You ran out of fuel. I'm wondering if a good crew chief would allow that to happen. well, Kyle obviously Steve Addington is not the problem. You ran out of fuel.

You deserve it. Keep up the good work. As for Kyle, my mother always said if you don't have anything nice to say, then don't say anything at all. Congrats Jim!!!! You deserve it.

Good point. I did see some shades of patience in his racing demeanor Saturday. It certainly didn't hurt that JGR prepared a beast for him that had power to spare. It iwll be interesting to see if he can translate that sense into his Cup driving. It could be a temptation to press, and then this car is so dang termpermental, it will test your patience. It will be a good test. But just as sure as he caught fire in the first half of the season, he can catch fire in the second this year. Sometimes I think it's too easy in this long season to look at a short stretch and think that will be what the whole season is based on and then see a trend doesn't hold up. Clint Bowyer comes to mind. His season started well and went south quickly. @Rachel. Good point. I did see some shades of patience in his racing demeanor Saturday.

Watching him Saturday in the Nationwide race, I didn't see him make an impatient move all night. He was even conserving fuel at one point, which has got to be against everything in his nature! But he knows he is leading the points there and as much as he hates "points racing," he seems more or less reconciled to do it to win the Nationwide championship. I expect him to do the same in Cup races leading up to the Chase. I also think the week off from the Sprint series did wonders for his attitude. He was smiling during his interview before the race. Usually we don't see a hint of a smile until he gets to Victory Lane. Jim, I agree with you that Kyle is smart enough to know what he is doing.

Then we won't be able to read your fabulous work. As far as I am concerned, NASCAR got it right by letting you into the new media corps. Congrats!
