He runs the whole shebang now, and is stepping down from race-engineer/strategy duties.  Not sure how involved he is outside of that.  Regardless, he’s a shrewd businessman and race strategist, with a ton of different teams in different series.  I’m sure he’s got it to the point where they’re more or less running…

DJR and Triple Eight were working together in the offseason to correct some of the parity issues between the Mustang and the Holden - I’m looking forward to this season.

I’m a huge fan of Scotty, but I’m a little apprehensive about his IndyCar debut. He’s said before that once he feels like he’s achieved everything he wants to in Supercars he’s going to leave the sport to do other things, which would be rather disappointing for me - it’s a joy watching him race these things.

That’s unfortunate.  The US Spec Focus RS is just a plug in the amp in the trunk.  

If it’s me I’m ripping them out and putting buckets in along with a K swap anyways.  NP

Because Supercars often gets ignored here unless they’re crashing spectacularly:

Series staple and 3-time champ Craig Lowndes retired from full-time driving in 2018.

I’m a photographer, and every year for the past 3 years I’ve been lucky enough to spend my birthday weekend with some of my closest grassroots friends chasing rally cars through the forests of Maine. Only got to shoot one event this year, but I made it count with some of my favorite rally photos I’ve made yet.

“It’s in my mouth!”

Holiday Baking followed by Home for the Holidays had me in tears!  Great episode - so good to have Eddie back for an hour.
