I’ll bite…
I have no idea what RTJ’s situation is with crew help. If he doesn’t have a ton of help, then I would wonder if the amount of prep work involved with racing SLM (competitively at the Lucas Oil level) vs Mods (even at the USMTS level) is what would be the difference maker? Not to mention, that USMTS national points fund ain’t to shabby this year.
Gustin has always been at the mercy of a sponsor, that family has been broke because of racing for 3 generations. They are AWESOME people and talents but spend it all on the track from what I can tell.
He had Gressel, which went sour for whatever reason, then pieced it all together for a while before this deal. I can see him sticking with the SLM deal for a while as long as he can find a backer. He probably couldn't swing USMTS on his own dime either and he's never raced the local IMCA stuff for any period of time either.
I am curious if RTJ and SSI still have in their plans to develop the Dark Horse Chassis. Both very talented drivers and I hope they can make this work.

That was Taylons deal I believe. Ssi just hired Anthony burroughs
Ricky has his house in Iowa for sale & is planning on moving closer to SSI. My belief is that Burns will stand behind Ricky as long as he continues to run competitively.
