With his grandfathers dislike for the rules makers and issues in the past on safety issues I'm shocked they continue to spend any money racing NHRA

At least you can make money racing NASCAR.
But, just like pro $tock, you have to have it fir$t

That sucks that Pro Stock is losing a player..

However, Tanner is good at turning left in front of people, so he should do well in NASCAR. ;-)

"Dunning-Kruger Effect"
-a type of Cognitive bias where people with little expertise or ability assume they have superior expertise or ability. This overestimation occurs as a result of the fact that they do not have enough knowledge to know they don't have enough knowledge.

Before you argue with someone ask yourself, "Is this person mentally mature enough to grasp the concept of a different perspective?" If not there is no point to argue.

Let's ask the Coughlin family how much money Cody is making in NASCAR. I think he is rapidly turning a large fortune into a much smaller fortune.

Kid just lost his ride due to "lack of sponsorship funding"

Yea I am sure that's why he is moving. His billionaire grandfather told him he needed to make a profit. You can make money in Nascar if you have sponsor,just like in drag racing.

I could care less about Tanner Gray. Kid rubs me the wrong.

What makes me nervous is what happens to guys like Drew Skillman that get motors from Gray Racing if they are done.

It will be funny first time Tanner thinks he can play games with the likes of Kyle Busch.

Yeah, good thing WJ, Glidden, and Shepard never lost their engine deal, who knows what the history books would look like...

Of course, back then real men ran pro stock, not the limp wristed pantywaist's of today.

Yeah but instead of a friendly ( kick his azz Erica) chat at the finish line he will get an adjustment in NASCAR.. Obviously not enough ego exposure so on he goes...

Raceless in California!

Actually I think it is a good thing. NHRA needs to consider profitability of the racers and losing some big names should get their attention. Yet we all know they do not care.
I have long felt the NHRA is doing everything they can to run off Racers, Sponsors and Spectators.

Everyone acts like he is going straight to cup racing. He is only going to race a local NE series, long ways from Daytona

You gotta give him credit though. He hasn't been here for a few months and is somehow managing to pull the strings and stay in ya'lls head.
