So much of NASCAR now has to do with the big money teams instead of the driving ability of each guy behind the wheel. I don't think there is much of a difference between the #1 & #15 drivers in the points race....just that one has better equipment, more money or better engineers. This is why my interest in NASCAR has dwindled quite a bit over the past few years. I went from hating road courses 5 years ago to loving them now....just because it puts a driver's skill to work a little more. If Danica Patrick came to NASCAR with Hendrick Motorsports she might finish in the top 30 in points, if she raced for the Wood Brothers or Petty, she would probably end the season worse than 30th. Back on topic a little more...next year we get to see if Jarrett's racing skills have diminished as much as they appear or if Yates Racing is really that bad nowadays. Personally I don't think he has been the same since Earnhardt died.
