I gotta chime in for what it's worth. I do not doubt Kevin or Brady's talent, but they have top notch equipment, an unlimited budget, and in my opinion one of the best mechanics in the business. Davey Jones is a genius with a set of wrenches in his hand. I have worked with Davey in the past a couple of times and I have the utmost respect for him and think he is one of the best. With these resources they should have posted better results. I think Brady should stay and Kevin should go. Brady has a lot of potential and he has proven it in the past, Kevin has indeed posted some impressive results, but has also had some moments of ignorance. Brady carries himself much better than Kevin and it shows. When you run for a caliber of team that KKR is, you have to act like a professional if you want to be treated like one. Kasey Kahne is not putting this money up for an 18 year old "kid" to make an ass of himself and embarass the team. I am sure they have worked their tails off to win races, but when all else fails, the easiest thing to change is the seat. As far as Sammy, I think it's admirable that he kept his kid out of a fight, but what he really needs to do is step aside and let his son take an ass-whippin like a man. He is old enough now, and it just might open his eyes.
