There is no Hoffman 69 car.....the team has belonged to Brady sice before I partnered in with him. He kept the colors and number and listed them as owners because he is friends with them and wanted to carry on the tradition.

The team belongs to Brady and I own the engines.....you need to study up on the facts.......I am surprised at all the inner working of our team that have been posted by people who have nothing to do with our team.....fascinating

Thanks for the clarification, Gene. Unfortunately many here know so much more than anyone else, they may not believe you. If you're going along with Brady I understand that completely.

I don't understand why some here think these departures don't have a negative impact or connotation for the sanctioning body. Best of luck to Bacon and his team.

Gene, I always appreciate being told the truth other than trying to piece what is actually happening together. Deception was never my intent and I mentioned Brady has the cars shop, hauler and mechanic and you were the engine guy.

When Richard and Chip got out. They teamed with Chad B for a year, I do know some equipment was swapped or lent to do the USAC tour. Then KTJ then back to Brady. I said in my post all along that I had no real knowledge of the relationship.

Rob still has race cars and has raced the last three Little 500s Two with cars he built from scratch and the current one with a Beast, so there is still a HAR and I know he could use some sponsors just to help that cause.

Always loved the fact that you helped teams. I don't think a couple teams would have existed without it. Thank you.

So this is Blah, Blah, Blah, blah to infinity and beyond. Gene just lowered the boom on the Hoffman car Its basically a NIL only car (name, image, and likeness). So my question is how far does this go back and why should his wins go down in the books as a Hoffman team win? Shouldn't there be an * in the record books under thier team wins. That’s just

No Blah too it. If it's the name on the entry list. Brady's had almost half a dozen teams out of his shop at one point or another, In fact the last Oval Nationals win he had was in the 98 (Which he ran Xtreme and other races with_. Go back and watch. It's a blue chassis.

If anything, It's a honor to HAR and everyone else who supports Him. He always gives them the credit they deserve and that's all that matters. Tons of Work, People, Time and money goes into making that team(S) work.

Always someone out they trying to tear down Success. Blah to that.
