Would have been a better race if he had crashed on lap 1 and someone else had won.
It just goes to show what talent he has. This kid will be one of A$$CAR’s greatest drivers. Rustler and those like him that call them selves fan don’t have a clue what it takes to be a true fan. Get a grip!
I wonder if JGR will field a busch car for him as many times as HMS has in the past.
If JGR is as smart as he has demonstrated in the past then the answer is Oh yea, most definitly. I’m not sure why Tony doesn’t drive his Bush car but look at what it does for Denny Hamlin
I personally can’t stand the little punk, But I recognize good driving when I see it and he drove his butt off last night.
Chevy, watch out next year.. JGR has the 3 best drivers lined up for next year…
..now let’s see how the Toyotas do..
Kyle and his team work very hard and deserve the win. Like him or not this kid has tons of talant and will be a champion very soon, (maybe even this year, he does have a good chance to pull it off yet). It is all about talant. Personality has nothing to do with it, it is all about performance. After all look at Tony
Sh!thead. He has the personality of a rattlesnake really, but is “loved” for his performance on the track (even if he is the dirtest driver on the circut.)
