So, they need to wait until they're locked in before they start working on things?

Funny, I thought they were locked in for the first five races this year. So they are working on things, right?

1. As stated, the #7 never dropped out last year

2. Things can easily get worse if you are hoping for the #7 to start every Cup event this year. Constantly one of the four/five slowest cars in race trim or qualifying trim or practice or during race and they're barely hanging onto a locked in top 35 spot right now. If the #7 were a go or go home car, Casey Mears would be making races right now. So yes, they absolutely can get worse.

Sunday's race is crucial , because the probability of a banged up car at Bristol is very high ( it's Bristol afterall .. I dont need to tell you what can easily happen there )

Yup. Things at Bristol that are beyond anyone's control could happen to take out great cars.

A solid run somewhere in the 20s would be great for Sunday.

Hope they put the other two spark plugs in the TRIAD for Saturday practice.
