Partnering with CJB for 26.  

I'm happy to see Schatz on the tour again and confident he can compete for wins.

Looks like Crouch will still be in the HL Tour ride, with that team holding a charter / franchise / high roller club card?  Unsure who is going to wrench for Brenham or how sponsorship will be split.

Obviously DS has a following of sponsors, and Brenham's father is apart of Hi Plains. 

Regardless I'm happy to see DS and Brenham on the tour. 

Keep It Real

Good chance Donny wins a few races.  We shall see!

Wow.  The Schatz news has hardly made a blip on this message board.

I wish DS well but if you look at CJB's record for the last 4 or 5 years it is not to good. And in my opinion CJB and Barry Jackson are a little bipolar.   If you read what Barry has said every time the teams changes drivers it makes your head spin. He wanted rid of Gravel because he couldn't communicate with a young driver.  So they got Shane Stewart because him and Barry were from the same generation.   Then CJB got rid of Stewart because they needed a young gasser, and got Marks.  Then while doing all the switching of drivers the team and Barry especially,  wanted off the road.  They did that for a year and then said " we need to be with a tour and on the road".  So Marks left and in came Bayston and nothing and then Crouch.  And remember last year Barry wanted off the road again and CJB was going to hire Tye Wolfgang.   Now Barry is all gunho ready to be on the road with Donny.

All I keep hearing is crew help and parts and engines are hard to come by.  How are they going to put this together in 45 days?

To me I thought to story on SprintCar Unlimited made it sound as if all 5 cars that were ready are now going to be Donny's.  Because Barry said it was neat to see Donny's name on the cars.   Earlier it was said that they had cars ready for Crouch.

It seems maybe Crouch is going to get the short end of the stick.  His stuff will now be rushed to get cars and motors .  He has to now work with the new crew chief and crew.  Maybe Daddy wants a refund on the money he is spending.
