Losing interest? Family life weighing heavy on his head? His interviews about how they are going to approach the season sounds like a walk-away is forthcoming.
Probably doesn't help that the family business has got to be contending with some lean times as well, with energy in the commode as of late...

I can't imagine this is the case with the "Drill Baby Drill" policies of the Trump administration. Their business should be getting better than ever. So the money should be there. But the time to race - maybe not so much for awhile. Sounds like racing part time is still in the cards. And as we have seen in recent years, they could still make the countdown on a part-time schedule.

look at the oil price. it's following the current stock market. they don't drill if the money's not there
 
I kinda thought it sounded like maybe if this year isnt fun maybe walk away for at least awhile. Does his mom still go to the races or does she stay home with the grand kids??

From what I read that is because one of the countries dumped a bunch to screw some other country over. Our drill baby drill is to become independent not necessarily cheaper. One person I know involved with gas and oil says they have hired everyone back and are ready to go gung ho. More likely Capco won't have time to race. Just based on people I know.
 
Meh, he was talking about his team not getting along and I get it, that kind of crap just isn’t necessary. He said they’re out here to have fun, and if they can’t do that, then they’ll just pack it up and go home. I totally agree….. you’re racing a top fuel dragster for Chrissakes. If that’s not fun, then what is?

Perspective ….you guys who aren’t getting along.

I am a owner of numerous very prosperous wells and am very versed in what's happening in the industry. 1st: the US is oil independent already. Problem is 2: We export oil because all the new oil finds have been for the oil called West Texas Sweet (WTI). It is the highest quality oil out there but our refineries are set up to refine Heavy Crude and cannot refine WTI. So we export WTI and buy Heavy Crude from Canada and other countries. With tariffs on both importing and exporting we are already seeing less daily production in the US. The break even point for the oil companies is $55 per barrel and we are getting close which has already showed down new well drilling. BAKER HUGHES tracks all the drilling rigs in the US and has already seen a marked decrease of active drilling rigs and are expecting a major decrease. The Major oil companies have stated that DRILL BABY DRILL is one of dumbest things they have heard and isn't going to happen, they are not going to sell oil at a loss.
 
Only Steve knows the truth everything else is just speculation. When he was asked about part time this year he mentioned his wife, 2 young daughters and helping run the family business. They are a self funded team and it's not cheap to field one TF car let alone two. Regardless of oil prices I think they are making money but maybe less and his parents aren't getting any younger so maybe he is taking on more responsibility. Don't know if any other family is involved. And if your not having fun anymore why spend all that money that is coming out of your business.
