I would have been glad to have Jr. and Clint swap teams...in my dreams.<br /><br />Not happy about this move if it is true. I like Reuty and Truex but I really don't think MWR has the equipment. Neither of those are cars are competitive and when Truex was in the chase last it was with EGR. A move to MWR is a huge huge downgrade. I hope I am wrong but I do not have a good feeling about this at all.

What isn't just about perception is that RCR fields better cars than MWR. They are a more established, larger team, and they win races on a regular basis. If the goal is being "the guy," this is a good move for Clint, but it will come at the cost of losing his best chance to win races and compete for a championship.<br />Good luck, Clint; you're gonna need it where you're going.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-24138427.post-4728702628693638902011-09-15T23:43:34.340-04:002011-09-15T23:43:34.340-04:00Very cool, with that kind of talent, MWR is surely...Very cool, with that kind of talent, MWR is surely going to improve.
