I am a firm believer that there are some tracks, just like Las Vegas, that Joey will do well at.

He has media all over him right now. And sadly, the way the media goes, its going to start getting negative towards him, especially if he doesn't make it into the top-35. Its not right, because he is just 18 and has many years to go. Joe rushed him in too fast, I believe. I (and I am obviously not a team owner) would have run Logano in the truck series for a year. The trucks are the closest he will get to a car in the Cup Series, and would pretty much guaranteed to make it in because of the Truck's small fields. Then, he could run Logano in a handful of Cup events at the intermediate tracks, and get another driver to run the 20 for a year, or even split the 20 with Logano. This way, the 20 would still be in the top-35 (hopefully) and Logano would have more experience in 2010. I feel sorry for Logano. He has media all over him right now.
