Probably a good thing so he can junk the old cars and start building some new and better ones.

today's wreck only cost him around 21 pts and a wrecked car, at least he was not on the lead lap and running well.

I noticed he was up to 21st at one point, guess that was before the blown tire.

yes that is true. Robby was knocking the othe cars down quickly before the blown tire.

Maybe Robby is just banking all his luck now, and will cash it in during both Baja's and Dakar...........

Today was a shame...Robby was the victim of a bad situation. His car was running better than I have seen in a long time; and I was impressed watching him advance from 40th to 26th inside of 30 laps. He ran all day with the leaders, but due to the tire that went down early and that dammed caution we ended up 2 down battling all day...racing Jeff Gordon who half the time we were not near or he would have been behind Robby. Jeff actually asked who he was racing today and when they responded Robby...he said "oh great that makes me feel better" what a jerk! I hope that Doug will stay on with the team, he is a great addition and we will only continue to run better with another experienced brain on the job. It is just a matter of time before RG wins on a oval as well as a road course. Maybe then he will get some of the respect he so deserves.

Jeff sounded too good to be at the back of the pack

I watched the Direct TV Hotpass in car with Jeff all day. Mainly so that I could watch Robby out the windshield (you could watch him passing others for a long time) until the cautions and pit stops separated them and the crew put Jeff out ahead of Robby, with the traffic and such Robby was not in the right position to pass him for the position. I have no doubt he could have since Robby was certainly better than them today, which is obviously not always the case. He was making up ground when he crashed.
