But I guess that would be too logical....[/quote] I agree with that if dario would run a full season in the trucks or nationwide series it would only help him and maybe throw in a few cup starts,but its not really his fault these owners throw these irl drivers in cup cars expecting them to win and run in the top 10 every weekend and thats not gonna happen.

Sabates and Chippy have floundered for 8 seasons now. They wasted way too much money developing Mears. Their equipment is junk. They can't attract sponsors. They got rid of guys like Elledge and Stremme only to embrace Hmiel. The parade passed Hmiel years ago. They hire 2 world class drivers like Dario and Montoya and then can't give them the equipment and support they need. The deep rooted problems of this organization have finally come to light and they won't go away. Unless you close down the entire NASCAR program.[/quote] Or make a significant investment in engineering and bring your chassis and engines in house (Im not sure that they do their chassis in house) Dustin wrote:

It appears the Trucks are closest to the Cup cars they should have run him the route they are running Speed skipping the Nationwide series altogether since the cars are no longer the same as the Cup cars Fisha you are sort of right.
