Who's Gonna Buy The Stewart-Haas NASCAR Charters? · Kenny Wallace Media

• 0:02
  Well, as Dale Junior, say I then, I am in Mount Carmel, IL,
• 0:12
  all by my lonesome, all by myself.
• 0:16
  Everybody's too old to do anything with me.
• 0:19
  They're married and they got kids.
• 0:24
  It's just fine, though. I'm happy as I'll get out going
• 0:28
  down here to Willie's carburetors, get my motor tuned
• 0:32
  up, make sure I got the air mixture, fuel mixture going into
• 0:36
  each 8 cylinders perfectly. So with the announcement of
• 0:45
  Stewart Haas racing shut down there is there?
• 0:51
  There's one thing for sure out of all this, we're getting ready
• 0:55
  to find out something really big that everybody's been wanting to
• 0:58
  know. So NASCAR now has what we call
• 1:02
  these franchises in. In other words, if if you are in
• 1:07
  NASCAR to this day and you own a NASCAR Cup team, that that means
• 1:12
  you have a franchise like, like owning the McDonald's.
• 1:15
  Like, you know, you just can't have a McDonald's.
• 1:19
  You got to acquire a franchise. So, so McDonald's goes, OK, we
• 1:23
  let you have a franchise and now you own a McDonald's.
• 1:27
  It's kind of like that NASCAR now you just can't show up and
• 1:30
  race. I mean, I guess there's two
• 1:32
  spots at the at the end of the of the starting field.
• 1:38
  But I acknowledge that that's so they don't get sued.
• 1:44
  I guess. I guess you, I guess there's a
• 1:47
  couple people per race that can come in and qualify.
• 1:51
  Respond right here if I'm wrong just because.
• 1:53
  Just because I've raced NASCAR my whole life doesn't mean we
• 1:58
  know everything. You'd be surprised.
• 2:00
  The drivers that run every single damn race every week.
• 2:03
  It's hard to know all the rules, but there are two spots left
• 2:07
  every single weekend for you to qualify.
• 2:11
  But anyway, so now there's going to be 4 starting spots for sale.
• 2:20
  We call them franchises and. And this all started because,
• 2:24
  you know, you owned A-Team. And then when it was all over,
• 2:27
  you didn't have anything. You had brick and mortar.
• 2:31
  It meant all you had was a building.
• 2:33
  And now we're going to start selling everything like a fire
• 2:35
  sale. So the franchise means that, OK,
• 2:39
  now when it's over, you can sell your your starting spot.
• 2:43
  I'm going to sell you my starting spot on the field.
• 2:46
  So now Stewart Haas has four for sale with the announcement of
• 2:51
  them shutting down completely at the end of the year.
• 2:55
  So my dear friend Rick Mast over there on the Rick Mast show.
• 3:00
  Now Rick didn't make a show about it yet, but I'm interested
• 3:04
  to see if he does with Charlie Marlow because on X last night,
• 3:09
  Rick says, well, we're getting ready to see what what a
• 3:14
  franchise will sell for. So the thought was $40 million,
• 3:20
  11 franchise, $40 million. Well, Brad Keselowski says.
• 3:28
  And then also Kelly, Kelly Earnhardt, she pipes up and she
• 3:36
  goes, yeah, we're, we're 30 million short too, which I do
• 3:40
  want to say we're we're going to have Kelly Earnhardt on Kenny
• 3:43
  conversation. I want to repeat it because I
• 3:46
  think it's a pretty big deal. We are going to have Kelly
• 3:49
  Earnhardt on Kenny conversation. She said yes on X, but but I
• 3:56
  thought Kelly kind of showed her cards.
• 3:59
  She said, yeah, we're 30 million short too.
• 4:02
  For what? So it sounds to me like Kelly
• 4:07
  Earnhardt and Dale Junior are looking at starting a cup team
• 4:11
  because she said we're 30 million short too.
• 4:14
  Well, she says we're short. That means they're looking at
• 4:17
  starting a cup team, which in reality, I mean it it it's like
• 4:23
  they need to, right? There's all types of money
• 4:26
  around them, but I I don't know if they want to work that hard.
• 4:29
  Does Dale Junior and Kelly want to work that hard?
• 4:32
  Don't they got a really good life going on right now.
