Yep. They sold out to New Way Motorsports in Lethbridge about a month ago or better. Heard rumblings in early June. The new owners have talked to me already but still haven't been called by the old ones. Lmao!

Yes, even sliced bread (Logano) really hasn't lived up to his expectations.

Hamlin also injured his wrist in the Bristol crash, badly sprained wrist and thumb injury. Newman was not privy to SHR expansion plans before let go. He laughed it off saying, Why would they tell me when they didn't even tell Tony?

some deception among owner/partners at shr. fireworks a comin'.

what slot did my fryin' pan fall into on the grid there buddy? just checked. 32 yuckie. hopefully they were just focusing on race runs.

 

[any1butjj]

where do you all think Newman will end up? Furniture Row Racing?

kind of wish Bobby Labonte got out of the car earlier as everyone will likely only remember him as a field filler not the champion he was. I remember watching Darryl Waltrip go to long too, it was sad to see - that being said Earnhardt senior didn't need to retire the way he did but at least he was at the top of his game when he went.
