He is hoping to get into some R&D or possibly getting into the CTS which has an easier schedule. |
Heard the interview on SIRIUS's Morning Drive Friday morning. VERY GOOD interview.
He did say he wanted to involve himself more in his community, both family and church. He said he has two very young children whom he wishes to see grow up. He alluded to the fact that he knows that there is more to life than NASCAR. Another interesting thing he said was something to the affect that he wanted to be home for his kid and to not have the problems some other NASCAR personnel have had?
He indicated that a CC spot on a CTS team wasn't out of the question. He was asked about Cup Lite and he said that series was as hectic and time consuming as Cup itself.
He sounded very humble and very up front in the interview. I gained a lot of respect for Fatback in the piece. I wish him well.
