Yeah, but just think, during the race, each position he gains, it'll give us something to celebrate. All those guys up front, boring...P7to P4to P5to p3to p1, boring!

Can I change my mind on the Penske DEI thing? I definitely think DEI is the place to be. Penske looked far from perfect today across the board...and no Dodge excuses....GEM and Ganassi were a ton better.

Robby's been very lucky to be locked in the top 35 ,as cars around him have bombed at the same time as him. then again,there is a reason they are all back there to begin with.Robby needs to stop making predictions and just shut up and drive.

Everytime RG makes a prediction he chokes hard. Maybe RG needs to say things like "We are really this bad!" or "We dont have a prayer to finish in the top 10." Maybe then RG's luck will turn around.
Well, he makes over the top predictions nearly every week. Its just absurd. Yeah, drivers damn well better believe that they can win, or else they shouldn't be out there. But that also has to be balanced with honest assessments of the teams position.
You can't fix things if you believe nothing is wrong....

Well RG got more breathing room for the top 35 next week at Talladega. The 00 car failed to make the race. That means only one car can move past Robby before Talledega, and thats the 77 car; but he has a 78 point cushion on Hornish. Talladega is the track I have the biggest fear about qualifying for while not in the top 35.
Yes the car sucked in qualifying, but lets look at the semi bright side shall we?

The closest car for the 35th spot didnt make the race. So he should remain in the top 35 for qualifying at Talladega, meaning he doesnt have to change the proven setup on the car just to make the race. Thats the bright side.
Nice attitude, go root for someone else if you dont like it. No one has a gun to your head to support RGM.
