Crew Chief is a very over rated title in my opinion....Most guys that have been involved w/ a fuel car for @ least the last 5-8 years could get a car w/in two-tenths of a record w/out any previous data. Most of these cars have basically shelf/store bought parts....
When I first got involved w/ fuel racing my partner person was Marc Denner, who had never worked on any type of drag car, and look @ him today...Chris and him share duties and make most of the calls....
I have worked on many blown fuel/alcohol cars that could of ran better but the crew chief did not ask for any input from the team.......image and egos are huge in the fuel circle....
#1 Kevin Poytner.......should have title of crew chief...easily
This list could get deep.....

Ronnie has not worked out in the past because he has had a drinking problem.
