But I dont think they are going to be running the 500 1 car at a time. I think Robby will be fine!

Problem is Robby often does find himself running alone, usually due to a pit stop, and if he doesn't have speed it can put him in a hole early.

sorry but, that's just all wrong. NOBODY can keep up by himself. They are running 185 alone and 200 in pairs. RG's speed today has NOTHING to do with how he will race.

I'm talking about coming out a few car lengths back and not keeping up with the car in front of him. There have been numerous times he pits with a group, comes out in the back and loses it. No question he can drive and keep up when he is in the pack.
