Exactly Klem, common sense has no place on 4M.
I’m just curious if RTJ and his crew have gotten his car going this good with or without Kevin Rumleys help? Or are they not sharing information with the rest of the longhorn family? This could be a devastating blow to all the Rumley nut huggers on 4M and DoD if they’ve gotten this good on their own!
I'm surprised that car has survived such rough treatment.
I dont know for sure but I would say they found something on there own or jd and tmac would b right up there w them. I bet theres a top secret find there not saying anything about. It doesnt matter where he qualifys or starts hes always in top 3 or winning.
Flathead,
Rumley is still looking for his second hit.
"For years the rule was if you are the reason for the caution, you went to the tail and everyone else was lined up by the running order on the last completed lap."
Quite simple and that what it should still be! This absolutely ridiculous "blend" rule looks like something only the idiotic U.S. Government could come up with so the government, apparently, has its claws in the dirt racing world.
I'm thinkin the Kentucky Colonel should have gone to the tail.
I have to agree with you. You bring out the caution you go to the tail pretty simple if you ask me. Honestly though I'm glad for RTJ it turned out like it did. He had the fastest car and it would have been a shame for him to lose this one knowing he had the best car.
Not so sure rtj wouldn’t have won from the tail
Not sure how far they had lapped up to buy that's where he would've restarted had he been sent to the "tail". I also think. He still would've won. I also disagree with where he ended up on the restart with the blend rule he Shirley was never anywhere near him before the yellow.
The blend rule is stupid. Just go to the previous completed lap like the sport did for decades.
There is no good reason for this blend rule. But, the guys in place making these decisions are delusional anyhow. Droop, questionable at best. Aero, on big tracks they must wear blinders, because if you want good racing today the bullring ovals is where it's at.
Note that it's beginning to look like NASCAR rules. Soon, every bolt on a dirt car will be required to have the same number of threads, equal lengths, etc. - - - with innovation in the trash.
