Kraig Kinser and Tyler Walker also had similar opportunities once upon a time. Will see if he makes anything of this. Hopefully the other drivers are able to maintain safe driving conditions with a Swindell circling the track.

It is not fair to say Kevin is a troll just because he is a Swindell, but I get where you're coming from.

Bought Ride, Why the sarcasm? As a huge dirt track fan we all should be thrilled each time a member of the Dirt Family gets this opportunity...How did it happen for Kevin...Let's say he has been a racer and around a track his whole life. He has talent, resume, personality, a million dollar smile, and perserverance....In short STICKABILITY
Now lets sit back and enjoy his opportunity with him. Be positive people

I wouldn't expect too much from him. I mean...after all...he's never won a feature at the "Port" or the "Grove!" 
|
Yes, this is true. Everyone knows feature winners at the Port and Grove have gone on to stellar careers. Not all of them were racing careers, but stellar none the less.
Kevin does have one common characteristic of successful Posse drivers... he is from Memphis!
DOH!

Their ride was not for sale. This team, Biagi-DenBeste Racing, has very deep pockets.
Serious...

It is fair to say you are a troll because of your dumb ass post.

" marginal talent at best"
And you're a professional at rating the racing talent level of individuals? How long have you held such an esteemed position?
While I am not a fan of the "Racing Swindell family" I think I have somewhat of an eye for talent and you badly missed on this one!

THIS coming from someone who thinks PA sprint car racing is better than anywhere else???....iv'e been going to sprint car races since 1984 dufus,even before the sprint cars they were called supermodifieds out here in cali. iv'e had the pleasure of watching legends like howard keading,mike sargent,nick rescino win track championships at san jose speedway and also going to baylands and watching greats like jimmy sills,chuck gurney,leland mcspadden,tim green. so when i say MARGINAL talent bro ,i speak the truth! just because he won X number of chili bowls doesn't qualify him as a "great" talent and his last name is the ONLY reason he got that ride! bud keading and kyle larson + about a dozen other young talented drivers out here would run circles around jr swindell,WING AND NON WING....

Good Luck Kevin, I wish IRL could offer the same potential as NASCAR but not yet.

Raider...you need to rethink this and pay closer attention to what you respond to on here!
"THIS coming from someone who thinks PA sprint car racing is better than anywhere else"
I'm about as far from Posse land as is possible...well...almost!
