Exactly why some of us beg to differ at any suggestion that he won't accept an offer to return to NASCAR.
I love dirt track racing as much as anybody on this forum but not so much that I'd turn down a reported eight million in earnings. A person could do a lot more Sprint Car racing on $8 million as opposed to $250k. Actually when I look at drivers earnings lists I made as much as some of the lower tiered travelers while I was working and used to marvel at how hard they had to work for it compared to my air conditioned office job. Granted I wasn't popular enough to sell merch at the bus stop but I matched some of the driver eanings so most of them aren't getting rich driving Sprint Cars with the majority being part time racers once we get a few rungs down the ladder.

Agreed, but he wouldn't get an $8m contract going back. His brand in the corporate world is damaged considerably.

Hard to say... he seems really happy winning all the time & his kid climbing up on the wing
Yes, money talks, but some people choose happiness over $$$, believe it or not...
Driving 500 miles is not fun, as we all probably know. Driving 500 miles with no AC or tunes & 32 other NASCAR maniacs fighting for position seems kinda hellish to me...
