"I know what you're thinking--did I go six laps down or only five?"
No doubt you've been busy lately--what with the holidays, weather changes, false apocalypse and whatnot. Instead of forcing you to scan typo-riddled Jayski articles, here's a quick rundown of some recently-announced…um, announcements from the Nascar Truck Series:
--Joey "JoJo Junior…Shabadoo?" Coulter has signed with Kyle Busch Motorsports for next season. Its starting to look more and more like RCR is going to become Legacy Kid Racing.
--Speaking of Legacy Kid Racing, Brendan Gaughan will compete for RCR in the Truck Series next year, with sponsorship from his Daddy.
--Jon Wes Townley moves to Red Wes Horse in 2013, bringing his joined-at-the-hip Zaxby's sponsorship with him. This displaces Todd Bodine about three years later than it should have.
--Joe Denette Motorsports and NTS Motorsports are merging to form what they call a "powerhouse". Um, I don't think that any organization with Ron Hornaday playing a major part could be considered a "Powerhouse".
--Jeb Burton joins Turner "No Fans Allowed!" Motorsports for 2013. Jeb's father Ward will also join the team in a management position, working on what he calls "Dwivah Devewopmen".
-Parker Kligerman is leaving the Truck Series to run full-time in the Nationwide Series for Kyle Busch Motorsports. Hmmm--Kligerman, Kurt Busch, they're really establishing a dream team of former Penske-affiliated drivers there. Where's David Stremme when you need him?
--Finally, SS Green Light Racing is looking for a replacement for Ross Chastain, preferably one with watermelon-based sponsorship.
