Watch Brian France’s Head Explode

posted in NASCAR |

Anyone seen any grey matter flying around Daytona USA? No!

How about Charlotte? Seen any cranial explosions near the new home of the NASCAR Hall of Fame, maybe France is hanging ’round there?

No… Oh well…

You will when France reads this:

Later this season, Roush and Smith will add a sixth Cup team, for seven races, to get Todd Kluever warmed up for his role as Martin’s replacement next season. But if Martin keeps rolling through this season as strongly as he’s started it, he might have second thoughts about that retirement.

That will bring the sum total of Roush’s Mongol Hoard to five Cup cars, two full-time Truck programs and six Busch programs, three full-time, three part-time.

And lets not leave out the Driver X “failures,” Danny O’Quinn, David Reagan, Sondi Eden, Peter Shepherd, the 19-year-old Canadian and Michael Pickens, the 23-year-old New Zealander. All have climbed into Roush supported rides at some level this year.

Refresh my memory…, wasn’t one of the reasons behind limiting team size was because they had an adverse effect on the development of young drivers?

Yea, I thought is was… standing by for the muffled sound of an explosion from an Eastern direction.
