yeah for reed, i hope he does well and shows he can drive a good car.

Reed should do good in the #83.
Its a good team......when Mears or Speed arent wrecking (No offense, Nick lol)
Casey was best in the #5, but he still sucked......sucked in the #07 and #83......
He's like a carbon copy of Sam Hornish! LOLOLOL!

What a joke... Mears sucked? Yet he was top 20 driver, missed the chase by a few points while driving for Ganassi, while Reed was trying to finish 25th in points. When someone has a new team every year, and a new crew chief twice a year, what do you expect? If he just stayed at Ganassi, or goes back, he'd be a top 15 driver again. But hey Reed has how many wins in Cup? As much as me?

Im not putting him down or anything, I like Mears, but he's not a great driver.
He's......okay?
And I never said Reed was amazing.

But you say Casey sucks. If he sucks than what is Reed? Casey barley wrecks, and I don't know why he wrecked Scott. But Reed, Vickers, no one will fix RBR. RBR sucks in a whole. They are down 40-50 HP.

Reed has never has a big time ride, and Casey's been w/ Hendrick and RCR, drobbed by both of them...
And youre right about RBR, they just arent good.
Vickers (when/if he gets back behind the wheel) should find another place

Mears was decent with Hendrick, but look at Junior or Martin.. seems like one driver just can't get it going at Hendrick. And RCR sucked last year, I believe Mears finished in front of bothy Burton and Harvick in points, or they were close together... everyone sucked last year at RCR. I am just saying, Mears and Reed stats at Ganassi are FAR different.

If Casey sucks, where does Dale Jr. fall in? Let's compare Hendrick careers, just for fun....

Casey at HMS: 72 races, 1 win, points finishes of 15th and 20th
Dale Jr. at HMS: 87 races, 1 win, points finishes of 12th and 25th (14th so far this year)

Funny how they aren't too far off....
