Sure was!!!! There's a whole bunch of these young kids in the Nationwide and truck series that have a lot of talent! It will sure be fun to watch them mature and move up to the Cup series!!! Many years ago my friend Lyle and I were in Pheonix for USAC races and watched this young California kid do some really first rate driving. Lyle told me after the kid won the USAC midget race, "That kid's good, we're going to see him win a lot more races!". Lyle still likes to remind me of this everytime we watch the kid, Tony Stewart, win another race!!!!!

During yesterdays race the announcers were discussing Sam Hornish. One of the announcers said he was talking with Roger Penske who admitted that he did Sam wrong by throwing him straight into the cup cars! Now that Sam is down in N'wide he's doing so much better and getting his confidence back. He's now learning all the tools that he'll need for the premier series!

Jack said yesterday too that they hope to find Stenhouse a ride in cup and go for another championship with Trevor Bayne in N'wide. Jack will be once again working through / with the Wood Bros. as he has NOTHING! He's even losing his championship winning crew chief unless someone steps up with some cash to fund a crew!
