Please , I don't profess to know anything about racing . You guys are the experts . I just assume that the Ford engineers make changes in their race program based on input from all of the Ford teams .

I don't know if Ford has specific setup info, but they sure know how Yates stopped all the FR9 blowups. Penske will get that, but the rest is rightfully up to Jack. I don't think Penske was ever good at sharing. He sure didn't seem to want to help GEM before they left Dodge.

I agree but I think there is some advantages too. If they found something, they only knew about and there is no other cars to compare them to but their own. I wonder why Dodge wasn't willing to make more a commitment. They're winning races and competitive. Obviously when compared to other manufacturers they don't have as many wins cause they don't have the car count. Compared to teams they're just as good.

Isn't it true that if the MWR program gets off the rails on say their short track set up , the Toyota Racing engineers will help them get their program back on track ? And isn't the TRD knowledge base , information that they have gained working with all of the Toyota teams ? In other words , Toyota teams share info with the TRD engineers who can use that info to help other Toyota teams for the good of the entire program.

It's not that serious
There are rumblings in the Twitterverse that Andretti Motorsports are going to NASCAR with Dodge.
