Silly season, Aug. 8 edition
It's been nice knowing you, Jason Leffler.
Mulhern hinted at it in today's Winston-Salem paper, but any race fan with a pulse knew it was a matter of when, not if. Leffler didn't race at Sonoma in June, and he was going to be bumped for Sunday's race at Watkins Glen. Neither one was a good sign.
The intriguing thing here: Terry Labonte, JJ Yeley and Denny Hamlin will be splitting seat time. I see two of those guys making their way to the Cup series pretty soon thanks to a little help from the boss.
