This is Brandon's second hiatus this year.

I hope he made a conscious  to fine another career. I don't mean that as any reflection on his driving at all. He was improving.

But he and any other young driver would be better served in another career.

I hope you are ok Brandon. Merry Christmas

How many young drivers make a million in purses a year? Just think that equals $50,000. Can you think of drivers who make a half a million in purses, that's 25K. No future for most of the young guys, unless rich or married rich. lol  Same for young trainers

A lot of the young drivers have jobs in the business.  Just look at Brady Brown and Jeremy Indof where your are at the meadows.

Wondering the same thing about Justin Huckabone- he just abruptly stopped driving Monticello and pretty much any where else

A big difference between purse money at Monticello compared to the meadows.   And the meadows has at least 10 more races too!!
