When is it OK to switch drivers

[gumbo]

I began watching nascar 30+ years ago. Went to the 25th anniversary Daytona and have been to Dega 4 times, Bristol, ATL, NHIS, Pocono.

Way back I was a Swirvin Irvan fan - then he stopped racing and I was a fan of old #3, Then #8....

During race season I listen to Sirius nascar after every race to hear all the chatter of this guy that guy blah blah. To be honest by the end of last season I didn't care who won the races or the Cup.

During the off season I tossed my 3 #8 shirts into salvation army bin with some other clothes I no longer liked...

I thought of jumping into new Jr garb but have never been a Hendricks fan - everyone there is to damn polished and PC all the time.

Then there was a flash this winter when I said the hell with it - I'm not even gonna be a fan of this mass appeal "entertainment package" nascar has become.

then during the week leading up to this weekends Bud Shootout I had thoughts of new beginings as a Stewart fan....

Then Jr goes and gives me some hope Saturday night

So back to the topic - when is it "OK" to switch drivers......
