I appreciate him even if Jim Campbell and Chevy don't. I suspect a call from The Felon is in order. Neutered Ross.

Yes, it is.

His job is to get the best possible finish he can for himself and his car owner.

I am a strong supporter of manufacturer teamwork. Having said that, I have a problem with a manufacturer getting into a kid's **** for pushing another manufacturer in a car that is not benefitting from Tier 1 support. He is trying to build a career. Give him one, and he won't be forced into that kind of situation. My two cents....
 
I'm so mad we're telling a 21-year-old kid his sole job was to help Kyle Busch win the race.

Part of me was hoping he would win at Darlington, but now I hope RCR gets locked out.

Richard Childress should be mad at Kyle Busch for putting them in this position where they had to win at Daytona. He should be mad at those races where Kyle Busch seemingly wrecked himself for no reason, and his team for underperforming so bad throughout much of this season.

That was his best shot at a good finish. As soon as he pushed the 21 past the 8 the 21 cut over in front of Busch and young Harry left Parker out in the wind. Parker lost 5 places in less than a lap.
 
Hopefully Parker can parlay this publicity into something big.
Team owners and manufacturers want winners, and he obviously wants to win.
Chevy and Childress should be acting a little more mature. They both look like the ones who are making bad decisions. Not Parker.

He’s apologetic.

That’s a shame.

More trumped up B.S. Nobody told him personally to not push the 21, nobody in the Chevy camp has been quoted for saying anything bad to Parker, but the click baiters have a story and the herd follows. It's a given that Fords push Fords, it's the reason the yotas added more cars so they have a better chance to win on super speedways.
Every fan knows this, the media preaches it.
The kid thought he had a chance to win the race. The 21 at the first chance he had, left him out in the wind and he finished 7th. End of the story. Decent finish for a first timer driver/team.

RCR mad at Parker? Probably because they got beat. Aren't team orders against the rules and risk of being penalized?

For all of the Rice Burner and Evil Empire **** we here from my boy, @StandOnIt about TRD and Toyota, kind of ironic that Chevy is the one pushing youngsters around for the greater good of the company. Need to hear from The Felon on this. He was excellent at neutering Ross.
 
What would Retzlaff’s reward have been? Did Louis Chevrolet articulate that?

Perhaps GM Racing’s time would be better spent figuring out how the kid got that turd of a car into a position to win.

Which explains why Parker had to justify his actions. Of course. Got it.

Hillbillies believe what they believe. The click baiters have an audience, reality is another story. The choose order was Busch, Burton, Bell and then Parker. Busch went inside, Burton outside, Bell went inside and Parker went outside.

Crap like this is why I am unwavering in my dislike of Kyle Busch. If he were any kind of champion, he would defend Parker and take accountability for his own failures to get the job done.
 
Anybody figure out why the 20 yota didn't lock on and push the hell out of the 8 car? I wonder what would have happened if he did? You think sold out Joe and the TRD'ers would be thrilled?
Kyle Busch said he was fine with the 20, thought young Retz might not be able to push him straight. But whatever, let the clown car roll.
 
As usual the twitterites are making something out of nothing. By gawd, let the kid race. Busch didn't do nothing, RCR hasn't said a word, the kid himself pushed a Ford to a win lol.. He in turn finished 7th and got tons of publicity. But everybody is mad lol.

If the 20 pushed Spinny far enough out, he passes him for the win. Yeah, JGR hates Kyle so much that they gave up a win. Delusional.

Retzlaff: Didn't Mean to Cost Busch, Chevrolet; Was Trying to Win at Daytona

More click bait. Where was Parker? Not even a direct quote...grasping at straws.
Hell I'll write one...Chevrolet was disappointed they didn't win, Parker took it hard after he was mobbed by the click baits on twitter and every other Dick and Harry wondering why he didn't knock the 20 out of the way and push Busch.

Chevrolet is soooo mad. Jim Campbell himself ripped Parker out of the car on pit road and fired him on the spot. And I heard Richard Childress went to Parker's house the next morning and fed antifreeze to his cat.
