Damn. Dunno if I've ever seen someone on the front row go backward so quickly without having something break on the car. |

The last F1 race I saw on TV had me agog when I saw a pit stop. It looked like they had 25 people servicing it. Sheesh. |
- 3 men per tire = 12
front & rear 'jack' men = 14
2 fuel guys = 16
lollipop man = 17
helmet wiper man = 18
I think there's also an exhaust deflector guy and engine starter guy, too.
Dunno the exact count for sure, but it's a bunch.

You and maybe one other.

I think its a personel count/chevy thing for this year. None of the chevys have done well (sarah is the ONLY chevy to start from the front row this year). |
And Hornish is the only one who has actually gone fast in a race with
one - So what's your new, irrelevant, insignificant, and addition to
the excuse pile point?

For every guy that D&R has working for them, the penske's have at least two. You can't convince me that this has no nothing to do with it. One if the fuel people for sarah is .... Daddy! (not that this isn't good, he can build competitive race cars from scratch) |
Penske has more than Panther, too. And more than AGR. And more than
Ganassi. And more than just about anybody else. Care to step back from
trying to obscure and cloud the issue further, and make a relevant
argument?

Its been that way for decades. don't tell me you just now realized it?
But again, that has nothing whatever to do with Sarah Fisher's lack or
results and growing mound of tired and lame excuses.

She's a menace. Park her and give someone deserving the ride. Talk about damning with faint praise...who deserves that Chevy POS? |
Good Point! Priceless!
You are absolutely right. I stand corrected. :-)

You were half right. Damn. Dunno if I've ever seen someone on the front row go backward so quickly without having something break on the car. Once she came off the throttle I thought for sure they were heading for a five or six car racing deal. Wingman said 4 to 5 laps and even that may have been a little generous. She's a menace. Park her and give someone deserving the ride. When you operate a race team you can make those calls. And when you are elected president you can dictate foreign policy. Pot, meet kettle. |
sponsorship. If bleach blonde give them some attention that is not all bad.
Your opinion may vary.

Three per tire, the lolipop guy, the front and rear jackmen, two on the fuel hose and the visor cleaner= 18. YMMV. |
