In the FWIW Department....

That was a TRD motor that won the pole and the race.

From the interveiw footage on Robby's site, you can hear how proud he is that they are building their own cars. The down side is that their methodology appears to be trail and error.

But the important thing is, how is Robby now after the CO issue? No one is answering that question or discussing it. That should be the focus. Secondly, NASCAR needs to make a COT change so that the cooling boxes don't suck CO and exhaust into the drivers helmet. In my opinion, outside input venting is needed else you could end up with a really big wreck.
