They say that one usually makes his own luck...
D.C. is one heck of a talented driver. He did good things with Mike Dzurilla's Bullet Motorsports team when that program wasn't all that great.
Now, team a more-experienced Connolly with the Victor Cagnazzi group, and this was bound to happen sooner or later.
Cagnazzi took a page from the GA book (realizing that there is some serious validity to NASCAR technology in Pro Stock) and he ran with it. Having EVERYTHING in-house, plus getting Stevie Johns with his "Grumpy" experience, makes for good control over all aspects of the operation.
If he ends up winning the Championship, it will be because of this, not just dumb luck. GA went into "test mode" and hasn't recovered back to "race mode" yet. It may bite him....
