I just watched his video..... He says they can go out an kick miss gieco's.. Then says it is frustrating watching them out there with unlimited funds......... If you are able to kick the ass of a team that has unlimited funds, why is that frustrating? I have read his posts here on OSO, and now seeing him whine on that video.... Just seems to confirm what has been said about him in the past.... Quite whining!

Found this on another web page promoting JBS, was curious about your question and googled JBS Racing.
Trust fund baby...good work if you can get it!

Somebody once said. "How do you small a small fortune in racing?........................................... ..........Start out with a large fortune"!

Only a fool races with his own money. This guy has a golden opportunity to go after sponsorship money. Heck, the first guys I'd go after would be Geico's competition: State Farm, Allstate, Progressive, etc. They all spend a ton of money advertising and why let Geico dominate the market?

Maybe he has and just doesn't have a clue how to go about it. If what people are saying is true, he's a d-bag, then no wonder he can't get sponsors. What he needs to do is hire a marketing guy to promote the team and get the $.

Just my $0.02.

Don't know the guy. Only know what I read here. Seems to be a lot of know it alls with negative feelings and are ready to jump on him first chance they get. Yes he has said things a professional would not but it's over and should be put to rest.
JMO..
I wouldn't mind having his resources though and I'm sure I'm not the only one...
