Re: Walsh to tune Morgan Lucas

I hope Morgan gets his first win real soon.

In my opinion, this is his best shot to win since he left Amatos.

I bet the turn around is almost instant.

I think that Tuttle is a true sport for letting Jimmy go do this . Money should not be an issue as far as I can assume , the Lucas family has what they need . This is the most brilliant move I have seen from that team so far . I have had my opinions about the choices they have made before and been fairly critical about them in the past . But I believe Mr. Songas is spot on here . I say within 2 races he will be right there . I hope they keep him for next year , they will be a contending team if they do .

Morgan is just there to drive daddys car.

Puts Walsh closer to J.R., which we know is a good thing.

Walsh will be the best thing that has happen to the Lucas team, including J.R. You will start to see those 2 cars in the winners circle. I wish the best to the whole team, I hope Morgan find the same kind of success he finds in Alcohol.

Re: Walsh to tune Morgan Lucas

Wasn't Jimmy there just to help Tony Shortall get things sorted out? Looks like he did that last weekend. They were haulin the mail. I hope this works out for the Lucas team. They have done a lot for the sport and make some great fuel system cleaner too!

I think it's because KB just scooped him up out of the clear blue by waving $$$$ in Walsh's face. With this, Tuttle himself said that they have no chance of entering the top 10 at this point and Lucas does, so he might as well help him out.

With the KB thing it proves one thing: if you want your crew chiefs to stay put, have them sign a contract.

There is one person in particular who is silent on this deal. A year ago they were vocal on how evil KB was for luring Jimmy away from Dexter. Just like I said then, if you want someone to be your crew chief you better have them signed up to a contract. No contract=fair game

Re: Walsh to tune Morgan Lucas

Hopefully Jimmy's help will filter over to J.R.. I'm a big fan of J.R. and would like to see him get back to winning, it's been a bad slump for him since joining the Lucas team.

Actually, Kevin, there was much more to the team switch than was ever made public (nor will be), which is usually the case. Just as there is a good reason that Stewart will stay with J.R. and Walsh go with Morgan.
