AND ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME???? Jr close to winning "In part due to Steve Letarte" WHAT??????? RETARTE IS WHAT HAS KEPT JR FROM WINNING!!!! As someone on this forum pointed out, Jeff Gordon's only two winless seasons in his career came under Retarte, and Jr hasn't won with Retarte. Retarte is doing what he always does... dominate the first half of a race, fall off in the 2nd half, and then just salvage a "top 10" when he should have been in victory lane. Unless Retarte changes some philosophy, wakes up, or someone new gets on the box again... Earnhardt isn't winning a race.

One chapter down, the rest of the story to come - Mar 29, 2012 - NASCAR.COM
you know in part i agree: But i am a die hard Earnhardt fan and probably always will be.....

Granted letarte did have that effect with gordon true....
But maybe, gordon also had a hand in what calls to make when..Im speculateing.... Lets hope he has a better handle on things....

As far as Martinsville goes..its half mile and yes handleing is a must...But...If JR has the right stuff..he just might be able to "MUSCLE" it to the front for his first win.... Even with a half way decents setup...

10 Fingers and 5 toes crossed. lol (amputee joke) since im a 1 legger.
