This. One thing i always respected about Seth Neiman was that he let the #45 be a full-on GTE competitor and ran a second, slow car for himself. He knew his limits and knew that he wasn't ever going to win the title.

Jon Bennett however was good enough to win some PC titles ... a Pro-Am class, of course. IMO, he is not going to get the team to any P-class titles .... even if he is a good driver, he will always be giving away that little bit.

But ... it's not my money, so it is easy to spend. A whole 'nother crew, transporter, lodging, fuel and food, all that .... But Core really cannot hope to win a title anyway until it signs a DPi contract, so i guess all my musings are moot.
