BAM should become the official minority. diversity team for NASCAR. Then they could get money fom numerous organizations that want to be politically correct in NASCAR. Being competitive is something BAM never was or will be. I think it would be a good fit.

This is just a guess, but maybe Microsoft was embarassed to have announced the sponsorship deal with BAM, only to see the car off the track the next two weeks (with an off week to follow). Not exactly the big splash they were looking for when they agreed to sponsor ateam.

I feel badly for Schrader. Yeah, his best days as a driver are long gone, and he never fulfilled his early promise, but he’s a good guy and doesn’t serve stuff like this.

Fisha… That’s why I said let him find a ride that would be able to show up every week… Not necessarily a good team, but one that can at least make an attempt every week! I don’t think he’s that good of a cup driver anymore, either, but he can still make races when they give him a ride.

Schrader is never going to find a good team to go too, because he is no longer that good of a Cup driver.

I just think its weird that Microsoft would pull back sponsorship because they don’t have enough money.

I really wish they would just give up and pack it in for good! Even when they had a sponsor on the hood, BAM is a second-rate team (at best) and just another field filler. Let Schrader go try to find a ride that might be able to bring to the track week in and week out!
