    Smart idea by Ganassi to put Montoya and Pruett in the same car- he won't have to worry about Montoya wrecking Pruett.

    ATTITUDE IS THE MUST NECESSARY PART OF A GOOD DRIVER. IF THE ATTITUDE IS BAD THE DRIVER CAN'T DRIVE TO HIS FULL POTENTIAL.

    Juan ia a good driver but you are right Dan he needs an attitude change. Until that takes place he won't be a top Nascar driver. Its to bad cause I think he could be a real asset to the sport. Yea he messes with Pruett again he's lible to belt him one.
