Mike you just don't get it....we are all RG fans....some agree with everything that comes out of the shop and like polishing turds (wink wink)...others look at the situation objectively and question some decisions. Robby himself said his current situation isn't working....so time to change things up...S&Ping or running in the back may keep the lights on at the shop but it won't sell speed.

So, No ? you've never had a race team.And have no idea as the expense's and lack of profit margin(money loser)
Do you remember Robby saying he won't go broke -racing?

How can a person question the business decisons being made by Robby when the person doing the questioning isn't privied to all the moving parts and pieces associated with said decision...

Well you can question it, but then to tell somebody else they don't get in, when in fact you are basing what you are saying on assumptions is kind of comical in itself.

I personally think Robby will sell as many cans of speed today as he would have if he would have finished 5th............

And what if he finished 1st TIM? And my u don't get it comment wasnt me saying I have all the answers or all the information.....it was that it should be ok for other fans to have opinions....educated opinions and not to be torn to pieces which is what I see happen a lot on this board. TOG is the only one I would expect to defend every RGM move based on his relationship.....the rest of us should be fans who just want to see RG win......my last comment.

Thank you for your "last comment."

have to sell a lot of Speed to generate $100K for the Penske motor and the $10K in tires Lots of tore up cars too.

Ollie's got there moneys worth last night, I looked up there site It was down for some reason lol

Sometimes the site going done doesn't mean money coming in, Just a bigger BW bill.

It's called exposure !!! After all the cars are just billboards

You gotta love all of you Tuesday morning Crew Chiefs who come out of the woodwork who aren't responsible for paying the bills. Maybe if they opened their wallets and 401k's, started their own race teams, and saw $$$ leaving their bank accounts they would understand. It's super easy to spend someone else's money, though. Sure, running the race like Blaney might have been worth $50-100k in advertising. But if you spend $250k to do that, there's not much fiscal sense there.It takes money to make money and if you don't have money, there's not a lot you can do except for soldier on. I don't get what is so hard to understand about that.
