It is time for Carl to s**t or get off the pot.
As a long time Ford Racing fan and since Carl came on board also a Carl fan, it is time for Carl to announce to his owner just where he is going to race next season.
Jack Roush has invested years putting the proper pieces together with Carl’s team to make him a legitimate contender and if that is not good enough for Carl then he should announce that he is leaving.
If he announces he is leaving then pull him out now and let Ricky Stenhouse finish out the season. He may need another year of seasoning but he may be able to provide some decent finishes for Jack.
Clint Bowyer would make a great replacement for Carl and we all know he is available.

If he is jumping to Gibbs for a few mil more in compensation than good for him because after all it is all about the money.
If he is jumping to Gibbs because he thinks he can win multiple championships driving for Home Depot then I think he is mistaken.

So Carl please make the announcement soon and don’t let the door hit you in the ass.

And go Matt Kenseth

If Eddie Haskell does move to JGR, I just might start to like him.

Oh so your a ricer fan?

I thought Bowyer re-signed with Childress? Or is it just close to a deal?

I'd hate to see Edwards go to JGR and join the "legion of duh". But all the recent posturing sure makes it look like Toyota Joe bought another driver for his shop of horrors.

Oh well...

I think Bowyer is waiting for the Edward fiasco to end because maybe he is hoping to go to the 99.

I actually like Bowyer because I was on track with him at Watkins Glen a few years back in a test session and he didn't embarrass me as much as he could have.

Those Cup guys show up unannounced at club events in non NASCAR cars to do a little informal testing.
When these guys show up they have to obey club rules but when you get on the track with them you get to see how good these guys really are.

Those were the good ol'e days
