Matt Kenseth into the Hall of Fame.
Well deserved. For 12 years Matt was the epitome of Class. Never showy or loud, just let his racing do the talking. Came in with Dale Jr and beat him for rookie of the year in 2000. I believe Dave Blaney also.

Every time I think of Kenseth, I think of Jeff Gordon and "The Shove" at Bristol back in '06.

Matt's face was hilarious.

23XI Racing ‘preparing’ a third entry for Kurt Busch if he is cleared to compete in NASCAR and if he wants to run some races this season.

Travis Pastrana will try to qualify for the Daytona 500 in the #67 car fielded by 23XI, then it appears that car will be available for Kurt after that.

One would think he'd want to run the 500. But.. He's got a trophy already, so..

When I think of Matt, I recall him taking out the trash at Martinsville.

Can you imagine if Matt hadn't won a championship back in '03?

he'd be right up there on the tip of our tongues when we talk about best drivers to never win a championship,along with Mark and Denny.

Remember also that Mark Martin was co-owner of that 17 car back in the day with Roush and was instrumental in getting Jack to sign him.

Mark can pick talent.. As I recall, both Kenseth and Logano were 'discovered' in some small way by Mark Martin.

Listened to Kenseths speech at the HOF. Something that stood out was how he described driving for Jack. Quite different from what you here from others... but then to be expected given the circumstances.. I always liked Matts style.
