    Default Bobby Pierce not planning to run a national tour in 2019?

    A tweet from Pierce seems to indicate he will not follow a national series

    I think it was pretty obvious he wasn't going to run a national tour.

    Yessir.....the New Zealand trip is a no brainer, that's an awesome experience for the young man.

    great for him and something else I'm envious of.
    Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

    He will probably win almost every summer nationals race. Throw in weekly bonuses and points fund money and he can make decent coin not going far from the house.

    lol..........

    I wonder what Babb, Heckenest, Feger and Shirley think about that? Then add in a couple others like Erb Jr, Moyer and Bshepp who will hit a few of them.

    Sure he can do what he wants, he is done it before and won it a few times, He also has done the New Zealand thing too. One thing he hasn't done won a major championship in WoO or Lucas Oil. Summer nationals don't cut anymore. That series is a dinosaur and caters to illinois drivers. They are lucky if they get a full field of cars. He had his chance to race with Dunn Benson again and he said no. To beat the best he must race the best. But sounds like he is cherry picking. Good luck!

    why because it is truth, I honestly thought he was good racing with Lucas Oil. That series was phenomenal the way it was last year. , Well maybe he wasn't up for the task this year and will try next year.

    Aint gna get no argument from me. I want to see it too, mainly because I know its feasible. Problem is that a tour is not econamically feasible for his family team on money spent vs money won compared to his outlaw schedule. His profit margin will be much higher...not gna blow money just to shut up a couple of 4m clowns...

    Bobby's already beat the best, yes he has not won a woo or lucas championship but, to say he hasn't beat the best is just plain wrong. Yes he is going to be cherry picking where he races but, he is also going to be racing at some of the bigger races as well so, he's not ducking the competition just being smart about making a living racing and there are plenty of big races close to his home to cash in on. yes he had a chance to race with Dunn Benson for another year so, what's that tell us? That they like what he did last year.
