"There are some drivers and some owners with some pretty big houses that are not racing." - Randy Pemberton.

Start & Park has been going on forever. Why are the TV guys just starting to talk about this now?  At least the current S&P'ers aren't moving chicanes...at least in the Cup series anyway. I don't think we have to worry about a J.Gordon/Hillenburg situation anytime soon. I think Nascar needs to keep with the 43 starters, as there needs to be consistency. As long as they aren't getting in anybody's way, I don't have a problem with the S&P'ers. Can't out-qualify 'em? Too bad.

Actually Randy comes from a racing family. His brothers are Robin, Ryan, and Roman. He knows his stuff. Brad actually seemed down on S&Ping while Mikey spoke out of both sides of his mouth.

The only case that'll happened is Lafferty & Hornaday gets tangled up at a Truck race. Those Lafferty motors outputs more horsepower than those KHIs...lol

The best part for me was Mikey pointing out that he is racing this weekend in PRISM's #55 and acting like they don't always park. I guess he forgot about when he parked the 55 in Bristol.

Yeah more ppl agree Randy P. is not good talking about NASCAR.

But also last night Brad Daughtry said he thinks NASCAR should only allow 2 teams per Owner. Brad said hes tired of seeing Owners of teams gets parts and peices from other teams and Teams pretending their not together.(Mikey was playing with his hands) By Two seprate owners working together under one roof.

what's Brad talking about, his #47 team does that exact thing with MWR lol.

I completely forgot to credit this video because I found it under Michael Waltrip Racing Facebook page.

I guess I give the teams credit who race, at least a few times a year, they may park alot but they also try to race sometimes, it is what it is, it would be a shame to see these teams go away beucase in reality some of these teams are forced into this and just can't afford to race

Maybe Brad needs a slap... Come on, limit it to two cars per owner? Basically the team he is invested in does a few things he doesn't like, is basically a third MWR car, housed in the same shop is a few cars that make up PRISM Motorsports, and also builds cars for Germain Racing. So, my question is, why flip flop on the subjects of team limits and start and parks? Your organization has done both...

As for Mikey, he always defends his projects. Listen, we all know the PRISM deal at Talladega was basically a motor deal and gave them the opportunity to run the full race. Now, did MWR benefit from this? Hard to say, but I would think that Mikey running Aaron's on their car was at least somewhat a sign of what the team could do, if they set themselves up to run the full race.

I like teams like Key Motorsports, Keyed Up Motorsports, K-Automotive, etc. that do try to run the full race with one car unsponsored, and might have another car that S&P's to fund the other. I see no harm nor foul in that. What bugs me, is Phil Parsons, Randy Humphrey, and Eddie D'Hondt. There operation, is a pure scam. Through Michael Waltrip into that mix too, he helps provide cars for a scam operation. No wonder why Mikey was playing with his hands, he didn't want to talk about his buddies in a bad way.

I'm gonna sound like a broken record, but Giants, you're wrong.
