My opinion is that Rob needs to go for it in the duel. Why? Because he needs to show everyone that the car is fast and that he can be a good draft partner on Sunday. Right now practice says the car is slow, qual says the car is slow, as far as everyone is concerned if he doesn't show something on Thurs then he'll be ignored on Sunday. Run strong and run strong PUSHING on Thursday. This will guarantee that you have friends on Sunday.

Looking at the 92's speeds, he would be better off trying to push his motor coach to the front!

@ Mark Allen...

EXACTLY! Don't matter how good your moves are if nobody will dance with you.

If Denny Hamlin is smart, he will push Robby to the front. I'm sure Denny will leave Robby and swap partners once he gets up front. I'm sure Robby is looking at who's around him and already having discussions with potential partners. It's like Kurt Busch said, "This will be a different racing style. You have to have a partner or you have no chance. If you don't have a partner, you'll get lapped quick."

You make it sound like he's done this before. Doesn't he need all the help he can get?
