Also I would not be surprised if Tony Stewart Racing gets parts and pieces from Don Schumacher Racing.

If all that happens I can see Leah staying in the seat of the Challenger.

Pure speculation on my part but I will be staying tuned for future announcements.

Leah just posted this on Facebook....

"After four year of competing in Factory Stock Showdown, today’s raceday will be my last drive aboard the DSR-prepared 2021 Dodge Challenger Mopar Drag Pak in competition.

I’ve had the most amazing and educating experience working with Dodge, SRT and Mopar on two generations of Challenger Drag Paks. We won the 2018 Factory Stock Showdown championship with the third generation Drag Pak and was blessed to be immersed in the development and launch of the 2021 Dodge Challenger Mopar Drag Pak. I’d love to finish this experience off with a win. Make that a double up win."

As long as Kevin lands a good spot I’m comfortable with that.

Even if they sell Leah's car he will still have the Pawuk and Davies cars to tune.

Bill, with Watson Racing going to Dodge I’m a bit skeptical that DSR will be involved any longer but sure hope you’re right.

Jim,

Will Watson have any role other than just building the 2021 Drag Paks?

Have no clue how FS (and the new FX class) is impacted by DSR changes (Capps leaving DSR the latest ‘shoe’ to drop) and Watson Racing’s full role but was definitely glad to hear that Turk is having B&B prep a FX car so things are looking good for Dodge. Even if you cheer for the other brands competition is always a good thing. Anxious to hear where Kevin lands in all this. Hope it’s a great fit for him and his family, especially since NONE of us want to see him racing in a Class car on a regular basis LOL.

Only says last race aboard the "DSR-prepared Dodge", doesn't say she won't be in another Factory stock Dodge or other make.

Don Schumacher Racing posted this on Facebook:

"After four years of competing in the Constant Aviation Factory Stock Showdown series, double-duty driver Leah Pruett closed out her FSS career with a runner-up performance – her third of the year – and a third place finish in the category"

Sounds like she is done with Factory Stock.
