I guess NA$¢AR didn't want Flash to run in the non-NA$¢AR-affiliated Race of Champions (not to be confused with the NA$¢AR-affiliated, NA$¢AR-style, NA$¢AR-track-only, NA$¢AR-dominated IROC).

While I'm here, the latest dose of Jayski -

• Todd Parrott found a home at the #43 as crew chief.
• Mikey will get the majority of the crew from the #22 (I wouldn't be surprised if the #55 gets the owners' points too).
• More TV rumors; it's allegedly an 8-year deal, Fox/FX gets the first half of the Cup season, TNT gets a few races in the middle, ESPN/ABC gets the last part including the Chase, ESPN2 gets the whole Busch schedule, and Rusty will be somewhere on TV.
• More #77/Kodak rumors (Will they stay or will they go? Will they run or will they...ahem!)
• Texas Terry will not run the Bud Shootout, at least not in the #96 HOF Racing Chevy.
• The National SprintCar League is done.
• Speaking of the Race of Champions, Flash and the rest of Team USA lost to eventual champ Team Scandinavia in the semis of the head-to-head competition after Flash single-handedly knocked out Team Brazil.
