Yep, most of it has been engines.....but just think if he had that 100 points back from the Darlington incident, he'd only be 28 points back now...

O.K. If the engines are so bad, why has Truex not had so many problems? Dale admitted to abusing his engine at Watkins Glen during practice. Haven't noticed Menard having a whole lot of engine trouble either.

the two way $1000 for an ordinary oil pump swap is insane. The section is approximately $a hundred and with a chum one ought to swap it out in a nil.5 day interior the storage. Its an ordinary count of draining the oil, dropping the oil pan, swapping the pump, setting up a sparkling pan gasket and reinstalling the pan then refilling the oil. If the pump is honestly vulnerable, and your lifters are ticking a sparkling pump offering greater stress could help with that difficulty. yet actually, the engine is drained and doubtless desires a minimum of an actual end rebuild because of the fact the lifters are actually not staying pumped up after the engine is close down.

Yes it has been blown engines Dei has sucked at building engines they dont have a good R/D program a few years ago the only thing they could win at was superspeedways Teresa and that new bozo i cant rember his name is more worried about buying out teams and switching to ford and all other kinds of things and the thing that blows my mind is why not put a full time driver in the 8 car they are not going to win a championship that way heck any of us could run that team better than they could

In my opinion yes it is because of the engines. How many have blown this year, 4...5? It isnt only Jr. that has had problems with them either.
Of course there will be some smart alec saying that Jr. just doesnt have any talent but I know better. He has tons of it. He drove the wheels off of that car Sunday!!!!!!!!!!!

Lets put it this way, blown engines are what kept Jr. out of
the chase this year, if that's what you mean. That is, if he
doesn't make it. But that is only part of the problem, DEI can
only build a top 20 car and they need to be able to build top
10 cars all year long.

It has been bad engines this year and the 100 point penalty. Just think how close he would be to getting in if that penalty had not occurred.
