So ive heard a ton of rumors about drivers moving seats for next year but very little out there on the web.  Anybody else hearing rumors.   Gravel to the 2 car, macedo to the 41, Ruetzel to a startup team with Bell????  Dont know these as facts, jsut from the rumor mill....

Reutzel leaving the team he is on now, would seem a little odd.

Bell starting a team makes sense and Reutzel would be a good pick. 
 

What's the reason why Macedo and Gravel would switch teams?

Hearing KLR shutting down. Gravel to Quiring #2 in place of Madden and Macedo fills void in 41.   Lot of stretches here but some makes sense

If Kyle doesn't land a solid Nascar ride for 2021, I cannot see him operating a WoO team.  I would think he would need an active income or retirement income like Tony's or Kasey's to support that.  So that one would not be a stretch.

Thinking that the 2 team might still be in place I  pretty much don t have actual facts but i believe that the truck and trailer  are KLR's but the majority of the funding comes from Tarltons //Complete parts and equipment //Durst and a few other of Carson s  backers ///might Carson just go with his own progam ???

Ah, the Quiring 2, that makes more sense. Especially if he wants to continue the nascar dream. Macedo bringing his funding the the 41 team also makes sense.

It's speculation, relax. The original poster said he heard rumors, didn't say it was fact.

Absolutely not speculation!   Someone said it on the internet, that makes it an absolute fact!

Well arent you just a lil keyboard jockey dipsh*t.   there is a reason it says rumors, not saying its 100%, but most came from a reliable source within racing that seems to have a pretty good pulse on the sport.  wait and watch, and when some comes true ill wait for your reaction.  thanks for the nickname ya douche canoe.

Ok Mr know it all, whats your problem ?! You don't have to be an ass about, if you don't like a thread, move the fuck on ! You give your 2 cents on what you think you know. When in fact, you don't know fuck all like the rest of us unless you back it up with something other than your opinion. I'll bet my wife's sweet ass that of the drivers mentioned, some moves will be made somewhere. Idon't know shit, but that's what I'm hoping for just to make you look like a know it all fucktard, more than you've already done on your own !!

Well....the 41 car isn;t as funded and such as everyone may believe. They are doing a lot with a little in the grand scheme of things. I've actually heard Gravel back to the 83 Roth car as they never wanted to lose him to begin with

Didn't they fire him after a few races in 2015?

That might be.  But I remember Tony Stewart having an open seat in the #20 car years back.  And I remember Tim Kaeding commenting in an article in one of the dirt magazines that he would have to bring 7-digits in sponsorship money to the car to get the seat.  (Maybe someone can elaborate or clarify this memory I have---because I don't have it in front of me---purely going off of memory, and I'm losing that)   Maybe Tarltons is footing a upper-6 to lower 7-figure bill?  I don't have any insider info.  I just know the loss of Chevy on the wing had to hurt a tad?  Along with any other smaller sponsors that jumped ship.  I can only speak for what my feeling would be in his situation.  If I didn't have the 7-8 figure salary coming in, I would not be forking out fun money to keep the #2 car on the road.  But that's my thought.  Maybe he has it all worked out and doesn't mind putting some of his money towards it.  

 

Pure speculation on my part

I actually thought the starter of the thread asked a couple of valid questions.  Nothing wrong with his questions at all.  JMO

Word around the pits is Swank is working overtime trying to get Gravel in the #18 for 2021.

Not sure how much pull Swank has with KCP to pull that off. Especially with his lackluster performance as crew chief. My opinion is, Swank has had his day in the sun. It's been a minute since he's been apart of a what we would call, a winning team. If you can't blame a shit program on the driver, who's next in line to point the finger at ?
