MÜLE_9242;6818820Alright, I've been informed of some new details about Jakob that I wasn't previously aware of. This has led to some minor changes.
Jakob, as of right now will not be racing at Daytona or SSRX. I will be taking over in those races. Jakob will still race at the other tracks, but will be on a very short leash. On the other hand, if he improves, I'll allow him back at the drafty tracks, pending a team test.
I think this is fair for everyone.
Honestly, if you work on the side with Jakob you will see he is very capable of being a team player. Mudd and I had tested with him sometime ago during the chase and he was 100% all good, for real, I'm serious. I think his inexperience gets his nerves when he is around everyone. Just spend some time in practice with the guy and I'm sure he will do alright and be allowed back at the drafty tracks again. Just tell him not to pull any Crazy's and I think other drivers will be just fine with him there.

Errr no. 👎
Well put it this way.....he can make his tires last 30 laps at Indy and 40 at Daytona. If I recall that's about twice as many laps on tires than you were doing last series

Then why didn't you take him? I don't understand. There was a point you still had seats to fill and he was crying out.
Give the kid a break guys. Let's see him on track again. It's been a while since we were all ..... Jakob'd.
And I would say Crazy; testing with you and Mudd is one thing, racing in a pack of 15 cars is quite another 👍
Car management is one thing. Respectable driving is another.
You both are right, I justed wanted to tell you from my experience with him on track what he is actually capable of doing. That's all. And good luck with that car management Furi
You know I couldn't resist Furi! Weren't we one of the rivalries of the series before ???

Sorry for the double post.....but I did want to comment on that.
I did consider him just for the sake of pis'n u guys off more. But I declined!
That sounds more like trolling then seriously giving the championship a go, speaking of which, shouldn't you be focused on Sprint Cup more as that is actually what you are running pts for?
@Everyone, Good luck with this weekend, i'll be watching this thread and the fortunes of the #43 and #99 team. 👍
I was under the understanding that this series was created specifically for drivers who weren't quite ready for the Sprint Cup. If that's the case, then it should work fine. Mule is aware of the previous issues Jakob has had and has limited his schedule to accommodate the problem areas. It seems to be under control, that should be enough said on the topic.

JakobNascar88Thank you guys, I would like to race on saturday at daytona.
Can I get a interview?
DrifterJoeWill the point for pole work the same as in sprint cup? (whoever gets the fastest time gets the point regardless off where they actually start)
Also. Is 2/3 points on offer for standing in for a driver who can't make a race?
