2003 recap
The good: Sadler's got himself into a situation where he can truly become great. He's with a good team, in good equipment and working with a veteran in Dale Jarrett who has a lot of knowledge to pass along. Add to that Sadler's propensity for qualifying high and you've got the workings of a good season.

The bad: But then you factor in the large gap between the 38 team's qualifying efforts and race-day efforts and you start to realize how frustrating the season was for Sadler, who finished one spot better than he did with the Wood Brothers in 2002. Sadler's nine DNFs weren't all his fault -- and, in fact, he did have more than his share of bad racing luck. Still, there was something amiss with all of Yates Racing last season and Sadler's inaugural run with them wasn't a success.

Key stat: 89.4. That's the percent of total laps run last season that Sadler completed -- an astonishingly low number for such a well-funded team.

2004 outlook
What needs to be done: The team needed to work on chemistry. It believes it has added a lot of high-energy personnel, race trim and superstitions. With a little more luck, and lot more effort, this can be a top-10 team.

Guarantee: Sadler will be grilling up his famous Bologna Burgers for all his friends at his hauler at some point this season.

Prediction: The 38 debut left a lot to be desired, but expect Sadler and Co. to make good on expectations this season.

Did you know: Sadler is a video game fanatic and hosts several drivers every weekend at his motorcoach for some off-track video-game racing.
