Two teams could be missing from Phoenix: on SPEEDtv's SPEED Report, Bob Dilner reported that two Sprint Cup teams could be missing at Phoenix on the weekend on April 17-18th. #8-Aric Almirola [the team plans to meet about the future of the #8 on Tuesday, Aprl 7th] and the #71 TRG Motorsports team that David Gilliland drives. Gilliand said the team needs a sponsor to continue on.(4-6-2009

Yup..knew the 8 was out of sponsorship, didnt realize the #71 was calling it quits possibly.

If so, then thats 117 pt cushion over Speed

the top 35 isn't even going to matter. Robbys team is a far better team than it shows, and things will all come together real soon.Robby knows his stuff is good.

whatever TOG....the team might be good and equipment is good and better than the top 35 but the bottom line is no matter how you slice it they are flirting with the top 35 be it bad luck or whatever but to say it isn't even going to matter is a stretch

Robby isn't worried, so no need for you to. Top 35 won't matter,because he will be ok. But I will tell you what, I will let you be the official sky is falling RG fan.fair enough?

He will have a bullet-proof motor for Phoenix,no doubt.

Well, for what it's worth I was REALLY happy with how he was doing. He had a great car. Just a shame that the motor went bang but what a good finish he was heading to.
Had the best of all the RCR cars other than Burton and I feel sure he would have beat the # 33 if he could have raced him.
Real shame to have an engine let go, but he's still in the Owners points and cars like that will move away from trouble. Keep it up Robby.
