Me - If money was no option I would have one of everthing. Pure stock, street stock, modified, limited mod, latemodel, maybe a sprint for ocrs or ascs. Probably take a couple of rigs to put it all in but go to tracks and ask what i can run. And pull out every car to run every class i could that night. Hmmm, might have to have a little help to run each night? I have other ideas but heck this is just a dream thing right????

I would buy a complete outlaw operation for Wayne Johnson and put him on the WoO tour.
While he might not do it again, I would buy a complete 360 sprint car operation and put Danny Jennings on the ASCS national tour.
A two car USMTS team with Dustin Buntin and Shawn Jorski.
An outlaw late model team that would pick and choose their races with Justin Allen behind the wheel.
I mention those guys above because they are smooth and fast drivers and would take care of my investment. All they need is money behind them to become very successfull. IMO

I would buy a USAC Silver Crown dirt car for Wayne to drive when he had an off day. Dirt of course.

I'm thinking........
Christopher Bell, Blake Hahn, and Karley Kay Dobson.
although I really could mention like all top 8 of the ASCS2 Non Wing class - I think in terms of the sheer talent in that field and furthermore the show they put on - best class of open wheel cars in the state. There are a couple dozen micro drivers who have a ton of talent - I suspect ya'll will see them on the big tracks soon enough 
Outside of that 2010 hasn't been a season to make me care about the bigger tracks.......
but I would love to see what Joe Wood Jr. could do on the ASCS National Tour with an unlimited budget
How much would could a wouldchuck chuck if a

I would love to have a team with Hughes, Eddie Martin, Jorski, and Jeff Rozelle, if i had funds of course I would race, but IMO Rozelle prolly does more with less than alot of other guys..put Jorski n Rozelle in some USMTS type ride and let them get some seat time and you would have a pretty nice team....I'm happy with running 5th in that team! lol

This is a pretty cool thread!!! If I had a crap load of money I would own several different race teams and my drivers are as follows:
World of Outlaws: Jack Dover & Danny Jennings (2 car team)
WoO Late Models" Stanley Reed Jr. & Steve Smith
ASCS: Garry Owens & Kenneth Walker
OCRS: Larry Neighbors & Shala Waddel
Midget: Brady Bacon(Full Time) & Kevin Bayer(Pick and choose)
ASCS 2: Kevin Bayer, Christopher Bell, & Donnie Ray Crawford.
Wow I must have a crap load of money cause a few of them drivers are gonna tear up some stuff. Lol But at least they are on the gas haulin' a.....

I always said if I won the lotto I would put Danny Jennings in a WoO sprinter. I would put Cheese in an ASCS car for the National tour. I would never own a race car with fenders. Lol I think with a huge budget these two could get some things done. Plus it would just be fun racing.

Kyle, Best idea on that last line, a stretched limo type cart that is painted in bright flourescent colors so that we will be noticed and our names on each side of the cart "1i" and "Speedo" and it also has to have cool lookin/high dollar chrome wheels ,seen some at Lawton on Carts in the past several weeks when there and a built in cooler for frosty beverages and snacks of all sorts and a GPS system in case we have to many frosty beverages and get lost and sirius radio and on board computer and a 19" TV screen built in so we can keep up with all the latest motorsports news and a cubby hole full of Goody's Headache Powder and Pepto Bismol for all that racetrack food and for those headaches and so on and we can buy that economy bottle and use if needed and or hand them out to owners and drivers who look like they could use a powder when strollin the pit area in our cart.
U can drive!!!.
