Alright Im back with my guess on one of my most favorite tracks of the season. (Richmond) Hendrick and Childress always seem to run good week in and week out but I think toyota is due for a win. Id say either Denny Hamlin will win or Kyle Busch (even though I dont care for him, he can sure drive a racecar!) could have a strong run. I also like kasey khane here but I dont think they will win just because he's running with redbull racing.

So my choices are Denny Hamlin or Kyle Busch.

I'm going with Cousin Carl or Harvick. Whatta think there Mr. Zeebs about Gibbs thinking of swapping crewchiefs between the 11 and 20 cars? Jayski's says it's gonna happen. :confused::beer:

Hmmmmm intresting I havent had much time to follow nascar news lately, I hadnt heard that. After the amazing run the 11 team had last year they sure arent performing this season but that could possibly be because they were focusing too hard on a championship and got behind with stuff for this season. But I think if he can turn his luck around it can be done this week in Richmond. He likes Virginia short tracks and has always been tough at Martinsville and Richmond.

So back to your question I dont think it would be a good idea to change it now since the 11 team is just coming off a good season last year but if they dont get their stuff in line late this year then yeah, during the chase races I might make a swap to prepare for 2012 as long as the 20 team is struggling too. But I think you have to give the 11 team a little more time to recover from their heatbreak last year, I think moral on that team is down a bit and it needs to run its course. Obviously changing crew cheifs this early in the season if moral is down isnt gonna help, its gonna be more like a swift kick to the balls when they are already laying on the ground in pain!:eek:

Sorry bout the long response but thats just my take on it. How about yours?

I'm thinking the same. Mike Ford and Hamlin have had a good relationship thus far. I think alot of their problems were engines and bad luck at the start of the season. It's to early to bail out. I still think if anyone can groom Logano, Zippadelli is the guy.:confused:

Gibbs crewchief changes have been denied. Not going to happen. Hamlin finally finds victory lane and wins the Nationwide race.

This is true, but he just doesn't seem to make it in the long run, he seems to wipe someone out or he gets wiped out, I don't think he finishes too many races without an appointment in the body shop Monday morning :)

He thinks with his heart instead of his head but he is a heckuva wheelman.

The Colombian ran scared from Newman after the race. Too funny. I met Newman in Phoenix and he is a big dude that would put Montoya in the hospital.

no accident for jr. he was just off pit sequence. He and burton both had to pit with around 12 to go under green otherwise he was running pretty good.
