to. I hate that mentality that a boss owns you.
