OK...

Ryan can qualify... he can run in the top ten... he drops to the line, and the car goes backward. what does it take to put some lead in his pencil...?

Is it the driver, or his motor...?

As you probably know it is a combination of many things. Could be the car, the engine, the crew, the owner. Could be one of those things, any combination of them or all of them. It may even be the driver. take your pick and go from there.

The crew can change tires on a good day... the driver can run around the track... the car just doesnt have the straight line speed... Newman needs a car that can compete with the Chevy's on the inside line...

I've had enough of the freight train.. as has newman!

I think the problem is the dodge motors .. only Kurt seems to have any speed, and he doesn't seem to have enough. fords are down too .. looks like Chevy's and 'yotas have the best power right now.

Since it appears that basically all the Dodge teams are having troubles I guess I would agree.

What's puzzling about that, is I believe the Toyotas are based on the Dodge engine. Although I originally heard it was based on the Ford Cleveland. Either way, it's not based on the Chevy.

Now, where's that CoT engine to even everything up?

everham says the problem was in his computer ... I don't buy it.
