it's so hard to say what the problem is when these teams can't repeat, especially as the season
is split in two these days. i'm optimistic that rwr will step up the rest of the year. if you're not a top budget team,
my guess is you might not always get a lot of what you need at the beginning of the year.
jim oberhofer has shown he can throw down with the best of them. i think that team has been slightly parts handicapped this year,
and i hope the two cars show improvement starting next weekend.
IMO grubnic isn't going anywhere. if kloeber still wanted to do this full time, i think he'd already be out here with someone.

Kloeber was fired by Doug Stringer when Jim Oberhoffer became the new crew chief. And it wasn't because of lack of performance.

I’m not sure Tony is always so easy to deal with either…..
Whatever the case, they sure have had a terrible year. They almost had their act together with Clay’s open canopy car last year, and things just have not gone right at all. I’m not sure if there’s any single source that can be blamed, but from what I’ve seen there has been, or was a bit of friction going among the personnel this year. We’ve seen Rick Ware clean house once already, I don’t know who was the impetus for that, but he’s clearly not afraid to make changes.

I hope not, and it’s out of a sincere hope for them to perform well.
Go look on Clay‘s YouTube channel. People are kooks over there. We are very tame

i think you have to go back to norwalk or bristol to find a representative run from this team in E1.
there is a recipe for running well and it has been there until this two car team formed.
there are other 'name' CC's out there right now that are struggling as well.
is angry hornet guy around anymore? lutz was missing in indy. i have no clue what is going on.
i wonder who found the ACC company money that funds the schumacher ride? personally i would have no problem watching
tony leave to try and find another ride. he's done so well in drag racing, why can't he start his own team? (said facetiously)
