      Threads like these are what the 4m forum should be and what make it interesting. Can I get an Amen?
      I agree. No name calling or talking about anything that isn't about racing.

          When these new cars retail for $42,000 for a roller, just about everybody has to make them last.

            Same video bloomquist says he's got a car 3 years old. Why believe one but not the other? Once you figure a car out drive it til it's not winning or trashed. jmo

              Isn't Dustin Linville's car pretty old? I believe he has sold 2 newer ones and has that old one running pretty good.

                I think Linville has a 2011 car. He sold the 14 swartz and the new pierce he had earlier this year.

                The old green car that Feger ran is a 2011 pierce car. He had more success in it than anything he's had in the last year or so. Tim Lance has been driving it some this year.

                  Of course there are, but in this case it does him no good to lie. He doesn't give a sh!t wether anyone believes she is not a virgin, and instead is Jenna Jameson. Basically telling you she fits like a glove, well not OJ's glove.
                  Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

It's pretty obvious it's working pretty good, and C&Bfan is right.....they're gonna ride that horse till it drops!
                    Thank you and exactly my point.

                      No. Actually, that would be a very solid sales pitch.

                        They could be like one of the other chassis builders and every other week say "We got a new piece" to sell cars. Making customers think they need the new favor of the month. I talk to Josh and all of his crew at the track and I don't see any reason for them to lie about that. One of the WOO regulars that runs a different chassis told me he has watched Josh and crew all year and they hardly make any changes. If they were trying to lie to sell more cars wouldn't they say they got something new every week.

                              Seems like Lanigan uses the "got a new piece" term quite often

                                Man, you got a hard on for Rocket, so be it, I just don't see him fibbing about it. Word would get out pretty quick if they are one in done junk.
