The fact that they did sounds like the #07 was going to run the entire race.

Horrible horrible weekend.

Pj ran what he was supposed to , but you can assume whatever you want.

If they're using RG's backup car, that should be ready to go when it's loaded. More or less anyway.

I understand what you are getting at, and the answer is no.I have the justification as to why, but I need to re-write it so where it is not confusing.That would be a great speedfactory segment,and you gave me an idea.

5-6k to enter,thats after you have all the appropriate licenses, really thats the lite side of the expenses for a given weekend, travel expense,tire bill,crew. Robby probably lost money this week end.IMO

Do they have to register an over-the-wall pit crew as well?

absolutely! Any one that goes over the wall has to have a license/hard card and fire suit.Ever wonder why Delania wears a fire suit?

We need to get some of that incar of Robby, when he was talking about thinking he broke his hand. My son and I watched that thing jump out of 4th under load holy crap........

Sheer disappointment, but I'd still rather be following #7 and #07 than supporting those Front Row Motorsports car swappers. And regardless of the result today, Robby still has more talent than almost anyone else out there. Just fingers crossed that deals for 2011 can be pulled together and that he is at Daytona with a locked in car.
