Does this one sentence sum it all up for Tony Eury Jr?

May be...

It was frustrating to hear. To all the Jr. bashers, have you listened to drivers talk to their crew chief on the radio to know that Junior's feedback isn't that different from many other drivers? You just assume he is giving bad feedback. And as much as you think Jr. fans refuse to blame anybody but Eury Jr., you also refuse to believe it could actually be partly his problem.

I don't think Tony Eury Jr. knows what he is doing I just think they feel sorry for him because he is dale jr. cousin

Lenny I find it funny that you failed to mention FROM THE ARTICLE how RIck Hendrick himself said the 88 has been getting data from the other teams and he has been scratching his head at their lack of performance. Sounds to me there isn't a crew chief problem if the sports best team owner has no clue. You should post all the facts and not just the ones Jr Nation wants to hear.

Dale is a has been, Eury will be crew chief for Jeremy Mayfield if he doesn't pull his head out of his A--. Jr. I feel is the real problem, he doesn't give a crap he has all the money in the world and all his good buddies why should he race.? To try and be his dad? That will never happen Jr will end up just like Kyle Petty, racing on Daddy's name.

Yeah, that kind of sums it up. I know other crew chiefs say things like that. The problem with Eury Jr. is that that's the only kind of stuff he says. I listen in on the 24's radio communications as well, and it's different. Letarte talks to his driver and tells him similar things, but he also tells him about what he has planned. He has ideas that he talks about and encourages his driver. Eury Jr. just repeats what his driver says and says stuff like that. It sounds like there is no real plan inside his head. There probably isn't.

Steve Addington's made very similar comments to Kyle.

Well, sounds like maybe he didn't have a clue, or there were too many adjustment to list.

I hope they get their act together soon.

these two have to be a team u cant fix a car without great feedback from driver, look at the winning teams the drivers know what the car needs and then crew chief makes proper changes. both jrs need to find a better person to work with split these guys up they are losers as a team and will never win a championship together. which is fine by me. go stewart-hass racing

"We’re gonna try a bunch of stuff here,” crew chief Tony Eury Jr. said just before one pit stop.

What?????? (Is this how you make scientific adjustments during a Sprint Cup race???)

Your thoughts???????

For an organization that has top notch equipment, seems like Jr. is driving junk these days. I believe it is top notch equipment set up to run like junk.

In all fairness, I can understand why it would have started off the race in bad shape as the track conditions were terrible... Eury,Jr. apparently needs to learn a little somethin'-somethin' about what it takes to make a car handle.

I am beyond amazed that Rick Hendrick has allowed this to go on this long. It's sooo obvious that the Little E and Eury,Jr. combination is not working.

Book Eury,Jr. and give someone else a shot.

Junebug is a good driver and I believe he is trying hard, maybe too hard. He needs a steady voice on the other radio to make things work. One that knows how to set-up a car!

Jr.'s car was obviously junk. Ordinary adjustments weren't going to fix that car. So I guess they tried a bunch of stuff they might accidentally stumble on to something to make them better in the future. It doesn't look like they were able to make the car any better in fact I think they made it worse.

He probably said that because Dale Jr. told him "this car is plowing, and nothing is working", but didn't really explain what was wrong. So Eury Jr. probably had no idea what to do at that point, so figured he'd change everything if nothing was working.

Based on how the car runs every week it sounds like they have that conversation at every race.

Eury isn't very good as a crew chief, and Jr. isn't much better as a driver, and as you can tell this season, doesn't seem to have his head in the game...but you are right, until Jr. tries a new crew chief, we'll never know who's totally at fault.

I admire Jr's loyalty to his cousin.. It's a trait that is admirable, and endearing.. But it's time for Tony Jr to show some of the same loyalty, and find a graceful way to move aside, and let Jr move ahead in his career.. I watch lap times for all the cars in every race, and even when Jr is driving a fast car, or at least one of the fastest, Eury's strategy often mires him back in fifteenth place with a bunch of slower cars, or even costs him a lap.. He did it yesterday by taking four tires when Jimmie took two (DW is an idiot).. If Jr had taken two, he would have stayed on the lead lap long enough to fix the problem.. The COT has them all running the same speed, and it can be very hard for the driver to do anything about that..

Who knows what Eury's version of throw a bunch of stuff at it means! I think next week they should let Jeff or Jimmy practice the car some, and see what they can come up with. He ran really well the first half of 08. Something is seriously wrong there, and I believe it's about 80 percent the crew chiefs fault!pepsi every ten
