Does anyone know if JDR is finished for year? I hope they show at Dallas, Vegas and Pomona.

Looks like they are on for the west coast races! Makes me wonder about next year tho.

I'm going to take a guess and say that Jim's age and lack of mobility is making it more and more difficult for him to fly all the way across the country.

I think this may be what's going on. Isn't Big Jim over 90?

I too wonder if the team will keep going once Jim is gone. And if so, who will they use for Crew Chief? I assume Jim is still making the tuning calls?

If they had a sponsor for the race, they would be there. When they lost Losenko, they lost the funding to fill the gaps in their sponsorships. There has been talk for years about Jonna getting a nitro license. I would think that is a real possibility if they are running a partial schedule in the future. I also think Jon has been making most of the tuneup calls the last few years. I would love to see them get a big sponsor deal that would allow them to run harder while Jim is still able to attend the races.

I don't recall hearing where the Dunn team is based out of these days. Where do they go when they sit out races? Do they lease shop space in Brownsville?
