I consider myself a big Kalitta fan. A fan of the whole team. I think they have some of the best drivers in the sport. I hear driving a funny car, minus a spill plate, is quite difficult ( atta boy Jeff). I just have a couple of questions for you all. I'm pretty sure you would all agree that Dave Grubnic is a top notch driver. He's very informed, when it comes to the mechanics of his car. He is well liked by the fans, and his peers. I'll get to the point. Is there a reason for him to smoke the tires, or shake em lose, at least once every qual. session. I don't have the numbers to back this up, I'm just going on memory. That might be a mistake. It just seems it happens quite often. I wonder why, if you have all things in place, great sponsers, great owner, great parts,great tuners, great driver. What the problem is. Like I said, numbers wise, I don't know the last time Grubby went to the semi's. Or the last time he won a race. I know at times they can run the numbers. They just don't seem to put anything together. I'm sure Dave would tell you, he has the best of everything. But he has got to be getting sick of spinning the tires. I'm sure his sponsers feel the same way. How often can a team be an also ran. I would love to see the tide turn, or their luck change. It just seems something is missing. Who and when does somebody have to answer for their poor showing. And I know there are other teams out there going through the same thing. But I don't know that they have the sponser and team fortitude that Grubby has. I am by no means trying to knock anybody in particular, especially Dave Grubnic. Like I hear often on here, I have met the man, and he seems to be a stand-up human being. I wish the team the best of luck, and MANY SAFE ROUNDS.
