Mr. Dewhurst,
Totally off topic and I didn't see the broadcast, but what exactly is your objection to DW's statement? Back in the late 70's or early 80's when DW was driving (and winning) for Budweiser, Junior Johnson's crew in fact changed an engine during a Cup race at North Wilkesoboro in less than 11 minutes. Car and Driver had them re-do the feat (with a cold engine to keep from scalding someone) for an article and they completed the task in just over seven minutes. Shortly after that NASCAR outlawed changing engines during a race because of safety concerns.
You may indeed have valid arguments at times, but your lack of historical accuracy and grammatical errors ("writting"?) often tend to cast you in a Berg-ish light.
