ESPN - Part-time ride for Leicht better than no ride at all - Nascar

I cant imagine going from winning a race last year to only having 2 races guaranteed this year... hopefully working with RCR will help him

He's a great young talent, hopefully he gets in full time somewhere

It usually boils down to sponsership, or lack of one.

Took the words out of my mouth. Times are tough if you don't bring your own sponsor.

It boils down to Robert Yates not having a Nationwide team anymore but you would think a former winner could find a full time ride before some of the other drivers who have one

And why does Yates not have a Nationwide team?

Brent Sherman proved that when he somehow managed to make it into the Cup Series for BAM racing a couple of years ago by bringing sponsorship

anybody who doesn't believe that racing is more about money and less about talent might want to ask Jacques Villeneuve what he's doing this weekend.

yep your right about that... I was thinkin Robert Yates just decided to focus on the Sprint Cup as to why he quit the Nationwide Series, didnt realize it was lack of sponsors... what a shame

 

[doozer]

i bet Yates would race 4565 cars in the Nationwide Series if he could secure sponsorship. as it stands right now, or at least last i heard, his Cup teams may be suffering the same fate.
