I wish this talented youngster the best of luck and hope he makes the most of this opportunity. In the process of this transition to the new shop and crew, I think it would only be right to show respect to those how have helped along the way. The letter Dustin/Mike released thanks several people, but I think a personal call from anyone in the Lindquist/Loucks Racing Association to the mechanic who has been with the team for the past two seasons is not out of the question. I have talked to Brad, and as of Wednesday night, nobody from the team has contacted him in regards to his position. Last I knew, as much as this is a hobby for some, it is also a business and I do not know many businesses that can survive when they treat employees as such. It is part of the racing business to move on and take opportunities when they come your way, but to treat the people who helped like these guys have is not.
I wish Dustin the best and hope to see him race this summer, doing well for Forbrook.

maaybe there is still negoations going on with Guy to keep Brad with the team?? Maybe you should stay out of it and not start crap. Posts like this make you sound stupid and puts stress on the driver/owners and families for what could be a simple over sight. I was on a team for 12 years and did not get recognized or thanks every night. There were some seasons that they never asked me to come back til a month before the season started they assumed that I was going to be there.

Pardon me but I believe you are totally out of line. You are not a part of the L & L Motorsports team therefore you have absolutley no insight as to what happens behind closed doors. Now come on, don't go around making negative comments about a business in which you have no affilation stricly because you have one side of the story. Anyone who knows Dustin and the L & L Motorsports team is quite overjoyed. Congrats to all at L & L! Thank you for your well wishes.
