SHR ends up with KB too and it kicks off a 16 year period of dominance where it becomes the Kyle-Kyle show, each winning 8 championships. Their reign is brought to an end when Jimmie Johnson has their aircraft sabotaged in separate incidents, like Junior Johnson did to Alan Kulwicki and Davey Allison in ’93.

In reply to @ParadiseCity1329. Kahne was reportedly also a contender for the #41 team for 2020 before retirement happened.

I think the last straw for stewart was losing larson. First he was soured by Harvick losing 2020, then Larson at the same time…he was out of fucks to give at that point.

In reply to @jareddiamond5133. They wouldn’t have brought back the 5 car and SHR was gonna close either way. The only reason they had the 5 car was because they had to rebrand the 48 car. There was no way ally would sponsor Larson but they wanted Larson in the 24/48 half of the hendrick garage. The 88 became the new 48 and the old 48 became the 5. With SHR, you can only elevate equipment so much. In the end, the team still goes belly up because you’re not getting 4 cars consistent finishes.

In reply to @tanjirouzumaki144. Denny would have at least been the favorite in 2021 if Larson wasn’t there. He went winless through the regular season and still somehow almost stole the regular season championship from Larson. If Larson is in the 14 Hamlin would clear the field at least in points

Ford said No, Tony fought tooth and nail to get Kyle in a SHR car. Ford said No, so they deserved this part of the sinking ship.

In reply to @JackCallSports. I completely agree, that'd totally happen

In reply to @JackCallSports. @@darthhull85 word about something like that would probably get around pretty quick in all honesty.

He wouldn’t have had a season like 2021 and no title.

The only team any driver should pick against HMS is JGR. HMS was and is always going to be the best option. SHR might’ve been better than CGR but not great.

In reply to @JackCallSports. @@JackCallSports I’m not denying anything you said, but who’s to say the exact same scenario didn’t happen at HMS and Chevy was all in while ford wasn’t? Realistically there is no way in my mind that SHR would have been his top pick given the equipment difference and the fact that Rick was clearly willing to fund Larson’s entire first season with the team out of pocket. The entire time it only seemed like he’d go to SHR if the HMS deal fell through.
