If petty Enterprises really wanted to be in Victory Lane, they would be. Richard Petty is stacked with cash and Bobby's equipment is shit. Richard could give Bobby the best car if he wanted and could also give the 45 the best car. The Petty's don't care about victory anymore.

I remember he sat in for whoever was driving the 96 last year at a road course, and he had the thing running up front for a while, right? No matter what anyone says, I'd take Terry over Kyle any day, regardless of what the equipment is like! David Greenburg wrote:

A driver is only as good/bad as his equipment.[/quote] They get their stuff from GEM, i think your wrong about equipment. Today it's all about the setup so i believe it has to do with needing more engineering help but that cant be all of it. something is missing on that team and i think maybe Terry can help get things moving in the right direction. The crew needs a driver they can rally around not one they know is not going to push it to the edge. If you notice the guys in the top 10 every week every one of those guys will take everything their cars will give and then take a little more the 45 crew needs a driver like that. wrote:

They need to really get serious about finding a permanent replacement for Kyle. How long are they gonna stroke McCumbee around before he takes a hike?

My 3 year old son could go out there and run 43rd week in and week out. At least Terry will have a guaranteed spot in the race. Like George said, Kyle is a great guy and a good role model, but his day has come and gone as a competitive driver. I think he'd be a great team director of some sorts and I hope he hangs around the garage too, but just get out of the car for goodness sakes! wrote:

Kyle's time in cup racing has passed and he needs to embrace whatever comes next but i hope he doesnt disappear from the track. We need a petty to be at the track every week for image if nothing else besides his knowledge will be invaluable to getting the 45 back to victory lane.
