You got that right. I've worked with a few that couldn't tell me anything about what the car was doing, they just either liked it or they didn't.

And, unfortunately you better have a good understanding of roll steer and bar lengths and the effects of any change made. So you either better be dang lucky on set up or have a really good unstanding of what those changes do. Let's not forget about shocks and tires. The guys that are good are really good for a reason. I think the difference between a top 5 car and top 15 car today is minimal . A few turns the wrong way and I don't think it matters who is driving anymore.

To be a consistently good crew chief, that skill is a must. Not all drivers are analytical.Originally posted by Bubstr View PostI have to agree with you here. Some of these shade tree engineers can hear a engine, watch the brake rotor light up and see which way the front wheels are turning and know more than Einstein. (Everyone is a genius. It just depends on the questions asked.) Albert said that.

It is unlikely he will watch the car circle the track, identify an issue and identify a solution.

Want to adjust rollsteer independent of hike? Change bar angle or length.Originally posted by hucktyson View PostThe fellas involvement is just going to show how much the independent hike / roll steer adjustment and davensnorts ability to hammer the cushion was responsible for 2015

It probably isn't Babb. He'd actually have to actually race to get votes in the DoD top 25 poll if he was leaving Rocket.Originally posted by NormP View PostI'm guessing Shannon Babb. But I don't keep up with all the chassis rumors so I could be completely wrong. It wouldn't be the first or 1000th time.

Culp himself mentioned that he was getting XR1s. That's not really a rumor.Originally posted by cutman View PostTimothy Culp?
