Great news, I wish them much success.

 

[my friends call me Zappy]

Great news indeed, hope it turns into a full season for her.

 

[mick]

would expect and hope this trend continues at upcoming events......quakerstate, fireade and leah......ummmm, let me think about this for about 1 second......yes, you can drive my car

 

[Nunz]

I'm a fan of Leah's, still bummed Fireade didn't renew with Larry. Just too many racers chasing too few dollars...

Definitely didn't see the first part of this coming.

How does that work with the BVR part, call all the recently fired employees and say hey lets go do it one more time then back to unemployment?

 

[qtermile14]

Guger is still employed to liquidate the equipment, so BVR still has a tuner. I doubt most of the crew members are employed elsewhere, so it's money for them. Also, Bob had to know he had this commitment to fulfill, so he may have kept a skeleton crew on retainer for this last race.

 

[mick]

she had a 5 race deal with QS and she's done 3 so far.

QS headquartered in houston; they weren't gonna' miss this race. bob's car has all the QS body panels, the trailer with QS wrap and everything else with QS all over it. time to race in houston. this weekend will be the best solution for this one race between
QS, BVR and DSR.

 

[Butch]

Bob's got his fingers crossed that QS steps up with $$. So Leah can buy accomplete race package.
Equipment & crew.

 

[Nunz]

I don't see a 5 race deal expanding into enough money to buy an entire team and add more races. But hey, you never know...

 

[mick]

if QS wants to maintain a relationship with Leah Pruett, i would take a .02 guess they've probably got at least two
very interested groups talking to them already. hope there's a future for both.

Come on JFR, Brittany and Leah would make pretty cool teamates...

I think it's funny that there wasn't even a quote from Bob Vandergriff in that entire article! You think he would at least have something to say, oh well!

 

[Big Daddy]

Anyone else here on the show today them mention Leah was gonna be in a DSR car at Atlanta?

Which car or 4th car?

Kuddos to DON for putting her in a car, so far she hasn't missed a race. Now if Connolly could also get a contending ride...........

Right now with super low car count Pro Stock could use Connolly more

Funny there is no announcement on DSR page?

What a stupid thing to say. It wasn't an article it was a "Rumor Mill" rumor.
