Hendrick's Perfomance/How is it Possible?
How on earth can Jimmy Johnson have such a great car, while Jeff Gordon has garbage? The commentators say it is because of driver's preference (loose vs. tight), but I just don't buy that. These guys share the same shops and secrets.
Is it the Speedway itself in Ft. Worth?

If they knew what was wrong, they'd fix it :)
I am not sure why they are taking so long in the garage. They said spring changes, but that doesn't take near 74 laps!

I think it shows just how much better Johnson and Knaus are compared to Gordon and Letarte. Johnson's been beating the tar out of Gordon for about 3 or 4 years now. Everyone on the 48 crew needs to keep up the good work!

I think that some of it has to be the driver and the other just getting the car set up correct. It does seem strange even when they share the same building and have all that money that they can pump into the cars.

Each driver does prefer his car loose tight etc. Probably boils down to not making the proper adjustments during pits.

well i race online and some races ..all drivers use the same setup..well guess what..some people still struggle and some do good. it all depends on your focus at the time how you feel and where your head is..i think that is the big diffrence.
some days i cant be beat and later that day or the next i cant even hold a line.. im still the same driver same setup just a diffrent day and it confuses me too

Oh.. you think Jr, Jeff and Jimmie should all have the exact same car and finish 1,2, 3?
Sh*t happens... same car , different day, ( and it's a COT)... things change...

Dale Jr apparently has thrown things off, now Rick is apparently giving him all the good equipment and hopes that Jeff does good with the crap equipment.

Well, Texas has always been an achilles heal for Jeff. So it shouldn't be any surprise. He'll come back.

Well I was listening to the scanner and they changed the springs and then they found a broken track arm . They changed that and they changed the shocks and went back out.
