I'll say it for you. The 3.31 gears are just too tall, he needs at least 3.73s.


Wish I had the 3.31s.

What is really delayed for body shops is a wide spread hail storm, we had a brutal one in 2012 and we're literally working down a 6+ month waiting list.

You figure maybe 10% of a city will drive during ice storm, and maybe 20% of ice drivers get in a wreck, while most people stay at home.
And about 40 to 50% of vehicles live outside unprotected from hail. You do the math
Didn't know that hail storm was that bad back then....

Gordon's retiring after 2015. Kind of shocking but not really. I think he wants to enjoy family time now.

I kinda think hes going to pull a Mark Martin. Mark was set to retire in 05 with Rusty Wallace. He ended up driving all of 06 at Roush, then went part time and back to full time with Hendrick, then back to part time.

Why do I feel like this isn't the first time Pat and Jim have talked about their rear ends together?
