All things considered, he's had a pretty good year. He's sitting 38th in driver's points with a decent shot of possibly moving up as many as 5-6 spots, which is pretty remarkable considering that he's missed 7 races this year. The team has had several good runs this year considering that its a startup, one-car operation, capped by an awesome run at Indianapolis for an 11th place finish.

It's good to see that they are going to let him run all the races. Hopefully they stick to there word. I think he has done a decent job for a first year team.

Well that's better than Rubby was in his first year as a team owner in points. He missed a race or two didn't he because he wasn't 35th or better and couldn't qualify his way in? Are you a hypocrit, stupid, or just having a little fun? 27th in a first year, single car, start up team isn't too shabby  and you as a Gordon fan should know that.   Or are you saying that because Robby finished 37th in the standing last year that he sucks and should fire himself as a driver, close the doors or his shop, and just disband his team?

Robby @ 37th= GREATEST DRIVER IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!

Tony Raines@27th= no good field filler that should  be tortured, shot, buried in an unmarked grave, and the earth above it salted so nothing will ever grow there again...........

I don't understand...........

Why hell, THAT is obvious. Everyone knows I'm "tetched" in the head.

I THOUGHT you were kidding but wasn't sure. It's actually nice to see a start up team do as "well" as this one has. Despite having a veteran driver as knowledgable as Kenny Schrader, BAM hasn't been able to put together as good an effort despite the number of years they have had to "git 'r dun".

That's good to hear.  I think he's done a very good job especially considering the circumstances everyone stated.  He's a good driver.  He deserves a full season and I do believe he will be in the top-20 next year.
