He will be sorely missed.

Now he will have some time for what he is REALLY good at.........Golf. The man can swing a mean stick.......I think he has like a 2 handicap!!

He should be pretty busy working for ESPN...Toyota too.

I'm still wondering why headbanger picked him for his C driver? Sentimental favorite there or something?

He's been a race car driver for my entire life. I grew up watching him. It's weird that he's done racing.

From a competitive standpoint I bet he's glad to retire.

Does it really matter beyond the top 2-3 guys right now for the C group? Was slightly for the what if he does well for his last race and had past champion provision. Jarrett did better than Vickers :smile:. Also Brian was not locked into the show but is now. I used Riggs twice too and didn't want to use him up trying to fight for 2nd or 3rd.

Well stated banger of heads. And Vickers was only 2 spots back! Glad I didn't use him up this weekend too!

Vickers was running well till he smacked the wall with about 10 to go. Jarrett looked like he ran the last 20 laps on the apron letting the faster cars go by him. Me still being new the this "sport" was sad seeing him go out like that.

He has always been a class act. The only thing I ever wanted to see him do was to race the truck!!! hehe
