Off-week??

Does anyone have any idea how Robby is enjoying his last "off" week until the end of August.. which might not be an off weekend after all if Robby races the Nationwide race in Montreal? If Robby races Montreal, this weekend will be his last off weekend until after the Baja 1000 in November. Of course, then it will be all about getting ready for the Dakar.. talk about iron man!! No wonder Robby is the Official racer of racing!!

I would spend in on Lake Norman but knowing him he's probably racing somewhere. As for Montreal, please, please, please race Robby.

I can not imagine the NAPA 200 at Montreal without Robby. Montreal is my home race, and I very sad about there only 4 Cup drivers: Busch, Edwards, Ambrose and Menard.

I think because Montreal is such a unique track that the Cup series doesn't visit it would be interesting to see how some of the Cup guys would do there. But I agree with you that there should be a limit to how many Cup regulars can run in a Nationwide event. But that will never happen as the promotion of Cup guys racing Nationwide events sells tickets, and NASCAR is all about the $$.

I agree that there are too many Cup drivers in Nationwide but there is a big difference with Robby. He owns his own team. Kyle Busch, Edwards and most of those guys just get a car handed to them and don't do any of the hard work to get there.

I dont think that is the issue, its the quality of his team....would it be ok if Tony S. raced there with his equipment? Im with you, but he still is a Cup driver.

I just saw where Jacques Villeneuve is going to race again in that race. Does that make it any better?

Also, Patrick Carpentier is supposed to be racing there.

Did Robby's appeal for the Baja 500 ever get rejected yet? He could work on getting his win back this off week.

Is Robby racing his N.W. car at the glen? You would think he would race the Glen and Montreal. When are the N.W. car going to a C.O.T. style of car? Dam I got alot of questions.
