Roush has been total shit since 2004, with a glimmer of hope in 2011 when Earl tied Tony for the Cup.

I don't think it as Roush letting them go as much as it was Gibbs with lots of $$$$$$$$4

We all know it won't happen, but I'd love to see Nascar ditch the splitter and chop the side skirts down to allow some air under the cars.

I don't think so, I think Kenseth was just fed up with Roush not being able to provide sponsorship, then Edwards couldn't pass up on it after seeing Kenseth's '13 season.

I think Roush's struggles started with the COT, personally.

I think those that pitted and took 2 tires here will have a decent advantage.

If NASCAR raised the ride height on these things a bit so they weren't sucked down right on the track, it'd be even better.

Not really, Kurt took over the 97 from little and it was a top car

It seems like Nascar only wants to change things on these cars that can be bolted on & off. I don't think we'll ever see them mess with the nose or tails of these cars because the teams will bitch about having to modify the cars. I kinda miss the twisted Gen4 cars with the valences compared to these molded nose Gen6 cars.

No aero package can prevent NASCAR from throwing unnecessary cautions, however.

I do not miss the twisted sister cars. In person they were horribly ugly. There was no left front.
