Knoxville Top 10

**BTExpress** · 09-18-2016, 12:34 PM

Mindless fact of the day: Capitol Bloomquist Pierce Capitol Moyer MB Customs Longhorn Rocket XR1 Black Diamond Club 29. The chassis manufacturers of last night's Top 10.

OBSERVATIONS:

> It just goes to show with all the talk on 4M about which chassis is better, that maybe it just doesn't matter. You put a good driver in a good car and they will perform. In my humble opinion the chassis talk is highly over rated. But then what would we have to argue about???? Ah that's right: Bloomquist, Davenport, Pierce, Richards, Drugs,Tire Scandals, Lawsuits, LOLMS vs WoO.......never mind. Something to think about.

Never seen so many cars run out of gas!

**old fan** · 09-18-2016, 12:45 PM

Yeah that kinda helps

I find astounshing. How many ran out of gas. Did some drivers take a risk and not have full tanks of gas?

I guess you don't buy one of those 50k motors for their gas mileage! LOL

**old fan** · 09-18-2016, 01:00 PM

Yep and a 950 cfm will get you great gas mileage also

Sorry but Kyle Bronson is in a new xr1 rocket

**kidrock** · 09-18-2016, 01:56 PM

I'm guessing one of 2 things either the tank wasn't full from the beginning or maybe how the carbs were set up.

**Cardirt0** · 09-18-2016, 01:57 PM

All I know it $uck that ERB went from 5 to 9 in a 1/2 lap from no gas...1/2 cup of gas was all he needed...

"Sorry but Kyle Bronson is in a new xr1 rocket"

Nothing to be sorry about......just proves my point even more how diversified last night's top 10 really was with chassis manufacturers............ 9 different chassis out of the top 10!

**old fan** · 09-18-2016, 02:16 PM

They all copied rayburn lol

**plunks7** · 09-18-2016, 10:37 PM

Nothing was better to make the Weekend Great. Than having Richards and Moyer run out of fuel!!!!! Excellent in fact. Along with Marlar winning.

**BadlandsBandit12** · 09-18-2016, 11:35 PM

Richards and Moyer running out of fuel wouldn't have matter if they did or not!!!

It was Marlar's race to win!!!

**Centeroff** · 09-18-2016, 11:55 PM

If it wouldn't have been a caution fest the race was Scott's. I'm glad for Marlar but all it would have took was a 20 lap green flag run and the zero adds to the resume. He went a little hard on the lf tire or it was curtains.

Scott gained positions on the restarts, especially the earlier ones. I would agree that the later cautions prolly hurt him, but I think that bashing the rr 1/4 panel in on a lappers nose hurt him also. He didn't have near the speed or dominance I expected to see, but a good run none the less.

When if's and but's become candy and nuts we will all have a Merry Christmas. The last 16 laps were ran under green. If Josh doesn't run out of gas, Scott finishes 3rd.
