It looks like Tony traded The Mad Man for The Macho Man. Just goes to show you how the #55 team placed a lot of emphasis on obtaining the 8th place place season finish in the High Limit standings in 2026. As soon as Kerry slipped to 9th place in the standings he was out. I like both drivers and wish Kerry luck going forward.

I know Sprint Car racing is performace based, but man Kerry has had a lot of hard luck recently leading to bad finishes. He has been in the wrong place at the wrong time resulting in slot of town up cars and bad finishes. I like him and hopes he gets another opportunity, as father Time is not on his side.

Not sure what options they had. You trade a guy who made the A through three nights of tough fields for a guy who ran the C all three nights and only made the B one time no A's. I guess this week will tell. Sometimes a change lights a fire under drivers.

Tough Business. Known Kerry for a long time and He has had some bad racing luck lately and his age is not in his favor but can still run upfront .
