    New crew chief for Kenseth
    From espn.com
    CONCORD, N.C. -- Matt Kenseth has a crew chief change just one week into the new NASCAR season.
    Todd Parrott will replace Drew Blickensderfer atop the No. 17 Ford pit box this weekend at California. Blickensderfer led Kenseth to consecutive wins to start last season, including the Daytona 500.
    The team performance dropped off after the two wins, and Kenseth failed to make the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship for the first time since its 2004 inception.
    Kenseth was eighth in Sunday's season-opening Daytona 500.
    Roush Fenway Racing said in a statement Wednesday that Blickensderfer will be moved to its research and development department.
    Parrott won the 1999 championship with Dale Jarrett.

    Why would they not have made this change months ago? It doesn't make any sense to me. It's not like the end result (8th) of their Daytona outing was awful.

      Kenseth used to have one of the best pit crews around when Robbie Reiser was the crew chief.

        This is enough to keep me off him this weekend. He runs well here normally.

          Didn't Kenseth receive what was once Gordon's Rainbow Warriors a long ways back?

            They use to be the Killer Bees. What are they now? Honey Bees?

              There's something clever here for Bees and Crown Royal. We're missing it. Dammit.

                I know that happened but I thought it was Dale Jarrett who bought them.
