Does anyone know why Robblee is not coming back and for that matter Gresel is now selling his car  ? Is it all to do with the ford motors and weights ?

I assume you are talking about Steve not Matt. I don't know but if I were to guess I would say that Steve will be concentrating on Matt's racing.

Ya you're right concentrating with Matt I would agree with but at the start of the year knowing there were 2 cars Matts and his Steve said he was excited for the new year and wanted that 10th,because he did sit out the last year.

I think the 81 is moving on to other sanctioning bodies. I seem to recall he has inked a deal Daytona in 2013 with an Arca team, and who knows what direction Delaware is going?  Based on the last few years of turmoil I wold be surprised if anyone was buying or building cars for Delaware.

Has there been any talk of 2013 from either of the owners?

Good luck to all in the championship chase and I look forward to the show tomorrow.

That would be great for Andrew, hope he has better luck than Andrew Farr years ago. That was a hard crash out of turn 4.To my understanding Jerry the owner of the Robblee team is done at Delaware,didn't every take the oss car car on labour day weekend. (which is a total differant class)to bad. Maybe this motor thing is like everything esle (after the horse is already out of the gate)and should have been dealt with a couple of years ago when they showed up.Now these guys have to fork out more money and start over with a different engine package ?Even if he looks like a big dollar team looks can be just that , from what I understand the engine may have helped but a great driver and team go a long way. Just my thoughts
