Richard Petty Motorsports has new owner/investor
http://nascar.speedtv.com/article/cu...owners-for-rpm
The marriage of Richard Petty Motorsports and Medallion Financial Corp. ultimately came together quickly, but had been talked about for years.
On Monday morning, RPM announced that the assets of the racing team were sold to “an investment group comprised of Richard Petty, Medallion Financial Corp. and DGB Investments.” Although ownership percentages were not announced, it’s likely that Petty will remain a minority owner of the team, holding a small stake, as he did when RPM was owned by George Gillett, the disgraced sports entrepreneur.DVR . . . . . Life is too short to watch commercials.

Congrats to the Petty organization for keeping the doors open on an organization that (for a second tier team) should be very competitive, has a real shot at winning a race or two, and should keep both cars in the top 35 all year. Todd Parrot was just announced as the crew chief for (the #9 car driven by) Marcos Ambros. Good Luck!

Cool
Plasma tv's are okay, but I'm holding out for whole blood. :vampire:
I think the biggest question is, as usual per gravel rallies, will the Hyundais hold together? Long day with no service tomorrow...
