we were at the Opryland Hotel years ago waiting on a valet to bring our car up and Kyle, his wife and Adam just happened to come up right beside us. There were people all around us and I didn't want to make a scene so I just nodded my head at him and he smiled really big and got into his limo. I have always wondered what would have happened if I would've spoken up.
There is no way Petty Enterprises should leave NASCAR. It takes a lot to get me to watch a race anymore, but I still follow along with the season. If Petty Enterprises left the scene that would likely be the last straw for me. I know they haven't been that good in years, but it's still tradition. It's about the only old school tradition NASCAR has left.
