Re: Vandergriff-Harvick announcement?
I bet that NHRA would like to see them get a car out before final round of qualifying in TF in Atlanta-only 15 cars ran first round.

Re: Vandergriff-Harvick announcement?
Possibly a couple of lower budget teams waiting for the night session to make their first run?

Re: Vandergriff-Harvick announcement?
Did anybody catch Kevin's comments yesterday during the rain delay? He was in the booth and somebody brought up drag racing and his plans. He basically said he's just watching things now and has no real plans for the next 2 years or so because he's got enough things going on now with racing and his teams.

Can you blame him, with all the issues going on with NHRA right now + the economy in general? I feel bad for Vandergriff.

Re: Vandergriff-Harvick announcement?
Looks like mongosrace over at YouTube uploaded the segment I was talking about a couple days ago. Fast forward to 7:08 in the vid to hear Kevin's comments.
YouTube - Kevin Harick on Racing

Re: Vandergriff-Harvick announcement?
sadly I can't blame him or anyone right now.
With all the issues going on it would be pretty foolish to jump into such an exspensive enterprise

Does anybody really think this deal was going anywhere? There have been so many announcements through the years about new fresh blood entering the sport that I don't get excited till the talking stops and the cars start.
Kudo's to Vandergriff for actually trying to do something and I hope something works out.

Re: Vandergriff-Harvick announcement?
K. Harvick stated aprox. month ago that the bad economy and a full plate were the back burner reasons. Good folks All of 'em!!! Hope they DO put a deal together!
