I told y'all something was in the air...
Gil Martin was Harvick's crew chief in 2002, they won Chicagoland that year. That was also Kevin's worst points finish of his cup career (21st). RCR has always maintained that they had pretty crappy equipment on '02, so it really wasn't a driver/crew chief issue, so we'll see how it goes this time around.#4 2014 Sprint Cup Champion, 2007 Daytona 500,2003 Brickyard 400,2x Coke 600,2014 Southern 500 Champ: 962 starts,90 wins, 345 T5s, 544 T10s, 44 poles, 2x NNS champ

Well, RC had to do something to shake things up. Hopefully it will help.

why he didnt want to do a three way switch including clint/shane is beyond me. does he like clint more? i wonder if this will drive harvick out of rcr after 10'.

Clint is 4th in the points. They wont mess with that.
Harvick and Burton have sucked this year as has Mears. I think there are a lot of little niggling issues at RCR and RC isn't letting the season just float away, he is trying to make something happen while the Chase is still possible."Water for my horses, beer for my men and mud for my turtle".

thank god, I had enough of Todd,
but Gil and clint worked great together in the 07. Shane and Harvick together would be like what they did in the 2006 NBS seasonBrian France is a violation of Section 12-1 (actions detrimental to stock car racing)

i think the 33 will need a new cc the next few races after richmond. rc hasnt looked at clint's most recent results the last two races. he's been running as bad as harvick, maybe a little better at texas.

It was on qualifying stage, he rolled the car and it was said that he won't be able to start the rally. But team managed to repair the car and he did start and dominated drivers like Rossel, Gryazin...
