First, I love your articles. Just my perception, but it seems like Ty Gibbs is the root of the problem here.

Frankly, I hope Gabehart prevails in this matter. He is one of the top minds in the business and the limits placed on him by JGR relative to the 54 team likely provide crystallized insight into why the 54 is still winless in Cup after three-plus seasons and over 100 starts. Family is always going to get the nod, but it also exemplifies less than 100% commitment to winning. Much like the 23XI/FRM-NASCAR lawsuit, it would be in the best interests to settle this quickly, and out of court. The big, bad JGR empire strikes again. Hopefully, strikes out!

Thanks for the great article. I really don’t know what to think. I’m retired from Norm Millers battery company and worked a lot of hospitality in my 18 years so my perspective is slanted as I interacted a lot with JGR

JGR, Joe Gibbs and Chris Gabehart are all well respected. The fact that this could happen is sad in my mind because they are good people. This business is insane competitive and it's so public. I guess this probably happens in big business and we don't always hear about it. This, however, will be disected minute by minute and I understand why. It's being stripped open by legal action ...and it's not pretty. Thanks for reading and for being a part of the Dialed In Journal. I'll keep you posted on it Jimmie!
