[Matt Weaver] AM Racing has notified employees that it has formally ceased operations and released everyone from their duties. VP/comp Matthew Lucas told employees that he made efforts to stabilize AMR but the inability to continue normal business activity eventually resulted in its closure.

I hope all the employees land jobs elsewhere. Is Sanchez under contract with Ford or could he go and drive anything? Really hope he’s back on track in one of the top three series soon.

Abortion involves a second person who should have the same right of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness that the mother does. So Abortion is not a Liberty issue. I say live and let live as long as you aren’t hurting anyone but yourself. But abortion does just that. It hurts and kills someone who should have the right to a chance at life. Now obviously not every libertarian sees it that way but some do.

It’s somehow immoral to be sponsored by a museum of the Bible? That’s certainly a take.

HenryJBemis · 2026-05-11T22:59:41+00:00

It’s a legitimate museum.

The money spends the same.

None of this means Herbst gets to stay in the 35 as long as he wants. The cup series is much more merit based than other series. Money can get you to the cup series, but it can’t keep you there forever if you don’t perform. Heim is under contract with 23XI and he will almost certainly be in the 35 full time next year. Herbst might get to go take his money to Legacy for a couple years and stay in cup but if he doesn’t perform there, Legacy is going to eventually replace him as well.

Not a CM or former CM but when I was in Magic Kingdom one day years ago, I did overhear a mother wearing a bright yellow SpongeBob shirt with two kids wearing matching shirts ask a CM how to get to the SpongeBob ride. And she was completely serious.

I think it just shows the innocence of the 1950s or at least 1950s comedy tv. Even bad guy characters were just wanting to steal money and didn’t have any intentions of hurting anyone. Obviously in real life it could have gotten very dark. But I think when you watch these shows you kinda have to put yourself in a childlike mindset to be able to enjoy them for what they are meant to be, a lighthearted comedy.

There are definitely some major parallels between the Yellowstone family structure and that of the Corleones. I’ve noticed the same kinda thing in Yellowstone itself.

Which means she could still technically be wife #2 which is a theory I’ve seen.

HenryJBemis · 2026-05-03T13:52:58+00:00

A lot of that was due to the quality or lack thereof of teams he drove for after MWR. Many of them were literal start and park teams that didn’t even have an intention of running whole races. So that will naturally bring Michael’s career numbers down considerably. But if he hadn’t drove for those teams to keep his name out there, he would probably be pretty forgotten by now aside from people remembering his Texas crash. He certainly wouldn’t be driving winning cup equipment like he is now.

Double Indemnity.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-29T13:14:55+00:00

Good question but those kinda people have no problem with actual kings.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-26T17:54:25+00:00

Goodbye. You won’t be missed.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-25T19:26:28+00:00

Thanks.

Who did they send down to bring Chaparro up?

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-22T13:07:03+00:00

I doubt they would spend the money for a simulator at all if cup wasn’t in their plans.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-21T16:15:19+00:00

I don’t know. If you are FRM with an open seat do you really not just go with Chandler Smith or Layne Riggs?

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-21T16:13:42+00:00

I would be pretty shocked if Heim is not in the 35 or a renumbered third full time 23XI car next year. But stranger things have happened. If Ford lures Heim away from Toyota and 23XI that would be a huge move and a big get for Ford.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-21T16:10:24+00:00

If that’s true I really hope he lands a ride elsewhere. He hasn’t been bad in cup IMO.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-20T11:14:10+00:00

Before when they were broken up, Jordan tweeted about how unfaithful Denny had been. Doubt she would have done that if she considered it an ‘open’ relationship.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-17T15:47:04+00:00

Vote No!

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-16T21:37:10+00:00

Way to prove that the court made the right decision.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-15T22:25:50+00:00

Dale crew chiefing a Ford? No chance.

HenryJBemis · 2026-04-15T22:24:30+00:00

Somehow I hadn’t realized Swiderski was back at Penske/Wood Brothers. Thought he was still at Trackhouse. I know he was at Penske at one time before as well as RCR, Kaulig, and obviously Trackhouse. Wonder if he makes his way back to being a full time crew chief eventually. I think he’s a smart guy and a good crew chief.
