So let me get this straight. A ride buyer with an impressive resume from the non-stock car community who can qualify his way into races is a bad thing, yet a ride buyer who did nothing coming through the ranks and DNQd Busch East races is alright?  ::)

Nice work Pierre...Way to run slow in some of the consistently best equipment.....

He was faster than both of his teammates(Scott Speed & Ken Butler III).

Beating Speed is an accomplishment. Beating Ken Butler? Not so much...He did get at least one decent draft lap in, I'll give him that much...

Yeah I know, I'm justing saying that his testing time being slow isn't necessarily his fault since all of the ESR cars didn't do that well.

Then again, all 3 drivers might be around the same skill/experience ratio on the big track as well...I guess we'll see come February...
