Tell me that it isn't true

Is this what the rest of the season is going to be looking like for RG? I am hoping not but I can only assume the money has run out to put the car in full time...please help me out with this? As I am a true diehard RG fan I will be disappointed. But hopefully he will be moving on to bigger and better things...

either these "fans" suffer from short term memory loss, didn't pay attention in class or weren't around at the beginning of the season. It's all good with me. We see him race when we can that's life.

If I recall, the 78 team backed off to a part-time schedule a few years ago to get its house in order.

I've come to the conclusion there a folks that drop in occasionally and only read what ever page they open, and if all there questions aren't answer'd on that one page they feel dis'd. Information is posted all the time,things change half daily.
Robby stated before the "CUP" season started RGM was only running part time.Robby was going to run the first 5 than run the fun races.Dover is not one of Robby's fun tracks or events.Yet, we know the car will be there to start the race.Ever changing,when you are self sponsoring you can do what ever you want,not a predetermined schedule.

I'm REALLY glad I skipped the chat last night - I'm sure it was miserable. Robby does things his way, we are all just a long for the ride. Take it for what it is.

The NASCAR venues are a great place for RG to showcase the Speed Energy brand. So to me it only makes sense that he tries to attend the majority of the races even if it become a start and park event. None of us here knows the financial position that RGM has and with all that has been going on in the economy we should be happy that he is still around. At the moment it might be called survival mode...

Also, this "lull" in the NASCAR side of the business may give them more resources to focus on the trophy truck or Dakar Rally - more great venues to bring the Speed Energy brand to.

My family has met RG and Bob Gordon on numerous occasions and they always treat you openly and give you lots of time and for that we will maintain our interest in whatever they do.
