One less pedregon on the tour after indy?

Gut feeling is that Q-State sponorship is very minimal $$ now (not a fact, just a feeling). Since Tony is #1 in points and may not have enough cash to stay ahead in the points, Cruz may have thought is would/could be the best option to let Tony drive the AAP car and possibly win the title for Tony and AAP.
Some times you gotta take the 'needle out of your arm' and do what is best for your family and your business.

This would make Tony beating Cruz at Brainerd a little more tolerable as well.........

Needle out of the Arm, that must be my problem!

There is an extremely good chance that many if not all of the current contracts stipulate that if the sponsored driver does not make the Clowndown, funding will either stop or be greatly reduced.

NHRA helped to cause this situation by adopting this stupid points format.

The Clowndown?? LMAO!!!

Looks like Cruz sees it differently .

I can't disagree with those statements.

I'm not a fan of Cruz, but that is straight shooting if ever I heard it.

Good for Cruz ... I like to hear it straight from the source like that, unfiltered.
