Dale Jarrett gets a new crew chief. Again.
Actually, Jarrett gets his old crew chief back.
Todd Parrot is back to calling the shots for the #88 UPS car. Dale Jarrett is my favorite driver and I hope this is the missing link. Because, honestly, Dale performance has been horrible. The only way he gets a decent finish these days, is to make a good pit decision at the end of the race.
Here’s Dales stats for the last 10 years:
| Season | Standing | Poles | Wins | Top 5 | Top 10 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2004 | 15th | 0 | 0 | 6 | 14 |
| 2003 | 26th | 0 | 1 | 1 | 7 |
| 2002 | 9th | 1 | 2 | 10 | 18 |
| 2001 | 5th | 4 | 4 | 12 | 19 |
| 2000 | 4th | 3 | 2 | 15 | 24 |
| 1999 | 1st | 0 | 4 | 24 | 29 |
| 1998 | 3rd | 2 | 3 | 19 | 22 |
| 1997 | 2nd | 2 | 7 | 20 | 23 |
| 1996 | 3rd | 2 | 4 | 17 | 21 |
| 1995 | 13th | 1 | 1 | 9 | 14 |
| Totals | 8.1 avg | 15 | 28 | 133 | 191 |
I’d love to see a return to his former racing ways. Todd may just be what turns it around. Good luck ya old fart.”
