Robbie Reiser, who has been #17-Matt Kenseth’s crew chief since his debut in 1999, laughed over talk that he could become a general manager at Roush Racing. Not that he wouldn’t want the job, but he knows that decision belongs to Jack Roush. “That’s Matt Kenseth-Greg Biffle talking in the media program,” Reiser said Oct. 8. “I’ve been hired to be a crew chief and that’s what I do. That’s a question you need to ask Jack. I can’t answer that.” Reiser won the Cup title in 2003 with Kenseth.(SceneDaily.com)
