I love Chad, and extremely happy that he will be back with Jimmie. Keep in mind, I would love to have him crew chipping one of MY Toyotas, but in reality, this is a great thing....
I'm afraid they're going to do something over the offseason with Alan and Chase due to the constant chirping about not winning but I hope I'm wrong. I also wonder how much longer Alan wants to continue on as a CC in general.Yeah, I've heard some folks suggest HMS should swap around their crew chiefs to shake things up or whatever. That might have worked back in 2010 or whenever, but I don't think that's the solution to their current troubles.
STOP.Chad signs a two year deal......For you @Johali......GO!
I think it needs to happen, I thinks time for CC change .I'm afraid they're going to do something over the offseason with Alan and Chase due to the constant chirping about not winning but I hope I'm wrong. I also wonder how much longer Alan wants to continue on as a CC in general.
Your assuming there is still fire in the belly. Maybe they just want the paycheck.I am happy for them. At the rate this season is going for Jimmie Johnson or Chad Knaus, it would have been an unrepresentative and unfair swansong for the two, so am I glad that they will get a chance to show a resurgence the next two years.
I hope there is still fire in the belly. Going for just a paycheck during the next seasons would be utterly lousy, and a let-down for their fans, imo.Your assuming there is still fire in the belly. Maybe they just want the paycheck.

That has been the way at HMS for years even with Gordon driving.Chase and Alan REGULARLY outperform the rest of HMS

HeyyyI don't let the shiny sphere of race wins totally blind my judgement of a team's performance. Wins are important, but they don't tell the whole story. The 24 team last year finished better in 22 of the 36 races, scored 12 top 5's to 4, scored 21 top 5's to 11, led 560 laps to 217, average start 10.8 to 16.9, average finish 12.0 to 16.8, RAF 32-29, LLF 27-25 and finished five positions higher in the points standings. Those three magic weekends the 48 had aside, week in and week out, the 24 car was the by far the biggest threat to damage to the competition. Three good weekends out of 36 doesn't cut it for me, how about you?
