What About Tony Stewart? Is He Done Too?

Tony Stewart is a bit different from Carl Edwards in that Edwards left racing to do other things. Stewart left NASCAR so that he could race in other places. The 2017 racing season has not begin yet and Stewart already has more than 70 events on his schedule and that number will continue to grow.

Will we see Stewart in the Cup Series in 2017? I highly doubt it unless a spot in the Daytona 500 opens up in the next couple of weeks.

Will we see him in NASCAR in 2017? Well, if we do my guess would be when the trucks go to Eldora. Stewart obviously has a connection to Eldora, and he loves racing on dirt and the NASCAR fans would love to see him in that event. So, if there is a way for Stewart to get himself into the race, I think we see Stewart in the NASCAR Truck Series this season.
