veteran JAMBRS know I'm no expert on up-and-coming drivers, or the conventional "strategic-stategeries" of Cup day-to-day business, but what I DO know is...........
marketing and/or publicity stunts !!
with the #22 Shell car pretty much 'meat' as far as the whole 'chase-thingie' goes, why don't they just hit the WTF-button and out of right field plop one of the Penske open-wheel guys in there? media circus?? sure..... snowballs-chance-on-a-hotplate?? ahh, shuu, YEA.....sell a couple extra tickets??probably, especially if they do it at the race 19 days from now, I mean really, they have nothing to lose, and everything to gain, maybe if racing could regain some of its "what the hell" past, maybe they'd sell some more tickets, just sayin.........
....and yea, I know Hornnish Jr was an open wheel guy, I mean a current guy whos having it thrown at him, not a guy who crossed over and, admit it, failed to impress..
