Now with all that out of the way.....Let's make some laps!
That is what I am wondering Racer1. I do not think he has run enough North races in a single season, but does his Southern experience prevent him from running as a rookie.

George's WSMT experience SHOULD make him ineligible for the WMT Rookie of the Year award, since they are equal divisions, but NASCAR has made funny decisions about RotY eligibility in the past. Chuck Hossfeld was not eligible for the RotY in his first full season on the Tour due to his CWTS experience, yet both John Andretti and Brendan Gaughn were eligible for the Nationwide Series RotY in spite of their Sprint Cup experience.
I thought Pallai was playing the full season by ear (and sponsorship), and not committed to anything other than the Stafford events. Has this changed or was I mistaken?
I heard from a very close source that Pallai's original plan was to run Thompson, Stafford, Stafford, Martinsville and Loudon (first 5) then re-evaluate.. However i recently heard they will run the full season and cut back on the SK races to balance it out.
Pallai also has one of the best crew chiefs in the garage--Dennis Prunhick (spelling is off), he was Tim Brown's guy the last 2 years and was the setup guy for Waltrip Racing, Petty, and Yates most recently..
