    I know that's it been around for 50+ years but no one was doing it on late model until 2 years ago. I didn't just get into racing last week.

      Didn't say you got into it last week. But you may not know what you think you know. No amount of experience can tell you what is under every car.

      And, have you tested added LR mass? I have. You might be surprised at the level of gains possible.

        As a matter of fact I have tested with I wasn't impressed but then again im not a hard on the gas driver. If anything it hurt entry featuring the car didn't want to turn in and cause the car to want to over shoot the entry. Never claimed to be a know it all but I do no exactly what the Rumley device was used to accomplish and it was used in company with LR mass.

          of all the years the 6 car has been around it has always been a strong car but i have never known it to be on tour very much at all but when they showed up at a track they were very competitive.

            I don't know what people expected from JD this season. The way I understand it he joined with BWR to build up a program. When was the last time BW race cars ran with the leaders? When O'Neal won Lucas?

            Of course that is making excuses for JD's lack of wins thus far, but plenty of drivers have had long winless streaks recently and we only question their skill in jest. Drivers have down years. As Shannon Babb said recently, the sport humbles you. Owens, O'Neal, Lannigan, McCreadie...heck even Moyer and Bloomer had less than stellar years.

            JD is a fine driver. Maybe he never has seasons like '015-016 again, but if never reaches those heights again I'm sure he'll have a fine career for as long as he wants to drive.

Only the lazy and the idiots, fascists, socialists or communists fear the smart and/or educated. It was an ingenious tool, not magic and that's all. The Rumley Rule is something to pacify the fears of the stupid and those already in a position of strength, it only hurts and limits those with limited budgets and fertile minds who can think outside the box and for themselves.

                They feel better about teams building crazy shocks for $5k to capture a small piece of the magic. Out of sight, those without it don't know and don't cry.
