They got the charter from Germain Racing (team Ty Dillon drove the 13 car for).

So Dillon is going to drive the 23 (or is entered in the Clash) and what car is Bubba supposedly driving? Or is he still with Petty for one more year?

Like this guy a lot. I also expect him to win his first this season, and when he does, he'll get a few more in a short span after that. Just has to get that monkey off his back.

It's a one race thing. Bubba was not eligible for the clash. Ty Dillon was. Plus Ty is now in the Toyota family.

And I think Larson is gonna have a big year also.

Hendrick is gonna have a nice 1-2 punch with those two

Yep. Rick knows how to pick them. 13 Cup titles would prove that. LOL.

I have been on the Burrito bandwagon since he was a rookie. I do not know why I jumped on it. But I knew I made a good call by the way he reacted over a T10 finish his rookie year in Cup. As we say in the South, he's good people.

Dillon is only driving the 23 in the Clash, because he is eligible for the Clash because he won a stage in a race last season (I think at Talladega). Bubba Wallace isn't eligible, so this is a way to have the 23 car raced in the Clash. Otherwise, he will drive the 96 car for Gaunt Brothers Racing part-time in the Cup Series, and the 54 car part-time for Gibbs in the Xfinity Series.

Is it too early for me to complain that the cars need to be silhouettes of the car we buy on show rooms? Or should I wait until actual racing happens?

So wait if the Daytona 500 is Sunday, are the Duels setting the field including the pole? I have not paid a lick of attention to motorsports lately, so excuse the ignorance.
