Stormy and Johnny Scott chassis change

Supposedly they've jumped ship from the Tennessee compound, taken their money up the road to Shinnston and ordered 4 new cars.

I can’t believe it took this long. I’d say it’s true.

Scott is sitting on a great opportunity if he’d get his crap together. But he hasn’t, and they aren’t churning out new cars.

With the money they were spending, they shoulda been at the top with support. Don’t think that was nearly the case. We know Rocket has great support, plus a bunch of guys you can bounce ideas off of.

Good for them, hope they do better.

They aren’t afraid of throwing money around that’s for sure. But I heard this a couple weeks ago wasn’t sure if it were true or not. Can’t say I blame them for doing it.

Scott brothers appear to be well-funded. Is there a family business involved with their racing?

[Barbecueboy]

Their results won't change.

Grandma is a big time rancher. Chassis change is true.

Not sure in this case but sometimes its the Indian, not the arrow....

Why not? They can wheel cars. Personally I think Johnny is better. They are just new to late models and need support.

Stormy improved as the year went on last season. I can see him being a threat down the road if he gets the rockets to his liking.

With Bloomquist swapping series he would no longer be in the pits for support if their intent is to stay with Lucas, might be a consideration. Seem to recall they changed around some with their modified programs as well.

I agree with everything you said.

[Tireguy17]

There seems to be a perception from some that Rocket teams "share" info and help each other. Is that really true?

I tend to be a believer that a good driver/team will make any chassis fast (Owens, Davenport, T-Mac to an extent, Madden, McDowell), while others lack any consistency and have ups and downs no matter what chassis they are in.

I don't expect Johnny and Stormy to be any faster in the long run in Rockets.

The terms Bloomer and support do not belong in the same sentence. Scott might offer some set up knowledge at the track but they have no factory support available to drivers. Scott, Chris, Cody and the gang had more closed door meetings in Florida then they had top 5 finishes. Wonder if the Scotts or Fergy were privy to those?

They can wheel the heck out of cars no doubt.....I just don't think switching chassis right now this early in their late model program is going to improve their results one bit this year or even next.

Thus my statement.....their results won't change.

I don’t know how much thier results will improve, but I do look for them to become a little more consistent.

think johnny had a 4th place in the world last year, might want to bring one bloomer car to eldora in the trailer

Last I heard stormy planned on running Lucas and johnny was just gonna run wherever. They have became pretty good buddies with terbo over the last few months as well.

That was stormy

[WisWildManFan]

yep my bad, think johnny made the race if not mistaken

[gumby_32d]

I called this one in the 2020 prediction thread that someone would leave bloomquist cars.... I thought McDowell would be the one leaving first though..
