Robbie Reiser's final crew chief duties will be at Homestead
In surprising news, Robbie Reiser, who has been Kenseth's crew chief since entering the Cup series and before in the Busch Series, is going to do his final crew chief duties at Homestead on Sunday.
Reiser will still be at Roush Fenway though, moving up to General Manger, a position held now by Max Jones, Jones will move over to Yates Racing next season as their General Manager. Resier said he was ready to move on to the next challenge and is happy with being able to spend more time with his family. It's not that he doesn't like being a crew chief, but he does want to spend more time with his family and feels that this will give him that opportunity.
No news on who will replace him as Kenseth's crew chief next season. Let the speculation begin.
I think that while he'll still be at Roush Fenway, it'll be a bittersweet day for him and Kenseth on Sunday.
Your thoughts?

Kenseth has never been one of my favorite drivers,but you can't deny that guys talent...you don't get to be nascar champion by accident..I don't know if there's more to that story about his crew chief leaving,but in most cases there is...either way,I believe it will affect him..how could it not? That's the only crew chief he's had..

not totally true e-nation;If you remember the start of this season,Robbie was suspended 6 races. And Matt won his only race this year with a stand in crew chief.With Robbie as GM he won't be any farther away.
