Turns out Tony's crew chief is out of a job. Championship winning crew chief got canned after charlotte. Wonder if Stewart will have second thoughts now.

He hired Roger Slack, I'd think the first few races at Eldora might be a little iffy this spring. Unfortunately the first few races this spring include one of the few USAC shows.

As for the crew chief comment, I'm sure you would have said he was an idiot to leave JGR as well.

Smoke was smart enough to start his own team, hire the right people including Ryan Newman, attract the right sponsors, get a partnership with Hendrick, if he has a reason why Grubb shouldn't be back... then I'm not going to call him an idiot. While it does seem odd, I'm just a fan with very, very limited information. I'm sure he would have his reasons.

I haven't seen many "idiots" get to where Tony has gotten in his career. I am sure Tony will make the right decisions about the future of his race teams. I just hope he does keep Grubbs in some capacity with the team.

Yes he did win but only got there on a wing and a prayer ...remember in Aug he got rid of some "DEAD WEIGHT"....just because he ran good for 5 races and like crap for 4 races and won the championsip by the slimmest of margins should not change what happened the other 26 races.....look at the WHOLE PIC!!!!!!!!!!


and that is what he needs to do with ELDORA...look at the WHOLE PIC and the track surface needs to be fixed so EVERYBODY WINS...from the working man that has just enough to pay for a ticket to the rich guy that can throw money out the window....FIX THE SURFACE DAM-IT!!!!!!!!!

I like this quote.

Quote:
Stewart wasn't clear on what Grubb's situation was for the long-term.

"I know what his status is for the rest of the night, and I'm going to get him drunk," he said.
"Tomorrow if we can just pick our heads up off the floor without throwing up, I'm going to be extremely happy, but I'll worry about that tomorrow."

The best thing Tony did was get rid of Jessica Zemkin.
