Well it appears that for being in just his second season, Joey is off to a great start and better then we have seen from others in the sophomore season (Kahne and Hamlin). My hat is off to this young kid for not being afraid to race up there with the big boys and from his racing on the track, he is doing it cleaner and better then a lot of the veteran drivers. I truly enjoy Joey being from Connecticut as that is where I reside so it is a boost for the state, just wish it helped with all of the taxes this state poses on us...LOL, just kidding Governor Rell. Not only can this kid drive, he has one of the best crew chiefs out there in Greg Zipadelli, I mean look what Zippy did for Tony Stewart and there were times that Tony and Greg did not see eye to eye but as we all know Tony had his temper tantrums in his early days but it was Greg that brought him back to earth. Zippy is truly a bonus for Joey and the two are really working well both on and off the track. With all the hype of the Daytona 500 winner and the Jimmie Johnson show, Joey is flying under the radar and sits 8th in the points standings. Yes, it is only 3 races into the season but this young kid is off to a fantastic start. Joey, keep doing what you are doing and race like there is no tomorrow.
