A perspective by Bruce Simmons
It was one thing to swap points with the 2 and 77 teams and Penske's blind faith in Sam Hornish Jr., but has anyone thought about how this point swap really affects Kurt Busch's 2 team?
Points dictate garage stalls. Busch's team might not make the cut to get a garage stall during the first five races.
Busch will be "outside" of the top 35 in points, but he is the most recent champion so he is in the first 5 races, no issues.
They'll be going through tech last and may not get garage stalls at a couple of the races.
This was, as they put it, the best move for the organization and the 2 team did know what they were getting into, but for the consummate Kurt Busch fan, this must be killing you! Sorry.
