Johnny Sauter Gets a Shot
Johnny Sauter will be joining Richard Childress Racing, driving the #2 Busch car in conjunction with Kevin Harvick, ie. the dates that Kevin's running in a Winston Cup race. This works out to about 15-18 races for Johnny. Not only that, but his BROTHER, Jay, will also be joining RCR, driving the #21 car when Jeff Green ventures up to WC. As of right now, Jay still has a tentative commitment to drive the #43 car for Curb-Agjanian Motorsports, when he's not in the #21. Confused yet?
Congratulations to Harvick, Sour Grapes for Green
Kevin Harvick took the win in the Food City 250 at Bristol, but somehow managed to tick off his teammate, Jeff Green. Apparently it all started on lap 228, when Green complained that Harvick pushed him out of the way to take 2nd place. Green showed his displeasure, in a very bratty way, by repeatedly ramming the back of Harvick's Chevy during the next caution.
At lap 236, Biffle blew a tire and Harvick and Green pulled into 1st and 2nd spots. Harvick easily kept Green behind him for the last 14 laps. On the victory lap, Green pulled up beside Harvick and squalled loudly, banging into his door. This is the cool part: Harvick responded by pulling away and doing a burnout at the start/finish line, sending thick white smoke into Green's car. Ha ha!
Green whined, "I guess that's the way to win them now and it's good action for the fans. He's out there doing burnouts, so I guess he'll sleep well tonight. If he wants to win races like that, that's fine. But that's not how Jeff Green does it -- I'll finish second before I do that."
First of all, can you PLEASE stop referring to yourself in the third person, Jeff? And we all know that you'd win a race using any method possible, it's just that none of them worked at Bristol.
