Chassis # BR549......correct?

[Barbecueboy]

That be the one......been a lot of good drivers in them bwrc.

[Stede Bonnet]

actually a rayburn can be competive under the right conditions and the right driver

A truer statement has never been made.

You guys forgetting about that black and white #18 BWRC! It was the dominant car in the mid to late 90's!

Bloomers the guy that put Barry on the map!

Barry was on the map long before Bloomquist, you should see all the names on the wall at Barry's, kinda like Rayburn's, the who's who of DLM fame are on those walls and deserve respect, not one liners...

Idk about that...there was a guy named Buck Simmons that drove for Barry before Scott. He did ok. lol

Buck was awesome, a gifted driver and my childhood hero, that I had the pleasure of working with for 2 seasons on the John Deere car.

Why does it matter who put who on the map? He's 65 years old and been in business 40 years,longer than Davenport even been alive. The man loves what he does and has worked with the best of the best in our sport, and that includes Davenport.

My favorite Barry Wright house car driver was probably Jack Pennington, it was fun to see him give Bloomer fits when the HAT tour came thru the Carolina's back then. Most people don't know this but the old Cherokee Speedway(big track) was a bit of an Achilles heel for Bloomer in the late 80's early 90's(Pre-BWRC) and every time Bloomquist came to town either Buck or Jack or Duvall always had his number, it was fun to watch, especially at speeds approaching 150mph! Red/White Tri-City Drywall/Clements/BWRC #41 would be honking down those long straights, cool as a cucumber.

[dirtdobber45]

Wonder why JD went with Barry instead of Weaver? That wouldve been a unstoppable combo

Hes only running a crate car? Shocked in a way

[mndirtman]

Yes, I'm curious as to why JD didn't also go with #116? I would sure of thought that would of been a given being how successful that combination was.

I also now the relationship he had with BWR, so would like to hear some of the reasons...

Mont.

Almost positive that he's running super too. Running a crate in addition. Surprised somewhat that he didn't end up in the 116.

Yeah when I seen that Brandon was going to be in the car it I was sitting here saying what?? Idk maybe Weaver hadnt made up his mind on what he was going to do...silly season lol

[President Clinton]

Maybe he felt it was as time to do it the Wright way?

No hes running the #6 there

I think some are overlooking the helping "develop" a new chassis with Barry. I'm assuming in doing so he's going to get some $$$ from every Icon they build. Plus Barry ain't going to work forever. Might as well get in there and go forward long term with Lance.
