I agree with you T-Mac is poised for a spectacular year. The only thing I would add is I don't think he was effected by the suspension rule change in 16', the Rumley device was only ever on JD's car, the other Longhorns like Weaver, Madden and others did NOT have any special devices on the LR, the Longhorns were just good anyway. Best of luck T-Mac in 2017!Politically Incorrect.

The rule changes killed exactly 1 car. Not all Longhorns.Originally posted by NY DIRT View PostNow the season is over. I just did a 5 hour energy drink. My mind is racing and I am sitting in front of the keyboard so here we go. I am going to give an opinion and make a prediction about T Mac.
First, last year at this time T Mac,s race team ordered 2 new Longhorn cars and I thought that this season was going to be something special. Then rules were changed that took the advantage away that the Longhorn cars had Timmy was sitting a day late and a dollar short. Yes, he had a solid season finishing 3rd in points in the toughest touring series in the universe, but he NEVER had the best car on the track and he new it.
Then after the Lucas Oil Series was over, He got together with the Longhorn people to possibly be the driver of the House car. They built a new machine, tested it at The dirt track at Charlotte and at Cherokee Speedway and really dialed it in.
They raced the car 5 times against the top competition in the country at 2 different speedways with several fast times in qualifying, 2 wins and 2 seconds.
Now going into the 2017 season, McCreadie is officially the Longhorn house car driver. The only rule changes have been safety features which have nothing to do with the handling of the car. He has driven the machine and knows it is a winning race car.
I predict that T Mac will have his best season since winning the WOO point championship. I purchased one of his die-cast models of his winning car that season and I am waiting to buy a die-cast model of this latest black Longhorn beauty whenever available...Modern Day Spec Wedge Racing

I agree it effected them, I'm not convinced its why they struggled in 16'. They had tons of bad luck, all the breaks that went their way in 15' blew up in their faces in 16'. Brakes issues, engine woes, crew chief burnt out and so goes the downward spiral and they still finished second in the points, so... That would be a dream year for any other team, to run second on Lucas tour behind Bloomquist.Originally posted by MasterSbilt_Racer View PostThe rule changes killed exactly 1 car.

They lost speed. I didn't say they had a bad year. But they sure ran bad at times.Originally posted by Stede Bonnet View PostI agree it effected them, I'm not convinced its why they struggled in 16'.

Would it be ok to run second to Tony Stewart?Originally posted by TS FAN View PostDream for a team to run second to Bloomie? Now that is downright funny, I must say.
I mean, if you're going to be a second in a series, mine as well be behind Bloomer or Richards. It's nothing to hang your head on, or to skip the banquet and go fishing.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

What's the big deal if he decided to go fishing instead of going to a banquet? Banquets are like award shows on tv," BORING " and all you hear is people say thanks to everyone's sponsors, mother, brother, your brothers girlfriend, etc., etc.. In JD's case would you prefer him to go there and say thanks for the f--king rule changes that you made because I was dominant the year before.Originally posted by chupp n bloomer fan View PostWould it be ok to run second to Tony Stewart?

Did Bloomer go to the Lucas banquet the year he was running like garbage and dropped off the tour in June and kicked everyone else off Team Zero?

I don't really understand why anybody cares if he was at the banquet. I mean, it's not like they invited him to Christmas dinner and he didn't show.Originally posted by Barbecueboy View PostDavenport flipped em the bird............that's about all it is.
