Sounds like it's a 2013 Bloomquist with Longhorn RF & latest birdcages? If it was "designed" in 2013, can't be anything all that special.

Hearing EPJ will be rolling out on the track at Brunswick with a new deal (chassis ).

I am impressed with the attitude of the car in the turns runs straight like a Bloomquist if stormy could make it go what could top level talent do with it he was running down Larson tonight in the heat race Larson was tail wagging and it was on a rail

The geometry isnt that different from 1998. Moving a couple of pieces a half inch is ground breaking. It definitely looks like an old car as far as the cage height.

With that said ---- other than profit, why do “guys” build chassis (of new design) if they are all basically the same geometry wise since 1998????

New Deal you say ? Is that something that Hudson O'Neal had built ?

Lurker,
You can't get exactly what you want, unless you do it yourself. It's also a vanity project. "Can't we all do it better than everyone else?"
The comment about the half inch is that visibly small changes to geometry can make a big difference in function. Despite the increase in efforts to make the cars like spec cars, there is room to still make visibly large changes to the basic suspension layout, but it isn't done. I'm certain there's plenty of need to do so, to actually build a car that considers the absurd difference in ride and race posture, but no large manufacturer has done it yet. No one who copies an existing car ever will.

Think of it as a "2013 Frame" but everything has been relocated or updated to the latest way of thinking. Like Masters said, moving things a 1/2 inch can be ground breaking and if you move everything its a completely different car. A chassis is an interconnected system and just bolting on the same parts Longhorn uses anywhere wouldn't make it a Longhorn or even Longhorn like. If you take the RF leg off a Cheetah and put it on the RF of a Rhino, it ain't gonna make him fast...

It’s basically a street rod version of a 2013 Bloomquist chassis.

an old chassis builder that is gone now , told me once that these things haven't changed that much in years , but you have to have something to sell to survive .....
-
So to recap, Bruce Nunnally of Brucebuilt is building BMF chassis for Cory Hedgec*ck, Sniper Chassis for Ricky Weiss and now Catorgory Five chassis for Stormy Scott. What is stopping each of them from stealing ideas from the others and are the designs that much different?
Bruce is a heck of a fabricator though, and I believe builds his own modified chassis as well.
-
Did the Scott Bros at one time have Bloomquist chassis ? If so they where not doing very well in them. I just don't remember because they switched more than any other team out there.
