Clint Bowyer is counting the days until he can join a competitive race team.
Once this season ends, Bowyer will move to Stewart-Haas Racing and replace Tony Stewart. His season, and all its frustration, will be over.
Left without a ride after Michael Waltrip Racing folded, Bowyer hitched up with HScott Racing, a low-budget operation. Let's just say the experience opened Bowyer's eyes.
Numbers don't lie. This season, Bowyer has the worst points position (27), average start (30.5) and average finish (23.5) of his career. At 37, he hasn't lost his ability. Bowyer simply doesn't have a competitive car.
