What does that have to do with anything? bo's car is an automatic unless he has changed it recently, which I doubt he has done.

I agree with the Phillbilly vote... He will cut your throat on the track, then help you fix a transmission in the pits.. Just how he is.. wont find anyone willing to help a fellow racer more than phil and more capable of getting it done on the track..

Now we all know that Grace Howell can handle a stick car.. at least a Pro Stock car.. and she is a great competitor.. BUT.. OK.. OK, Bo.. put me in Coach, I'm ready to play, hey hey.. and you get a crew guy to boot... IMAGINE THAT!!

I never said any of these drivers are slouches, I just said Phil deserves a shot at driving a first class car for an owner with good resources. None of those drivers mentioned are any better than Phil. If Phil can ever get to 8 national events a year and 8 divisional events a year, I promise you that everyone will hear of him really quickly and wished he stayed back in the hollar.

X2!

Philbilly gets my vote.

I agree have a private race and have them race for it.

There is a lot more that goes into how many national event wins someone has than just driving ability.
My vote is for the girl that routinly went 6.xx @200+mph shifting a 5spd Pro Stock car... it's not her fault the car she was in didn't have enough horsepower to qualify. Oh yeah but when she did qualify she was the 1st one to leave the green bulb 100% of the time... that should say something. The girl is as qualified as anyone in my book
