With this qualifying effort it makes the chances for a win VERY slim, without a lucky/timely caution.

Too many extremely talented road racers and talented Cup teams in front of him....I expect JPM, Marcos and the Busch brothers to be on top all day....

So again, a top five would be six shades of awesome at this point for RG, and I don't expect PJ to finish in the top 40...

Didn't RGM have transmission issues on both cars at different points today?

He could just back off and wait for the others going in 3-4 wide to wreck each other!!

Yeah, that sounds right. He'll back off....

Yeah, I was thinking Daytona strategy. Hang in back, get better fuel mileage, wait for "the big ones", then make your move.

kidding.

YES!!!! Both cars are in the show. If PJ can take out 40 cars and RG take out Stremme...we could have a 1-2 day. This is going to be a very good weekend!

This is a STRONG Nationwide car. Robby is going to have a very great chance at winning the pole with the session qualifying.
