Sucks for Robby, but Bristol sucks anyway. If he had made the race he would have likely been collected in someone else's mess and trashed a perfectly fine chassis. I know it's big money to make these races, but I wish he'd just leave that boring, redneck racing for good.

Well I don't agree with your opinion of boring redneck racing (and that's just my opinion) but do agree with you that it could be a lot worst.
The races themselves aren't as boring as the coverage of the races make them to be.

re-watching the end of practice , it looked like there were at least 5 techs in blue collared shirts ( perhaps Mclaren / EFI ??) around Robbys car.

The McLaren guys looked at it for an hour and a half and still could not figure out why it wouldn't fire ?

I remember the old days when either your didn't have spark, or you didn't have fuel. Although high-tech in their components, these engines are also supposed to be fairly basic in their make-up, so you really gotta wonder...

Edit : If everyone has the same box, you gotta wonder why Dodge has all the problems. Something in particular about the Dodge engines themselves causes the boxes to fry ? I suppose I can see where McLaren might be confused, as I suspect all the Dodge team(s) are confused.

It shouldn't be rocket science to figure out what the problem is. One would think these boxes would have been built with a bit more robustness to them...

I had a Dodge Powerwagon and it wouldn't start everyone I knew for 3 hrs took a shot at diagnosis. Turned out to be a porcelin balast resister. On a good note just went to my local SPEED E nergy outlet and the clerk presented me with a couple of SPEED decals and a couple oof 6 in. orange slashes that my SPEED DISTRIBUTOR had left for me . Probably because I am so cool and such a good customer. lol
