    It had a diamond badge on it at the dtwc. This is off of the diamond race cars Facebook page.

    Rocket builds a handful of mods each year too.

    ThrownDirts really fell behind the times. My brother had one as his first in like 07 maybe? Just not good. Ruhlman is the Rocket XR1 modified guru.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

    Two brothers ran an xr1 mod for a while too I’m pretty sure

    I hope they do. Would help them both I think.

    Kryptonite is quickly gaining steam in the central Illinois area. Aside from Weisser, I believe the kid (Chasteen jr.) who won just about everything at Peoria this year is in one, and I am aware of another new one that will show up in the area next season as well. Blaze Burwell (Mt. Vernon) is a dealer for them...

    They built one. Junior Nolan has/had it. The chassis take way too long to build and it would gum up the XR1 assembly line. Several builders buy the XR1 rear clip and build their own for customers.

    They definitely build a way better and safer piece than some of the stuff that was coming out of there a few years back. Like Tyler said in victory lane though they are a little one dimensional as far as struggling on the big and fast type tracks. Very sporty on stop and go

    What is an XR1 modified? Do they buy an XR1 minus front stub?

    Pretty sure Derek Losh who won the Modified section of Gateway was in a XR1 Modified... Not sure if its a Ruhlman or not. Usually real competative cars in Indiana
