People can "WINK" all day long, but James Ride, except for the fact that it's a Mopar Body, and he is his Son-in-law, has nothing to do with DSR. We can all do the "6 degree's of Separation" and link people with certain teams, Give me time, and I'll link John Force to Don Schumacher himself! But at the end of the day, James Day's Funny Car has nothing to do with DSR, and Tasca's FORD, (Except for the fact that it's a FORD BODY) has nothing to do with JFR.

Come on Timmy, do you really believe that? Tell me that you don't believe anything more than bodies have been passed along to those teams? No Data? No engine parts?

Cory Mac owns Beckman's ride?? News to me.........
I thought that last year Cory Mac leased an operation from Shoe, but this year he is giving sponsor money to Shoe, and DSR runs everything. Cory even commented in an article about having a signed driver's deal for a few years.

Imagine this.
Schumacher gets tired of it all and decides to go full time fishing in Lake Michigan... and then C. Kalitta and Ken Black decides to do the same.
Evan Knoll is out for this year and maybe he decides not to come back next year or ever?
Who would be left?
There's not enough cars, and there's not enough money to support the few that are out there.
Sh*#! there was only 17 T/F cars & 23 F/C at Pomona... and a couple of each of those, supposedly will be parked after this very first race of the year.
IT Don't Look Good for professional drag racing.

I'm trying to decide if that would be a bad thing. Let say everyone who believes you need 3 mil a season to survive parks their car. If I were Densham or Head I'd be doing backflips! Whats the sense of spending 1mil a year to TRY to make it into a field? What if that could get you in?So what if the bump goes from 4.80to 5.0? And the hospitality tents are gone? And the cars are towed back to the pits with mini vans rather than chromed out Hummers? People would tune out of survival. The interview at the end of the run would be shorter ("I'd like to thank my brother in law for a tune that kept the rods in all weekend") Someone with more fingers + toes than me maybe can say how many certified cars are out there parked from not lack of funds--but lack of ENOUGH funds to bump into 16 big spenders.

Just because I happen to like Tony Schumacher's team doesn't mean I disagree with you - AT ALL!

Re: How Many Teams Can You Have
Its more than likely a "nascar" deal for example: When Nascar limited the number of teams any one owner could have they just put different owners on different cars: Roush for example: Martin's car was owned by Roush, Kenseth's car was owned by Martin, the others were owned by Geoff Smith the gm and Roush's wife, etc etc etc.

I'm not saying your wrong, but myself, along with others, haven't seen anything to support what you are saying. You can't post anything for us to see, an article, or anything?? I don't understand how DSR owns Beckman's car last year, but now Cory owns it?

Re: How Many Teams Can You Have
That just sounds strange, but who knows. I guess maybe it allows DSR to expand in each category without counting against his owned teams.
If Justin knows who you are and what you do, I have no reason to doubt you. Not trying to offend you.
