Ford Mustang planned for Monster Energy Series in 2019 | NASCAR.com

Of course with NASCAR's rules it'll look nothing like an actual mustang. Just like the "Camaro" that the Chevy teams are running now.

3 in a row!

I'll tell you though, I like the looks of those Chevys. They're sharp.

NEWS: Matt Kenseth to rejoin Roush Fenway Racing, return to NASCAR Cup Series competition in 2018, sources confirm to SB Nation

 

[doozer]

Seems like a bad idea.

 

[95 Vol Alum]

Why?

 

[YankeeVol]

According to NASCAR writer Jordan Bianchi, the 2003 Cup Series champion will take over the No. 6 car for Trevor Bayne on May 12 at Kansas. Kenseth and Bayne will split duties in the Roush Fenway car for the remainder of the season and the plans will be announced on Wednesday per the report.

Fascinating!

Seems like a bad idea.

Roush needs some kind of spark. Aside from a couple of plate wins, the Roush teams have been garbage since Kenseth and Edwards left.

So in other news, Trevor Bayne is on his way out? Bizarre move at this point. Bayne has been struggling, but to be fair, RFR equipment isn’t what it was. Kenseth is an upgrade, but he isn’t going to fare that much better, IMO. Maybe he can be a spark for that team.


Edit: I forget that Trevor was diagnosed with MS in 2013.

I think his disease is starting to catch up with him and I hate that for him. We will find out if the equipment at Roush is just that bad or if it's been the driver IMO when Kenseth is behind the wheel.

I miss the IROC races.

I miss the IROC races.

I loved IROC back in the mid 70s when they ran the Camaros that were close to what you could buy at a Chevrolet dealership.

Looks good Yank!

Late 90’s is all I remember. (92 baby) I remember watching Jeff on a small tube tv.

And there it is.

Glad that's over and they can get back to actual racing next week

 

[YankeeVol]

Wasn’t a bad race. We sat high enough up we could see the whole track. I’d go back

We go almost every spring but didn't make it this year. Looks like you did it right by camping. Talladega is always a good time.
