I think somebody needs to look into buying a jet. I know its still a rigurous schedule but he could leave for the track later and be home on Sat. night late or Sun mornings most times. He's working on building business stuff up and I understand that but with the right ride he's the type of guy that can bring home $100,000 in prize money at the least every year too. JMO and I'm not the guy that has to be out there running the schedule so its easy for me to say too.

Not sure the math adds up. Buy a jet = $$$$$$$$$$$$$$, to bring home $$$.

yeah, your probably right as far as that goes. I guess I had Schatz's setup in my head when I was saying it.

I like the idea of Meyers racing a "reduced" schedule for Tod in the BGTS car. They could concentrate on only the big races (like Sammy did a few years ago) and not be tied to running any podunk track that pays hte sanction fee.
If they did a 40 race schedule, they could hit races in CA, teh King's Royal Weekend, The Nationals, the 360 Nationals (there's 5-6 dates within a 10 day span), the National Open, etc.
40 races spread out over 9 months is only 4-5 race nights per month (July/August could be a little busier, but that would leave March, April, May, June, September, Oct, November as only having to race 1 night a week (which would give the team time to be extremely prepared for the events they do enter.

Whose to say that Tod doesn't have Jason run a limited schedule 4-6 weekends and the Nationals and still hire another driver to run 40-50 races? If I am not mistaken Tod owned all of Garrets equitment that he ran this past season at Knoxville? Meyers gives you the best chance the win the Nationals of any free agent driver. Just my 2 cents...
