that golden horseshoe surfaces yet again lol.....but 4th, 5th & 6th roush cars plus menard, allmendinger & sadler they were all in the top 20. only a matter of time before we get a win IMO. they're all running well so far. plus as far as i can tell, all front row cars should be (if i didn't overlook anyone) locked in & said's/stremme's too. although i could be wrong but it seems that way & being locked in is a big deal for sponsors.

You have got to be kidding!!!!!!!!!!! lets see 41 races 3 wins w/one because it eas called due to rain and still NO POSSOBILITY FOR A WIN.

I think finishing 4th, 5th, and 6th is something to be pleased about. These are teams that had no chance at winning a race last year. Things are turning around... I mean, when was the last time you had 3 Fords in the top-6? Doubt it happened at all last year. They are getting better. I think it's going to be okay this year... look, the 48 has won 3 of the 5 races so far, that doesn't leave many opportunities for other drivers. ;)

I think we'll see a FORD in Victory Lane sometime pretty soon... not so confident about Martinsville (because none of the Ford drivers have been particularly good there), but Texas should be a good one for FORD fans...!

Check that, said/stremme are NOT locked in. The 26 car is 12 points out of being locked in :/ but the 34, 37 & 38 all are as of now.

The 26 started and parked in a couple of the races this so far, so I don't think it really matters if they get back in the top-35 or not--they're probably not going to be running all the full races anyway...

Have you seen how well Paul Menard has done this year? That shows how much potential Ford has this year. Paul may be decent, but he's no contender.

Paul has been the flagship driver for RPM in several races this year, including today. He's been doing a spectacular job so far this season. I hope he's able to keep it up!

That's true, but I was thinking maybe if they were locked in with stremme they would find something....wishful thinking I guess lol.

Do you think stremme will stick around? I mean he doesn't have anything lined up, why not?

Well, it was Boris' call to put Stremme in the car this week. I would imagine that Boris will be back soon, but, as for Martinsville, I think Stremme will stick around.


DAVID STREMME – No. 26 Air National Guard Ford Fusion (Finished 24th) – "It was OK, but we just didn’t have any luck. We had a good car, but could never get track position. It’s a shame, but we’ll see what happens. We got them closer to the top 35. We ran good. We could outrun other guys in front of us, but we just never got track position. You need some luck here and we just didn’t get it."

WILL WE SEE YOU MORE IN THIS CAR? "I hope so. We’ll see what happens, but right now we’ll go back to the shop and discuss it Monday."
