    Toyota now has the Gibbs folks to tap into for engine advice. Not a bad deal for them.

    Nah. Seen the results at the end of the races? Drivers who are still on the track are listed as "running." :p

    Junior is going to challenge for the title this year. The 88 is looking good, I'm sure it'll be real fast in testing next week.

    But does the green paint or the blue paint make the car go faster? :D

    Mr. Boogityboogityboogity said Junior would win 10 races this year. What more proof do you need?

    Our long national nightmare is over! Dale Jarrett will take Rusty Wallace's spot in the play-by-play booth after he steps out of the #44 backmarker, while Rusty will become ESPN's "lead studio analyst."

    Also, Nicole Manske moves from Speed to ESPN, where she will host NASCAR Now and be more entertaining than Erik Kuselias. Allen Bestwick will move from the pits to the studio, where he will host NASCAR Countdown and be more entertaining than Erik Kuselias.

    Erik Kuselias is horrible on radio and downright unwatchable on TV.

    One story I read gave the impression that Manske might not have left for ESPN if she had more than the Sunday night Speed Report on her plate. Maybe that's true, maybe not, but Speed's lack of a nightly news show is a glaring hole in their programming.

    But if Speed did that, where would it put the endless reruns of Pinks and Unique Whips?
