Was that Gary Densham is done after Sonoma, and Melanie's car owner Roger Burgess may pull the plug after Indy....

Gary D isint going anywhere. He's been saying that for years but yet he still shows up at the next race. Now the Mel thing might have legs. I just wish for once she could get into a situation where she didnt have to worry about this crap. Its like every year and every team she gets associated with this happens. We will see how that situation all plays out, with all the rumors around who knows whats true but something has to be.

They talked to Gary about it on the TV show, and he essentially said he's going to stay out as long as is financially possible, but he does need help.

I hope Gary stays out as long as he can, he is in the top 10 in points.

And so much for Roger Burgess staying out the whole season, huh?

The reason I talk to myself is that I'm the only one whose answers I accept.

Why no Pro-Care RX signage on Mel's car at Seattle??

It may have something to do with the IRS rules about sponsoring your own car and the tax laws.

Menards had the same issue when they sponsored Paul's NASCAR ride.

Densham should take the Paul Smith approach for the next few races. He's currently 7 rounds ahead of 11th place, so just make only the qualifying passes needed to get into the show and save on parts. I could also see him sitting out perhaps the last race or two before the countdown starts, depending on where he's at in points by then.

I agree about Melanie. She's one of the best drivers out there and has a tremendous amount of marketability to boot. Wish she had the big budget.

She is not one of the best she is the same as all of the drivers. Please tell me why she is one of the best or better yet why you think she is.
They all could drive and are good shoes otherwise they wouldn't be out there!
Marketability! I agree since women are the flavor of the month in the motorsports arena.
I look forward to the day when they are just another competitior and I bet you Melanie feels the same way.
I like Melanie don't think otherwise but unless she has done something I'm not aware of I would like to know.

Well just to be accurate TJ and Capps have won in both classes as well. I don't think Melanie has ever had a consistent enough situation to prove how good or bad she really is. That said I think she's a pretty good driver

S/F
D

She had a pretty consistant ride in TF before they gave her car (well, all of it's parts) and crew chief to Morgan Lucas.

So the really good drivers are pegged to how good the crew chief and team funding is!
Interesting so I guess Tony Schumacher is the best T/F driver with that logic!
I hate to tell you but the crew chief and setup has nothing to do with their ability to drive.
So it comes back to what I said "THEY ALL CAN DRIVE"!
