the time is now to do something drastic... buy some good stuff from red bull or gibbs..... or be hard headed and honorary.. that will keep you in the back, and missing races...

What, he qualified 44th?? I don't get it, I don't remember Robby qualifying that bad over the past few years. Is he giving up since he isn't racing the full year. After all the talk of top 5 finishes it makes me wonder if he's really motivated about being competitive or he's going to drive a few reaces this year and walk away .... Damn, it's hard to root for Robby in Nascar. It's tough to get more sponsors when you always start from the back, good thing for the good old boys top 35 deal!!

according to nascar on the xbox, you have to hit the L1 and r1 buttons to get super grip handling. Maybe robby didnt hit those on his ~~controller~~ steering wheel during qualifying?

I agree blitz. The setup of the COT has been difficult. Wasn't this car supposed to control costs and help the little guy? I wish they would dump this car and go back to a car based on showroom specs. I love watching the British and German touring class racing on Speed. A series where a Benz looks like a Benz and a Ford looks like a Ford.
