Hope I do not regret this post and I hope it is taken as just an honest question.

Jeff,

You keep mentioning your trucks.

I did a little research and the last time you ran a truck at Indy was in 2002. You qualified 58th at 1.011 under the index. That is very far from not qualifying. I'm sure there are a ton of people who would love to be able to qualify in the top half of the field at Indy.

Could you please post a link to where you didn't qualify at Indy those last two years? Because I can't find it.

Also, I believe you sold your truck to Kelly Thomas, correct? Kelly qualified at .947 under the index last year at Mission. Granted, it's not 1.95 under the old indexes, but it's still pretty good.
