Good. I’m never did understand why he was brought in to this Series. He is and always be a bully.
Once a spook always a spook.
Hopefully Paul Tracy’s suspension is for life. I would say he’s been taking driving lessons from Denny Hamlin, but he’s sucked at racing since back when Denny was just competing in go-karts