• 4:36
  You sure you want to start a cup team?
• 4:39
  There goes your free time. But anyway, respond right here.
• 4:45
  How much is a franchise worth? Is it worth 10 million?
• 4:51
  Because there are a lot of teams that are going to buy one of
• 4:53
  these franchises. Hey, listen, this is not the end
• 4:56
  of NASCAR. This is 4 new teams starting up
• 5:01
  because everybody wants them and they're going to be sold.
• 5:05
  So don't act like we're going to be short.
• 5:09
  There are a lot of teams that are going to buy these.
• 5:12
  But but what I'm making, what does coffee with Kenny's all
• 5:16
  about? What are they going to be worth?
• 5:20
  I'm going to say 20 million each.
• 5:23
  Respond right here. I said it.
• 5:25
  I don't. I think 40 million is way too
• 5:27
  much. That's a lot of damn money.
• 5:30
  However. Can't can't you imagine it?
• 5:34
  It's like going to Walmart, buying a shirt and then finding
• 5:37
  it cheaper at Target. Who's the first one to buy?
• 5:40
  Buy the franchise, Right? So I'm Joe Don.
• 5:44
  OK, let's, let's, let's, let's do it real.
• 5:47
  Let's say I'm Denny Hamlin and I'm Michael Jordan and I buy the
• 5:50
  first one for 25,000,000. Then all of a sudden somebody, I
• 5:58
  mean, I guess they could not sell them, but then they would
• 6:01
  go back to NASCAR, right? Because you, you don't, you
• 6:04
  don't keep you, you can't, you can't, you can't strangle
• 6:10
  NASCAR. These these are starting spots.
• 6:14
  So what happens if they sell the first one for 25, then the
• 6:18
  second one goes for 20, then the next one goes for 15 all the way
• 6:23
  to 10? It's going to be interesting
• 6:25
  since they have 4 for sale. How do you go about that, right?
• 6:28
  Respond right here. Do you sell them all four at the
• 6:31
  same time? That would be better.
• 6:35
  Is Honda coming in? Is Honda going to get with the
• 6:39
  team and say let's buy all these up real quick?
• 6:41
  That's a juicy one. Is Honda coming in?
• 6:44
  Will Honda buy them all? Whoa, boy.
• 6:48
  All right. Well, I think it's going to be
• 6:50
  really interesting. Respond right here, Subscribe
• 6:54
  right here. And man, oh, man, I tell you
• 6:58
  what, I really like Kevin Harvick's response on this whole
• 7:02
  deal. It was kind of cliche us Harvick
• 7:06
  been there what, like 10 / 10 years?
• 7:11
  Harvick said. We went forever to for the win
• 7:15
  and for sale. That was pretty good.
• 7:20
  He said that on the Happy Harvick podcast.
• 7:24
  Don't you know Harvick all his way to the studio, he's thinking
• 7:27
  how what am I going to say? Kevin Harvick Stewart House
• 7:32
  Racing, we went for we went from the number four forever two for
• 7:40
  the wind 2 for sale. But listen, I I really think
• 7:46
  that this listen, it's not even June yet and everybody knows
• 7:51
  that and I know that every one of those people are going to
• 7:54
  land on their feet. Hell, someone might come in and
• 7:56
  buy the whole damn building and say everybody just stay there,
• 7:59
  just stay right there. Wouldn't that be something?
• 8:02
  But like Todd Gordon said on SiriusXM radio is, listen, we
• 8:07
  don't need half the stuff we used to have because now these
• 8:11
  cars, you just bolt them together.
• 8:13
  You're hardly, you might need two surface plates or you might
• 8:16
  need a surface plate per car to set your chassis up on.
• 8:20
  But nowadays you don't build cars, you just bolt them
• 8:23
  together. So you don't need these big
• 8:25
  fabrication shops. So the, the, the moral of the
• 8:29
  story is the Stewart Haas shop geared up.
• 8:33
  I'm I mean, I know it's geared up, but do you need all the
• 8:36
  space now since you just buy this next Gen. car and bolted
• 8:39
  together? All right, that's my my
• 8:43
  afterthoughts of of the the the tough day for Stewart Haas
• 8:48
  racing. All right, remember to please
• 8:51
