I will agree with this. Being heavily involved with that alliance, I think its strength came from the ability of each team to work together so well. Our coaches and drivers already had a lot of experience working with each other, and the result was an alliance greater than the sum of its parts. Also, it certainly was not an easy road to a banner at all.
