I heard a monster of a rumor yesterday, I guess we'll wait and see.

The announcement this morning for JFR?

AP just put out an article saying Brittany is retiring, so based on Paul's comment looks like Hart will be in the Monster car.

In fairness, JFR hasn't shared anything on their socials or website either. Seems the press release got leaked a little bit early, but my guess is they are waiting for the formal presser in about half an hour.

Josh would bring money. Jordan probably not. But you never know

Josh and R&L will be continuing their TF endeavors next year in 2026…stay tuned!

Josh said it on NHRA TV yesterday. He's not going to stop racing, and R&L isn't going to stop their sponsorship. I say he's going to Brittany's car.

IDK about that, John was pretty choosy about Jack and IMO, I believe he would have other ideas here too...

It will be announced by SEMA, count on it. Josh gave it a thumbs up on FB yesterday, and then shortly after, Rob Wendland reposted the same. The thing is, John had a sponsor for that funny car, but he has had a hard time keeping Brittany's car funded. Josh Hart will bring full time funding with him.

a comment and question that has NOTHING to do with 2026 and where josh may end up.
r&l carriers sister company r&l global logistics. doing a little research, it says r&l global logistics uses
a network of carriers and their own global logistics partners to arrange air freight services.
i wonder if kalitta air works with them? would be interesting to know.
