RG is what he is. On Plate Tracks and Roadies he can be competitive but other than that he is just a bit better than the S&P's. Sorry to be honest but sometimes you have to call it what it is. Still a fan but also a realist....

It woun't matter how much money he has,,, hell with 2 crew chiefs they still run out of gas,,,,, or try to run over 100 laps at Bristol without changing tires!!!!! Robby needs to get a crew chief he respects and let him do his job and LISTEN TO HIM!!!!! He needs to drive his car,, like I know he can,,, and let the crew chief ,, one that is capeable,,, do their job!!! Cant do it all!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

and what does that 'Magic' crew chief cost? Speed Energy is a self-sponsorship deal,so where does the big funding come from?

A good crew chief would cost alot less than crashing cars with 100 laps on their tires,, or loosing 10 positions because of running out of gas!!!!!! He would more than pay for himself in the difference in prize money and not crashing cars!!!!

I hope Robby doesn't fall asleep and hit the wall! I feel bad for anyone who bought a ticket and traveled to watch this race!

RG is what he is - accept and take what good comes along when it happens.

Robby doesn't have enough money to effectively run three venues, and that is the likely cause of doing poorly in all of them this season. After this race, he may be the go or go home category. But I suppose he is to be commended for traveling his own path in life whether or not it brings him fame and fortune.
