I've seen him at numerous events this year in the midwest.

I think he has spent time with both teams.

While on this subject, I have to laugh at some comments made earlier in the season--can't remember if on this site or others. A number of folks were wondering what was wrong with Logan. I had a good chuckle at the few responses of (and I'll paraphrase) "Well, Bobby isn't wrenching on his car anymore, so that is likely why." Bobby is going to be 82 years old this year. Are they implying Logan's career is doomed, and he'll never be the same if his 82 year old grandpa can't "wrench" on his car anymore? LMAO!

If anyone thinks Bobby's turning wrenches anymore is laughable. He's been a manager basically for these two teams and they both have done well. I'm sure he makes decisions on things on race night whoever he's with that particular night.

Exactly. That's why I said "wrench" on his car. I can't believe there are people out there stupid enough to believe there's no one available that could possibly make viable setup decisions if Bobby Allen isn't there. Don't get me wrong, he's forgotten 1000 times more than I will ever even know, but there's plenty of smart dudes out there that are more than capable of carrying the torch. Logan will be fine.

As evidenced by his recent WOO win and then following it up with a PA speedweek win or was it 2 PA speedweek wins ?

Sat with him in the pit stands for the heat races at Putnamville for the Maverick/IRA Speedweek show.
He was with Jacob and from there they went to HL races in MO.
