That is as true as it gets right there. Exactly why I am still in "timeout" till June 1st. Simply because my opinion didn't go with the "Powers to Be"......

Been there, done that........more than once! lol

Honestly, I didn't see anything you should have got banned for!

Wow, 2015 JD made well over a cool $500,000.

IMO, the new ICON chassis seems to be running fine. He has won several big crate races in it (somewhat level field) and his average finishes in SLMs are getting better by the month. I believe the issue is more the engine program. No offence to Hatfield (and their fans), but I'd like to see him running one of the major SLM builders (Clements, Cornett, Pro Power or Durham). There is a reason they are popular with the all the major teams....

My post may have contained a bit of sarcasm.

The "rumley Device" was nothing more than a travel limiter snd smoke screen. Rumley and Davenport were the first to start adding unsprung weight to LR. lets not forget that he won 15+ races after the device was banned. Everyone else just caught up on the heavy LR. He turned down the 116 because he can actually have a career in racing with Barry that doesn't involve just driving and that's a fact.

That stuff has been around longer than you think. And pretty sure the 6 was not the source.

I know that's it been around for 50+ years but no one was doing it on late model until 2 years ago. I didn't just get into racing last week.

Didn't say you got into it last week. But you may not know what you think you know. No amount of experience can tell you what is under every car.

And, have you tested added LR mass? I have. You might be surprised at the level of gains possible.

As a matter of fact I have tested with I wasn't impressed but then again im not a hard on the gas driver. If anything it hurt entry featuring the car didn't want to turn in and cause the car to want to over shoot the entry. Never claimed to be a know it all but I do no exactly what the Rumley device was used to accomplish and it was used in company with LR mass.

[buster83]

of all the years the 6 car has been around it has always been a strong car but i have never known it to be on tour very much at all but when they showed up at a track they were very competitive.

I don't know what people expected from JD this season. The way I understand it he joined with BWR to build up a program. When was the last time BW race cars ran with the leaders? When O'Neal won Lucas?

Of course that is making excuses for JD's lack of wins thus far, but plenty of drivers have had long winless streaks recently and we only question their skill in jest. Drivers have down years. As Shannon Babb said recently, the sport humbles you. Owens, O'Neal, Lannigan, McCreadie...heck even Moyer and Bloomer had less than stellar years.

JD is a fine driver. Maybe he never has seasons like '015-016 again, but if never reaches those heights again I'm sure he'll have a fine career for as long as he wants to drive.

JD won lots races before the 6, He's won races after the 6, He's won races before and after "The Rumley Device" in and out of the 6. Far too much is made of the "Rumley Device" it just gives naysayers something to point to and say, "Ah Hah!". Only the lazy and the idiots, fascists, socialists or communists fear the smart and/or educated. It was an ingenious tool, not magic and that's all. The Rumley Rule is something to pacify the fears of the stupid and those already in a position of strength, it only hurts and limits those with limited budgets and fertile minds who can think outside the box and for themselves.

Davenport will return to the limelight again, with shock and awe...

well said MS , probably the best post on this thread , only thing i cant understand is why ban it , once it was exposed what they were doing and it was retaliative inexpensive , why not let every one use it like all the other advancements over the years...........

They feel better about teams building crazy shocks for $5k to capture a small piece of the magic. Out of sight, those without it don't know and don't cry.
