This has to be Jamie McMurray's last year at CGR right?

I hope not! Bayne looks to be without a ride next year. If McMurray is the same, who am I suppose to root for??
 
But but but, lower ride height keeping cars on the ground, blah blah blah
 
The field is already wadded up because of plates. Reducing the plate size doesn’t unwad the field, it just decreases the speed at which 10+ cars will crash. It’s safer but the racing still sucks.
 
I've noticed McMurry has got much more aggressive in the last couple years. He makes plays to drive to the front - sometimes it doesn't work. I think his driving style changed when Larson came aboard. I'm guessing they work together but I wonder what caused the bumping deal - something happened between them (I hope it was just a racing deal).
 
The stint at roush is still puzzling.

McMurray takes over the legit 97 team and Kurt’s sponsors to boot... with fennig as crew chief(until he asked to be demoted to Busch series...) and then Jamie was buried 20 something in points with a team that Kurt won the title with barely 2 years beforehand.

Then remember in 2008 Jamie needed to qualify the car into the spring martinsville race on time. He was 36th in points going to that race.

Then 2010 he has the big season which he has lived off of for the last 8 years... then 2011 he finished what? 27th in points if I got that right...?

The dude has the skill but it almost seems he needs to be motivated... I dunno

He reminds me of Kasey Kahne. And, like Kahne, he always seems to deliver when his career is on the line.

Only winning one race, a plate race at that, at Roush was strange.
