He'll probably win or run 40th.... interesting that if he goes to Sonoma, Ford would have both Ambrose and Montoya.... that could prove fun.

I have no idea why anyone would drag Peblo back into the sport. I swear I have never seen a driver so hard on equipment. I can't find the stats on how many DNF's that guy had, but it was a lot! With out exaggerating, I think he crashed at least every 3rd race - probably a real conservative number - even if he finish. I guess Penske is concerned that he's got to much money/ too many cars and would like to throw some away.

Peblo will probably take out Jr at the Brickyard - I can remember him doing that about 3 years ago. He only has a average finish of 20.3 at Indy, inspite an average start of 6.4. That is typical Peblo - he usually has the best car in the field

I don't know, remember wehn Kurt Busch got suspended a couple of years back, and James Finch of Phoenix racing said he would have a "major discussion about his future" with Busch? His argument at the time was that 13 races into the year, Kurt Busch had crashed 12 cars. (Including speedweeks, practice crasehs, race crashes, qualifying accidents, etc.

The biggest difference is that Finch never put Kurt in the best car in the field. It was a good car at best. Peblo has 9 career poles and he never closed the deal on any of them

And for our normal crapshoot, I'm guessing the following will make it through the carnage.

Dale Jr
Kyle Busch
Harvick.

Kyle has gotten a LOT better about keeping cars together on restrict or plate tracks in recent years. Come a long way since Smoke put him in the wall in 2009 after taking one too many swipes. Still don't like him, but he's done well for me so far this season.
