Robby also said he had a top 5 car in race trim during practice. He had one qual. run, but was blocked by a car on it's cool down lap. He also said the car will be at every race this year, but may not run all the laps.

Good news on sponsorship for next year. It sucks that he was left holding worthless (BAM) contracts this year.

Since I recently had to take a refresher course on dealing with difficult people, I thought I would share this excerpt from one of the handouts.

And as always looking forward to qualifying and the race on Sunday.

Gas On Robby & PJ!

The complainers are people who find whining a better ritual than being discreet and diplomatic. They complain about anything and just like the chatterbox, they are bothersome.

Another type of difficult co-worker is the negativist. Much like complainers, they are pessimistic about things. They can even put other colleagues down with their cynical attitude.
