Another open wheel guy screwing a Nationwide/Busch regular out of a potential ride and sponsor. Actually screwing the late Bobby Hamilton’s truck team out of a sponsor. Come on Chipster, you could’ve found another sponsor. Your driver won the Indy 500 for crying out loud!
what’s wrong? Can’t circle trackers compete with the best? If BH’s truck team provided VALUE, the sponsors would not leave, but, that’s called business.
