NASCAR’s in the midst of a retirement crisis.

Dale Earnhardt Jr., Danica Patrick, Matt Kenseth, Jeff Gordon and Tony Stewart are just a few of the drivers that have retired in recent years. But when will the bleeding stop?

Not any time soon, if you ask Earnhardt.

SiriusXM NASCAR Radio on Friday tweeted a question asking fans for bold predictions for the 2018 season. And Earnhardt, an ever-active tweeter, decided to contribute his two cents.

What do you think?  Leave a comment.

So, could Kurt Busch really retire next year?

Well, the 2004 Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series champion and 2017 Daytona 500 winner will enter the 2018 season on a one-year deal with Stewart-Haas Racing, so it’s not like his future is particularly set.

As for the other “capable veteran” Earnhardt alluded to, your guess is as good as ours.
