@dastexan, by reasonable as in he already was ahead of 5 people when he ran the 77, which is usually even better than a usual qual. run. Clearly you missed the "it was rained out" part. Unless you are trying to be sarcastic, when then I say keep your day job.

Take it easy TOG, GD, some folks get excited about Rob racing and are let down when he isnt in the show. Crying seems like a stretch..

The crying gets old. I'm sure RG is clad everyone cares, but HE is in charge, but people bitch about everything. He hasn't called me for advice, and I have nothing to offer except support.

You all could cheer for the waltrip brothers, they are exciting........right, they will tell you how awesome they are

I'm sticking with whatever in the hell he decides to do PERIOD

Money "DOES" grow on trees. I've seen it. I've been there. I climbed up and picked all I wanted. I was pretty wrecked at the time and can't remember where it was but I saw it, I had all I wanted. The tree had two real nice legs (like trunks) two evenly lengthened arms (like limbs) drove a jag treated me nice for two days but I got too high and fell out. But I swear it was a tree and money grew on it. I mean at least I saw it that way, but in the end never get involved with your boss............

Me have a boss HA Ha.....................Gas on 7 when ever and what ever.
Never trust W____N or the weather.

As far as NAZICAR goes there was talk a while back about moving qualifying up or back if weather was a potential drawback or avoidable circumstance. Blah Blah Blah about fans and TV. Not many fans at all sit in the seats to watch qualifying. And if they are they are watching and listening ...they would know there is time. TV my ars Tape delay "the speed channel", I mean honestly (I don't know) how many drivers have any amount of fans that watch with any intensity about qualifying. the only thing that ever made qualifying any kind of spectacle is (was) the new endless (and mindless) cable TV world. Which is dead and buried through over exposure. I mean okay I get it, the nation needs 24 hours of 2400 channels because it does not have a job to go to. I can taste the blood draining from each microscopic wound the world is suffering from but hell man, Move Qualifying when you have 10 teams that came 1000 miles (or whatever) to try and race. I can get things done when I have the chance i'd be on my first pencil from birth if they'd only let me try an.........................

Yup, this Parrot thing could end up well. out of the past few CCs he prob has the most experience with the COT.
Then again, he might just be a spy hired to find out why Robbys is so awesome or he wants the secret recipe to SPEED, but its locked in the vault behind the wall....(ok, sponge bob reference)
