Both Ward Burton and the MMM team have agreed that his change is the best way to fully evaluate the performance of the team.

no matter which Bodine you pick they are all losers as far as nascar
So what happens to Ward for2008? Whats the matter cant build fast cars
so you get rid of the driver. Remember the driver can only drive weather
its a fast car or slow car.McClure needs to pick up the shopp and
build faster cars he hasnt built anything fast in years and all he does
is blame it on the drivers. He needs to get some fast cars and hire
a young driver and have an old pro like Sterling Marlin mentour in a
ssecond car.
i’m sure ward has something lined up for next year already but the #4 has sucked wind for years
