You keep dragging him in, and he isn't beating his teammates Burton and Bowyer so I would suggest you do your best to not use Harvick at all....Quote:

its about DANG TIME.
CONCORD, N.C. (AP)—After months of firmly backing Dale Earnhardt Jr.’s crew chief, car owner Rick Hendrick is now being noncommittal about Tony Eury’s Jr.’s future.
Although Hendrick said Tuesday no personnel changes have been made on Earnhardt’s No. 88 Chevrolet, he declined to give Eury Jr. a vote of confidence a day after NASCAR’s most popular driver had his worst finish of the season. Hendrick even left open the possibility that Earnhardt could have a new crew chief this weekend in Dover, Del.
Earnhardt ran near the back of the pack Monday and finished 40th in the rain-shortened Coca-Cola 600, his worst showing since last season’s finale at Homestead.
I didn't bring him into the subject. but hes having a bad year.Quote:

its not the CC or the car. 5,24,48, plus smoke and private ryan have proven that hendrick motorsports produces great equipment. the one holding the wheel has to have enuff game to get it done.
jr. is a 15th - 25th finishing type of driver that can run up front from time to time. nothing more. its highly unlikely that jr. would have the quality rides had he not won the sperm lottery. unfortunately, it does now appear that the pressure is mounting on him like never before. it will be interesting to watch how much longer he continues to climb behind the wheel. its very possible he retires from driving before the #24 does.
Hendricks on 88 CC sucking

If Eury sucked so bad then Jr would not have had such a good run first 2/3 of last season. I think that he raced hard to prove a point and also had good equipment. This year I feel like he's not even trying, Eury is only a small part of that team's problems.
I dont think Eurys a bad crew chief, i just dont think they are gelling like they used to.
I give credit to Jr.'s crew though, they've been making an extra effort to make sure he finds his pitbox:

Eury is off the pit box. Brian Whitesell is on the box this weekend then Lance McGrew gets the job.

Tony Eury Jr., who has worked with driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. as crew chief or car chief since his Sprint Cup Series debut in 2000, is no longer working atop the driver's pit box.
Hendrick Motorsports announced Thursday morning that Lance McGrew has been named interim crew chief of the No. 88 beginning with next weekend's race at Pocono. This weekend at Dover, Del., team manager Brian Whitesell will lead the team.
"Our performance hasn't been where it should be," said Rick Hendrick, owner of Hendrick Motorsports. "It's impossible to pin that on any one factor, but a change is the right decision at this point. We have a plan in place, and we're going to move forward with it."
Whitesell and Rex Stump, Hendrick Motorsports' lead chassis engineer, have been assigned to support McGrew. Whitesell, who won two of seven races as Jeff Gordon's interim crew chief in 1999, will join McGrew and team engineer Tom Stewart on the No. 88 pit box to assist with race strategy.
