She let JR slid thru her fingers due to wanting to be the BOSS. Well, shes the boss , now what? hummm Now Martin Turex feels some of what JR went thru, trying to keep DEI competitive, from what has been seem this season its real close to impossiable. Feel sorry for them, nope . They had someone that wanted to get DEI to where it use to be, A WINNER. But PRIDE got in the way. As for RCR ....... I like the drivers, but its funny to me when the engins hit the DEI shop they seem to stop working. They have a LONGGGGGGGGGGGGG way to go.

With the Spec Chassis, and the Spec Bodies, the only real difference as we all know between the cars is the engines, and DEI and RCR have a Joint engine program. The only real difference between lets say the 29 car and the 1 car is the Make/Model of transmission (which may be the same) and the Makes/Models of Shocks/Springs (which may be the same). Being competitive in Todays NASCAR Cup Series has more to do with the crew chief and engineers at the track then anything in the shop. What I meant by the whole RCR thing is this.
