Man, I never saw this one coming! Todd back at RYR. What a surprise. I guess that kinda explains DJ's comments the other day saying that the problems at RYR was not all Todd's fault. I personally am glad he is back with RYR and hope he can do great things with the 38 team. Todd is a very good crew chief and deserves a top notch team. I kinda wish he was back on the 88 team but it looks like shawn is getting that team turned around as well. Maybe we will see the old RYR back in 04'.
I'm surprized he's back at the 38. I would have thought he would "go home"
to the 88. Then Raymond Fox could go back to the 38. The announcement said Fox was still with the team.....however..it's that just spin-talk for "looking for a new job?"

Parrott back with Yates as 38 chief

He's back and not going very far.
Todd Parrott, who took a leave of absence from his position at Robert Yates Racing as team manager earlier this season and at one time appeared to be searching for jobs with other Winston Cup teams, was named crew chief for Yates' No. 38 Fords and driver Elliott Sadler on Tuesday .
Parrott, who served as crew chief for Yates' driver Dale Jarrett from 1996 to 2001, replaces Raymond Fox III. He will remain with the team.
"The 38 team had some success in several races this year but we feel like we need to improve the performance so we can run up front on a more consistent basis," said team owner Robert Yates.
"Todd's experience will take the No. 38 team to the next level. Raymond Fox has done a great job for us, and will continue to be an important part of this race team."
Parrott said he is ready to return to the role in which he found so much success.
"I am really excited to be back to work and am looking forward to working with Elliott Sadler. Elliott is a young, energetic and enthusiastic driver who has had an up and down season," Parrott said.
"They have qualified and raced well at times and I hope that I can help this young guy get into the winner's circle. With Raymond and I working side by side I think it won't be too hard to find victory lane."
Sadler said Parrott's return will benefit the whole organization.
"I think Todd Parrott's return will help us find the depth we were missing at this point in the season," Sadler said. "I said at the beginning of the year this team could win a championship and I still think that today."
Parrott led Jarrett's team to the 1999 Winston Cup Series championship and has 24 wins as crew chief with that team. Dave Smith will continue to work as the car chief under Parrott and Fox.

This ia a great move, putting a veteran crew chief with the young Sadler. I am still in shock over RYR bringing him back, because earlier in the year he was blamed for the #88s problems because of not keeping up with technology. I think this move will help Elliott get a couple wins and move up near the top ten in points by the end of the year.
