Brian Birkhofer 2019 plans?

[thexfactor0210]

Has anyone heard that he and Jason Rauen have split? Was really hoping to see Birky out more this year.

So Casey skyberg has a hauler to take his stuff to the track and Tim mccreadie does not??? That sounds weird to say.

And that's not meant to slight Casey in any way whatsoever , good for him.

Hate the birky thing didn't pan out, still think he will pop up this year when you least expect it.

Jason runs his race team like he runs his race track. Into the ground,all show and know go!

I heard at the Wild West Shootout that the plan was to start the season there BUT that Jason & Brian have had a falling out & the 2019 plans were scrapped. Jason sold the hauler that Brian was to use to Casey Skyberg. Skyberg had the hauler in Arizona for the Shootout.

Jason also bought another white hauler right after he sold the grey one. It's been all over Brian's fan page they have split. But nothing has came from anyone with the last name birkhofer.

100% Correct Old Dirt! Pretty sad!

[thexfactor0210]

Anyone know why they split?

[BadlandsBandit12]

Probably because they didn't' see eye to eye on business, always happens with people!

[Scott Boesel]

I have always thought Brian would be a good fit for Moring Motorsports seeing how they both want to run a very limited schedule

Steel business?

Aluminum...crushing empty 12 oz-ers in the shop

[TackyTracker]

Birky is a crown jewel guy every year.. just not sure which one it will be

[JMDraceHD98]

I love rumors....maybe he will be in the famous flyin' 50 for the eckrich family? lol

I love how teams send out detailed press releases and do interviews with the media when these teams are formed and they're still getting along with their driver, then when they split they don't feel the need to issue a press release or anything. People have been buying Birky gear all winter long for the 2019 season and some of those people probably still have no idea that the deal fell through. They don't have to get into all of the dirty details, but just let people know as a courtesy.

I'm not sure this is entirely true. I have no doubt that Moring is financially behind the Black diamond house car team to some extent, but I don't think his operation has been taken over by Stuckey and turned into the house car team.
For the past several years Ronnie has been taking care of Morings race team, with drivers including Wendall Wallace, Earl Pearson Jr and most recently Jared Landers. I believe Morings team is still intact and will make limited appearances this year like they have over the last several years, even before there was a Black Diamond house car.

This is what Ronnie himself told me at last year's Wild West Shootout. Maybe he didn't know or I misunderstood.
