Anyone else hear during the Pit Crew Challenge on SPEED, that a crew member from RCR's 29 team was a substitue for the challenge because the actual member left recently to go to Robby Gordon Motorsports? Broadcasters mentioned it in the first round of the competition. I wasn't really paying attention until I heard RGM mentioned..........

Did I hear right? If so, who is it?

I thought I heard them say it was Kirk Almquist's brother... But same as you I wasn't paying close attention.
As car chief
I guess Kirk is sticking around for a while then. Good news.
i like kirk. i hope hes planning for the long run
Me too!
Contrary to what folks might hear on the scanner sometimes, Kirk and RG get along real well and see eye to eye on many things.
One thing I can tell listening.....while they may not always see "eye to eye"...I can tell that Robby definatley respects Kirk's abiltiy....really been a nice change of pace and Robby's car's have been a world better this year
I also like how Kirk will take control when Robby starts to go over the edge, like chasing the 44 around last week at Darlington, and he is also not afraid to disagree with Rub's on changes to make to the car..
Definitely and how RG will listen and not overrule Kirk's suggestions, sometimes anyway. Which is a big improvement, like was said earlier "respect".
sucks for him as he just missed out on an easy 10 grand...
kirk sounds young.

keeping RGs head on straight can be tough, but they comunicate well and you can hear the respect from one another
Wasn't there some off road connection between Kirk and Robby?
