Others say talented drivers are going to win races, no matter who they are with. But in the end, neither the driver nor the equipment is the key element to Winston Cup success. Just as neither the quarterback nor the practice facility is what creates winners in football. In both cases, it's teamwork. Communication has become as important as acceleration.
Verbal skills are as important as motor skills.
Not only must the driver, crew chief, car owner and crew members all be on the same page, they must be on the same letter. We all won a bunch of races somewhere to get here. The difference is the team you're with and the people you're with. It's the chemistry, the complete package. That is one of the reasons there is so much movement within Winston Cup.
