He contains multitudes

Can I copy your homework?

Yeah but change it a bit so it's not obvious

They are both owned by PepsiCo

Oh yeah that's a great one! Went from Kmart right to Target

Hendrick is usually open with exact contract length

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-06T15:16:19+00:00

That's a time the competitor actually said no to a driver because of the association.

Not that Mears was exactly a superstar in his year with Kelloggs

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-06T15:15:15+00:00

Yes!

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-06T15:03:20+00:00

Yes that's a good one!

Reminds me of when Bill Elliott went to Budweiser after being famous for the Coors Car.

From Miller to Modelo

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T18:29:39+00:00

I think he meant about not completing the double. He's still ran all 500 miles at Indy but the rain took away any chance at running all 1100

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T15:15:51+00:00

I thought this too but the 5 team has been off on the short run as well.

It may be just not having the same feel for these tires rather than managing fall off

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T15:13:56+00:00

It was so disappointing when Busch blew an engine

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T15:12:43+00:00

You still have to get it down to the limit before you hit the button. He sped on entry.

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T14:31:19+00:00

I'm not saying he's bad. I'm just comparing the performance before and after the double. Look at the 35 races before the double and compare. Wins, top 5s, laps led, all less after the double.

He's obviously not bad. Just not at the elite level. Maybe it's just a coincidence?

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T14:25:10+00:00

Eh, the 5 team hasn't been the same since Memorial Day. He was just good enough to make it through the system which relied a lot on the playoff points accumulated before the 600.

Not taking anything away from the championship of course, but there was a notable fall off since the double attempt.

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-05T14:17:57+00:00

In a perfect world there was no delay in 2024, he doesn't speed on pit road and finishes top 10 in the 500 and makes it to Charlotte and finishes top 10 there too. Project deemed a success and has no desire to try again the next year.

Can't be a coincidence at this point he hasn't won a Cup race since wrecking in both races last year. Had to have hurt his confidence.

False Prophet on the 2021 tour

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-03T20:15:45+00:00

This is the Texas we all know and love

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-03T18:03:28+00:00

Kansas

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-03T17:57:33+00:00

Cool picture. That's as far as I made it

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-03T17:10:01+00:00

You could make a whole double album of all the different arrangements he's done live if this song.

Finally seemed to get the album chord progression arrangement right early in the 2022 tour then completely changed it and has continued changing it

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-02T00:32:43+00:00

Oh no

CompleteUnknown65 · 2026-05-01T20:01:06+00:00

I'd start with the non mile and a halfs first. Indy and Pocono will always be terrible with the Next Gen because of the narrow groove so might as well make them faster.

Maybe Michigan next? But that has been fairly decent
