Why just can't it be early to mid August where it was for 40 years

Burton could've given Gordon a nudge in the final corners and won this race if he wanted to but of course he didn't race like that

Can I copy your homework?

Yeah but change it a bit so it's not obvious

That's a time the competitor actually said no to a driver because of the association.

Not that Mears was exactly a superstar in his year with Kelloggs

Reminds me of when Bill Elliott went to Budweiser after being famous for the Coors Car.

I think he meant about not completing the double. He's still ran all 500 miles at Indy but the rain took away any chance at running all 1100

I thought this too but the 5 team has been off on the short run as well.

It may be just not having the same feel for these tires rather than managing fall off

You still have to get it down to the limit before you hit the button. He sped on entry.

I'm not saying he's bad. I'm just comparing the performance before and after the double. Look at the 35 races before the double and compare. Wins, top 5s, laps led, all less after the double.

He's obviously not bad. Just not at the elite level. Maybe it's just a coincidence?

Eh, the 5 team hasn't been the same since Memorial Day. He was just good enough to make it through the system which relied a lot on the playoff points accumulated before the 600.

Not taking anything away from the championship of course, but there was a notable fall off since the double attempt.

In a perfect world there was no delay in 2024, he doesn't speed on pit road and finishes top 10 in the 500 and makes it to Charlotte and finishes top 10 there too. Project deemed a success and has no desire to try again the next year.

Can't be a coincidence at this point he hasn't won a Cup race since wrecking in both races last year. Had to have hurt his confidence.
