These F1 cars Robby is running aren't near as good as his old Cup cars, maybe we should revert back.

Hi everyone. I never comment on this board but I do read your comments. I'm sad that Robby cannot do well in the Cup series. But let's face it, he doesn't have the resources to acquire a second team and that's the killer. Had he had that after he left RCR, he would have done a credible job. But dividing time and resources between off road, track, and other endeavors, has insured failure somewhere along the line. And the Cup series is it because it simply costs too much time and money. Plus, he just may be getting a tad too old to multi-task like he has done all his life. He will likely be 35th or lower at the end of this day and next week is Bristol. He may have to rethink his plans for this season because having to race his way into the show is one thing he has never learned to do well.

he isnt re-thinkng anything. He will put last week behind him and go on to the next race. Thats all you can do.And deal with the top 35 when the time comes, and reach down and man up if and when he has to make it on time.

Unfortunate that may just be the problem forget last week get ready for the next it hasn't been working, I don't think dwelling will help of course, but something has to change somewhere, RG gives 200% and again is sitting near the end, and that has to be the most hart breaking feeling for the whole team, they have changed CC, pit crew, cars what is left? I wish RG all the best that thing will get better I just don't see what else can be changed to make him competitive again. still and always will be a fan.
