Yates last event
Good luck to Yates and the entire team for a strong pull this weekend and hopefully a secure sponsorship to allow the team to compete for rest of the year and then some,always was a Yates fan,Talked with him in Bristol and a super nice guy!

Re: Yates last event
Might not be the only P/S team to park their ride.

Re: Yates last event
this is becoming to much of a trend.....good veteran drivers having to park their stuff because they are having financial troubles.....i know it's just the nature of the beast but that doesnt mean i have to like it, and i am pretty sure i am not alone

Mike - That's what I am hearing, and it could be more than one team.
As I've stated elsewhere, the entire sponsorship picture for NHRA is dismal.

Re: Yates last event
There are alot of quality teams out there that are not givin the fair chance with the funding,kinda sux. Still Yates has done an awesome job this season with being pretty much on his own $

Re: Yates last event
I sure hope that Jim gets a new ride...He is way too good and too nice of a fella to not be racing at every event.

Re: Yates last event
He is in 13th place in the points, but amazingly only 22 points out of the last chase spot... If you want some intersting statistal view time, look at the powerade points for those top 8 spots...

You'd have to ask Ken Black to know for sure what it takes to run up front? I suspect he'll be reluctant to divulge his investment. |
