I can't figure it out we're just going to have to let Scott Bloomquist find their advantage.

It would be all fine and dandy if it were their favorite driver doing all of this winning I'm sure.
One of the reasons I don't have Facebook, Twitter, etc. I don't see how this can help you sell tickets, you go wanting to see great racing. When you got one guy pretty well stinking them up, I can't see that helping you sell tickets.
The same whining happened when Moyer, Bloomer, Owens, etc. got on a roll. It's mostly because of the social media craze. Now everyone can complain and moan, including us.
Kevin is a smart guy applying all his knowledge and obviously thinking outside the box. Will they possibly rewrite the rule book again, who knows? He's on a roll and I'm anxious to see who can catch him. Bloomer seems to be close, but not close enough. JD n Kevin are still faster than everyone. He wins the World 100, and it is IMO the greatest season ever. I'm going, so I hope not. I'd rather see a surprise winner than JD, Bloomer, etc.
Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

But I don't want to see our sport come to that. It's already expensive enough.
From what I heard. They banned Bloomquist from using a certain type of shocks at the end of last year. Because the shocks cost so much. Davenport better enjoy this year.

Jimmy Owens probably wins that race last night. If he didnt spin out in lap traffic. But he did and Jd won.

If it was easy, everyone would do it. Even all Engineers are not created equal. I've seen some Shade tree engineers that where worth more than some of the schooled ones. One thing is certain. What comes around, goes around. As we have seen from the past, any advantage is short lived. The 6 team should enjoy this while it lasts.
I think this is good for the sport. Who is going to stay home the night Superman gets whooped. If you have Heros, you have to have Villains. Johnathon will be a Hero till the Boo birds come out. It's always been this way even before Media.

How do you jd was running at only 80%? Are you in his pit crew? You have no way of knowing . If Owens car wouldnt have gotten better in the long run.

LOL I think your wrong the data is already there , if the rumors are true it helped speed up there setups BIG DEAL , I remember when Bloomquist and Moyer were bringing shock machines to the track and building shock dynos to test them . I see the Rumley team building off what they have already learned this year , its not some magical device thats manipulating something like Bloomquist , Lanigan and others did .
Its not like there doing what Bloomquist was , using a shock that could be manipulated during a race which in my opinion is ridiculous . Bloomquist has drove the cost of this sport up more than ANYONE and now he is whining about Kevin Rumley . Its really funny if you think about it .
In the words of Allen Iverson in a "Practice" interview , were talking about data here , data something that any one of them can acquire .
I saw a go pro camera pointed under the chassis of Bobby Pierce's racecar during a heat , you know what they aquired some data BIG DEAL . The more you learn the more you earn .Bloomquist is just mad that he can't apply data the way Rumley is .

Yes he is, and yes he does........everybody doesn't do All there racing on YB, SOME ACTUALLY GO TO A TRACK.
Cracks me up to see how little that people really know about a subject prior to posting.

He has said several times this year in interviews on DoD that Kevin Rumley told him if its a 50 lap race ride for the first 20 laps let the fuel load burn off so you don't hurt the right rear and then go all out . If its 100 ride the first 40 . Thats what they have been doing all year and its working .

I've been waiting for this breakout by JD for a while. I remember one of the first times I saw him run was an SAS race at Toccoa, he ran 2nd to Madden in a Rayburn with a home built limited engine... Gave Madden all he could stand too! After that I paid close attention to him, you could see the potential was there, just needed a little seasoning and the right opportunity and BAMMM!!! 2015.... His stint with CBR just wasn't the right match for him, but he learned a great deal while he was with BWRC. I realize this streak won't last forever, but its nice to see somebody you know has special talent be recognized on the big stage.

A challenge for bloomer is good. Its going push bloomquist to even research develop even harder. Guess he has just been lucky for the last 30 years
