Tony Stewart to Leave JGR at Season's End
#14
HAIL PIKEVILLE! Wrote:Yeah but you only get 5 of those and rome wasnt built in a day. Even with a great driver like Tony its gonna be a struggle to start a new team and be part owner. The numbers speak for themselves. Bill Ellliot wasted alot of peak years in his career being an owner/driver and admits to this day how big of a mistake it was for him personaly. Im sure Tony is going to want alot of imput on how the team is run and that will take a serious toll on his performance on the track. Dont be surprised to see him be on the go or go home list this time next year. Will he right the ship? Yes but not immediately.
How I do agree with you about the part of it being a struggle, you also have to remember he is basically being backed by Rick Hendrick. CNC Haas is a satellite team for Hendrick Motorsports. Haas receives engines and chasis packages from Hendrick. The only thing this team has lacked is a talented driver to get the setup right and drive the car to victory lane. If anyone in NASCAR could own a car, and succeed in their first year, it's definitely Tony.
