i agree with joe it has taken till this last race for me too get to the checkered flag its been a great year and i have learned from many guys in the pits and by trying to follow on track for me this year has been just learning curve and hopefully itwill pay off next year..i think you can talk to anyone in the pits for advice. i personally have gotten a lot of pointers from tim,jack,and tbird it also helps me that i have scott and brian as team mates they have been doingthis for a long time too oh yeah i almost forgot i also have critter(if that helps or not ?)
