basically Robby only had 20 minutes in the first practice and then and hour for HH. Throw in adjustments made to a new chasis and you have the reason for few laps run.

The problem that I have (and I am not trying to be negative just realistic) is that it seems like they would accidentally fall on a good setup once in a while. I think that is what bothers me the most. They have had NO real good runs this year. I don't understand how you can be off so far every single week at every single track. A blind hog finds an acorn every once in a while.
