Comments on: Dale Jr says he’s not out of it yet http://autoracingsport.com/nascar/dale-jr-says-hes-not-out-of-it-yet/ The place for NASCAR news and rumors where the discussion rages... Fri, 09 Jan 2009 07:15:58 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.6.5 By: Guy http://autoracingsport.com/nascar/dale-jr-says-hes-not-out-of-it-yet/#comment-22137 Guy Sat, 18 Aug 2007 18:04:02 +0000 http://autoracingsport.com/nascar/dale-jr-says-hes-not-out-of-it-yet/#comment-22137 When you put the engines into perspective....there's seven cars on the track that run DEI/RCR motors, and most of the failures are limited to one or two. It's an experiment, they're gathering notes and information, so it's safe to say that not every engine is going to be exactly the same. That way, if one blows, the others have a chance that they won't. They're not putting all their eggs in one basket, as the saying goes. Provided Junior's engine holds out, he WILL be in the top 5. They're down, but they're not out by a long shot.

And they turn darn close to 10,000 RPM at that track. I want to see Jr. pull one off but I have so little faith in his team.

If the engine doesn't blow or cow doesn't run on the track or any other 50 calamity's that might happen, JR will be in the top bunch of cars at the end !!!!

Who cares if you're an also-ran in the chase or not? I certainly couldn't care less! Is the #8 team going to suddenly figure out something that they haven't figured out in the last 2 seasons, just because they make the chase? No. Jr's not my guy, but I like him a lot more than most other drivers, so I'm not trying to bang on him as a driver. Their team just can't get it done. Be it setup, engines, etc, they just haven't had it firing on all cylinders, as they say. Here's to success in the #5 next year, because I seriously doubt you'll see it in the #8 :( Even if he makes the chase, would it matter? Who cares if you’re an also-ran in the chase or not? I certainly couldn’t care less!
