    He is a racer.The first time I saw him was at Cleveland Speedway (that's in Tennessee)several years ago at The Gobbler.I had never heard of him,he had problems in qualifying and had to run a B main.He made a helluva run but missed a transfer spot. I noticed him that night and he didn't even transfer.Oh yeah,0 UMP points were offered.

    Look a cherry picker is a high dollar team that will travel 5 or 6 hrs for 2k rather than go 3 or 4 hrs to a 10k+ race.... To me Rusty is a regional driver racing for CJ.... isnt that what the subject of this discussion is about? CJs cars?

    Me personally I don't care where he races, I think a guy should go where he will make money, my problem is all these people that act like these cars are top level cars and they are back on top because of local wins. These people don't need to post every time he wins a local show, I think it hurts more that it helps. Now If he goes out and wins a handful of tough races then yeah that is something to gloat about but until then......

    He is beating guys with equal or better equipment. What do you want him to do? He isn't being fed trick products and Rumley device replacements from manufacturers like your favorite Lucas or WoO guy.

    Those romley tricks and other products aren't detected very often racing for cherry's. Amen to your post tho.

    Like I said in my post that you clearly didn't understand is that I don't blame him for picking and choosing where he can win and what makes the most sense for their budget but him winning these local shows and then goes to some stiff competition races and doesn't make the A main three straight nights doesn't put these cars back on the map. You have no clue how these cars are being set up now if you think they are still running Rumley device replacements.

    I have plenty of clues. People have not forgotten what they learned. Once you know what is wrong with something, you continue to find ways to fix it. Even if stupid rules keep knocking them down.

    Let me ask you this, if you are from his region, and you say you are a racing fan, who from this area do you like? Who from this area has wins of substance? The other disrespectful thread you posted you insinuated winning at Oakshade was easy? Is winning a local show at I 55 easy? Is winning a special at Mansfield easy? Peoria local show easy? Is winning an ALMS show at Eldora easy. Quincy local show on Sundays easy? Are any of those wins considered Cherry picking? I just don't understand how you can belittle any of these accomplishments. Who else from that area can match his resume? Five ALMS Championships? Seven Oakshade Track Championships? An UMP National Championship? Not even Kris Patterson, who is a DLM Hall of famer, could win a National Championship. What other race team from his area has accomplished so much? On a local or regional level?

    You say you want to "bring reality to the thread"? Not even close. Hatered has altered your preception of reality. It's called delusional. It's not other people, it's you!

    I'll wait for your next hate filled fact less response.

    there is nothing wrong with this thread, whats wrong is all the critics posting, i understand some of you have harsh feelings for this guy for some reason but if you dont agree with the thread, then dont post, me personally, i dont care if there wasnt but 5 cars there, he won, and i highly doubt he or CJ gives two sh!ts what the critics on here think. JMHO.......

    Usually the hate for a driver comes from that driver doing things like driving dirty or breaking rules or even simply winning most races entered. Rusty hasn't done any of this that I'm aware of. I don't get the hate thrown at him???

    It may sell a few Rayburns in the Midwest, but teams aren't "coming back" en masse until a Rayburn wins a pile of Summernats, WoO or Lucas races. To even have the chance to do that, they're going to have to run a pile of those races. That's not Rusty's style.
    Without the driver and the tricks of the day from the car winning the races, they just paid up for a cheap imitation. Lol
