I think today's drivers are hesitant to get into a rivalry because they could be the bad guy. Look at Jimmie Johnson. There was a period of time here this year he was booed everywhere he went. No one likes to be booed. I don't care who you are.
It was very disappointing to NASCAR and the entire industry that drivers did not show up for various awards. It shows a lack of respect for the history and tradition of the sport.
The drivers and the teams need to work things out. We understand that this is a high-emotion sport. It's pretty clear we're going to take this out of the drivers' hands and put it into our hands.
