2010 Q&A

 2009

 

 

Q After running a full season in the Cup series as a crew chief, have you changed the way you approach adjusting the cars or various procedures etc?
Gael Brooks, Tucson, Ariz.
A I have changed some personnel and I believe I will be better prepared for each race than I/we were last year. The goal every year is to get better personally and get the team better so I think I/we have done that this off-season.
   

Q How much information is shared between Roush Fenway Racing and other teams like Richard Petty Motorsports and Woods Brothers Racing?
Matt Holschuh, Fond du Lac, Wis.
A We share little with the Petty bunch and no information gets shared with the Wood Bros.
    

Q

Now that NASCAR is replacing the rear wing with the rear spoiler, How does that change the car in terms of handling?
Paul Dobratz, Watertown, Wis.

A We will have to see at the March 23rd Charlotte test when the cars can get out their nose and tail and see how they drive in traffic. We have an idea from the tunnel results but I like to see real-life scenarios before I make a judgment.
   

Q How much do the gas cans weigh, both empty and full?
Mike Fangman, Midlothian, Ill.
A Full is about 85 pounds and empty is 12-15 pounds.
   

Q I am starting a new job as at a Ford Dealership as a service Technician. Do you have any advice for me?
Jim Murray, Columbus, Ohio
A Bleed the blue oval. Ford is doing great things right now on the street and on the track. Their market share keeps rising and it is a company to believe in and want to be a part of.
