This was always going to happen. It's a real shame but it's not like the sky is going to fall down!! It's taken me a long time to realise this but it only makes sense that teams like Robbys are going to really struggle in all forms of motor racing.
What he's done is punch above his weight and rattle the cage of some people that he shouldn't have got any where near. I am proud of what he's done over the last 5 years. I'm only sorry it's taken me this long to figure it out.
The F1 is going to be great this weekend btw.

its martinsville. For any RG fan to slit their wrists over him DNQing a second entry is just plain stupid. He was fast enough in practice, but we didnt get to see his Q lap on TV . One little slip on a Mville Q lap is all it takes to go home. Bummed, but now KC needs to beat the cars he needs to beat on Sunday.

calling an audible by having Robby try to Q in was a good plan.The 38 made the race. Keeping your nose clean is way more important than driving over your head.It's easy to have problems at Martinsville.
