    Default Brandon Sheppard at Hagerstown

    I don’t think I’ve ever seen him and/or the Rocket House car team look this bad.... kind of embarrassing

    They can’t qualify at all.

    The main difference I’ve seen in the BShepp’s car this year is the lack of bite coming out of the turns. The last few years, that car would just launch coming out of the turns. It’s really showing up in qualifying and putting him starting farther back in heat races.

    I’m betting that a motor builder change is coming very soon.

    I don't think they qualify very good any way. They just find a way to come from farther back. I'm sure there's countless interviews out there where he's saying he needs to qualify better instead of putting them in a hole early.

    Is it possible they are trying new tricks that are not working at the moment?

    No. Only Bloomquist does that...

    I think they've changed something up. It is the house car, and Mark Richards has never been one to not change things around. I don't think it's a motor issue, if it was and Brandon told Mark that, you would have seen something already.

    That series has been sad for a while... I like Dennis Erb, but he was 4th in points last year. Credit to him for that, but the state of that series is most of why it happened.

    The turning point was when Yung Money stole his soul at Port Royal last year.

    I find it quite satisfying watching him get stomped in Lucas Oil races. If he doesn't qualify near the front, he doesn't finish there. That car needs clean air.

    Looks like you are a poet and didn't know it.

    I bet every time he climbs out of the car, he asks Danny and Mark “do I look just like Larson out there?, am I close enough to the fence?” Poor fella hasn’t been right since port royal last year.

    Oh yea I remember. I also remember everyone driving the mark richards owned car going to win that race too.

    Unfortunately in this business you’re only as good as your last performance.

    I remember bloomquist winning that race too, Bart Hartman, etc.

    I didn’t realize that last years DTWC was sheppards career defining moment.
