This really sucks for JR...in fact it sucks all the way around.

Can't say I've ever tried Monster. But until today Budweiser had always been my brand of choice. I am now a drinker of Coors Light.

Re: Is Ray Alley still the crew chief?

Hmmm...I don't relate Jimmy's success with the rail to parlay into success with the flopper..not in the beginning anyway.

Lee B. didn't have any consistency..but look at him calling the shots for a T/F.

Alan J. didn't have any consistency with Scelzi and the flopper..and we all know what he's done since.

What has just played out just kind of makes me want it to fail..and I hope JR has continued success.

Re: Is Ray Alley still the crew chief?

Let me say, I'm not holding this against Jimmy W. I'm sure it more $$$$ for him, and yeah, In the long run, it's good that Jimmy gets this chance.

Having said that, This is it for KB and ANYONE that sponsors him... I'll still root for his kid, Tim, and KIm.... and I thought it was neat the Monster would sponsor a bunch of old men trying to be kids again... but, you loose 2/3's of the old guys, and now you have 'kids' trying to make the Old Man look good.

From Martin on the pick the winner thread (Yeah, I know, that belongs in another thread, but I'm trying to conserve/condense my posts so I dont piss off Kelly. Or Karl.. ) Don't worry Martin, The post count is all Ray's Fault...

Re: Johnny West out at Bernstein?

Hmmm .. that's weird. I just read in an Interview Article in one of the recent ND's, that Walsh, no matter how much money he's offered would not leave their [JR Todd's] camp because of the great camaraderie they've built.

As they say ... "that's drag racing". ....

Re: Is Ray Alley still the crew chief?

When I heard Jimmy was selected it made sense with the Tim Richards connection. I only hope this will not impact Brandon's car and I hope Kenny can get a car that will go down the track. I wonder what kind of contract Tuttle had with Walsh?

Re: Is Ray Alley still the crew chief?

This whole thing sucks, I`m going to be rooting against King Kenny even more than I do now. Can`t blame Walsh though, $$$ talks and loyalty walks. He better make that car an instant contender, because Kenny won`t tolerate struggling much longer. I think they`re still going to have a hard time getting that car qualified...at least for awhile.

Re: Is Ray Alley still the crew chief?

All the years J.Walsh worked for Joe Amato I felt he offerd more to the team than most gave him credit for. I was so happy when he got J.R.Todd running the big numbers and turning on the win lights. Folks, I'm here to tell ya I'm not happy with this last turn of events, Jimmy I still love ya bro but you broke my heart on this deal!!!!

Re: Is Ray Alley still the crew chief?

In my eyes it shows what kind of person Jimmy is. If he jumped ship at the end of last season I would say OK . But a man to leave a team two races into the season, with the start they have had shows a lack of honor and respect.
In other words he whored himself out to the highest $$$$ and screwed his former team.
What goes around comes around. And for Mr. KB Instant Karma is going to get you.
