I don’t see Joe getting quality unless the regulars out of town.  The same trainers have been using the same drivers for years.  Will Joe get drives yes will he get quality drives I don’t think so
   I disagree Joe will get quality stock to drive. My guess Virgil's next full time driver. He has been using everybody lately.

No way he is Virgil’s next full time driver in OH.  He never drove for him out east

It is a pretty simple formula. The more you win, the more drives you get. Like, dislike, big mouth, jerkoff, none of that matters.

Joe is a carbon copy of Hunter Myers, just what the driving colony needs another non intelligent slasher. I hear Joe can read and write though.

Does this mean Joe & Jenn are getting divorced?

Will Joey be afforded those same holes? a number of capable drivers. Page, B Miller, Noble, Sutton, Widger, three Smiths [trevor, Tyler, Jeremy] Kaufmann, Both Hanners, Trace Tetrick [for now] Wrenn and Merriman [at times] I look for him to hold his own but not a huge impact.

The Ohio tracks have done fine w/ the longtime driving group.  Joe spouts out like he's just gonna drop in and be welcomed.  Admittedly, the owners and trainers will switch to him if he's as good as advertised.  But - smart guy would can the brash trash and show some humility.  Hard to imagine that Page, J. Smith, Ty Smith, Noble, Miller, Tetrick et al are worried about losing their seat.   BUT! the top winning drivers show little loyalty, so- could be he forces some of the current colony fellas to ally w/ some stables - other than Burke.

he did alright in his short stint at Northfield a few years ago..... But then his driving style fits a Northfield.

The heat was getting intense, that's why this is happening.

Burke would be nuts to give Bongiorno first call over CHris Page ay the 5/8 ovals. Nor over Wrenn and the Meadows ( pa) . I do see him getting second call as Burke runs mant uncoupled entries all over the place.

This move does seem odd. It's possible there is more to come. I see many think that.  tmbz1

He may be a monkey in the bike far too much, but he is smart enough to know that there may be far more " trouble" ahead for Jen Jen and Daddy and a smart move would be to get far far away from said "trouble". Minus him doing all the work and then depending upon juice shipments only, Jen Jen is in really deep water considering she has no clue the head end from the hind end. Now one knows why mommy and daddy are not happy he's hitting the road.

Get a few Commissions away from NJ, tell the family to loose his number. Though the FBI probably have enough dirt, seems like he might be on to this. idea trying to beat the heat.
