        Those cars are only good for one year, then it's time to buy new again. #keepinthecostdown

          All cars are like that now. If someone is winning big races in a car thats more than two years old, or has over 45 races on it then they really have their stuff together. EPJ's guy told me at Tyler County that they were running their 3rd new car of the year. Every time O'neal or Lanigan run good they talk about having a new car as well. I guess its the type of tubing most are using, but everyone in the pits will tell you there is nothing like having a fresh car.

                  SIDEWAYS, actually as I understand it, it's the opposite. The XR1 are built out of a new tubing that flexes and does NOT last as long. From what I've heard, they are fast as heck out of the box, but they wear out in a hurry.

                      Lanigans newest car is made of the same tubing that the xr1 is made of, i think it's the only one of its kind. As far as I know, only one longhorn is built out of that same stuff, and it just won at Charlotte over the weekend. Pearson had one car that got bent earlier this year, and from the news I got a couple weeks ago. Since they got that car back, it gets better everytime it hits the track. They also got a new black diamond at the beginning of the year. They only had 2 longhorn cars.

                      I believe that tubing is called Docol, it's made overseas.

                        I believe there will be a docol car from a small time builder hitting the track in my area next year

                            Like him or hate him but Bloomquist cars don't wear out unless they get wrecked. The most repeatable chassis from car to car ever made.
