    The way I read it, he swapped Bradsear for the longhorn he had been running..

    The picture on the Rocket Twitter page says Welcome Back. The car says Bob Cullen racing. There is another car in the background I'm assuming is the old one with Arnie on it.

    Did they swap just 1 car each or did they do 2? I know duck had like 3 cars but not sure if they were all the same.

    Didn't the same thing happen between Arnie and Terry Casey?

    Might want to say a little prayer for Arnie. Tough times.

    Stage 4 isn't good and very good reason to pull sponsorship

    Not 100%, but I'd say 2 if Shirley/Cullen had 2.. Figure the duck could bounce/receive more info running longhorns in their part of the country so to speak, and Shirley has history with rocket...

    Idk what super duck was thinking when he switched to rocket. Must of had sour taste in his mouth at the time for longhorn.

    I agree, I don't know if lack of results on the WoO tour by Shirley had anything to do with it as Arnie stated in the dirtondirt article with Kevin Kovac earlier this season that the championship was the goal. Over 240 points and not even midway through the season certainly left that situation all but impossible. One win on the tour and back in 8th place may have been the clincher. More importantly thoughts and prayers to Arnie at this time of his life. My dad died of the same thing so I have an idea what he is going through. Keep fighting Arnie!

    Well, he shut down the business for now and is not taking orders. So there's loss of income as well as not much point in advertising. But we can only speculate. Those in the know aren't saying much apparently.

    Good luck Arnie!

    Prayers go out to Arnie and the best of luck for Shirley.
