Davenport

And I think Owens, and CBR. There was a few who had them. Not sure all who, but yeah he had that. Funny, no one gave Penske the time of day, then Bloomer starts running Penskes and bam, a sh!tload are running Penskes now.

Depends which shocks you are talking about. Penske owns the inerter patents. CBR certainly didn't have access to that.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Penske has been one of the premier shock manufacturers, in the world, for a long time. They have done more for Bloomer than the other way around. Selling a few dlm shocks isn't going to move their needle.

Where did I say anywhere that Bloomer put Penske on the World racing map? He most certainly turned the late model guys on to Penske. Have you seen how many people are running Penske's in late models now, it's a bunch. Of course they helped out Bloomer more, they agreed to work with him and not tell him to p!ss off.

Rogers only been in World racing series for about 40 years, so yes, he has vastly more irons in the fire than dirt cars. Yes, I know who Roger Penske is, and that he has his irons in tons of fires. Very wealthy and smart man who employs smart people.

I'm talking about whatever it was that Bloomer had, it was said that Owens, CBR, maybe a few others, were also trying them. Of course Penske has the patent, just as most other things are patented. You pay money, you get access to whatever was patented, at least what that company lets you have access to.

I'm curious, how are you so definitive in your answers, always, are you Ronnie Crooks, Stuckey, Robbie Allen?

I agree, Bloomer wooped up on JD the entire 2nd half of the season, but he did that to everyone. Davenport finished 1st and 2nd the past 2 years on the Lucas Tour. If he's an average driver at best, we are really offending a lot of big names out there who finished behind JD. Owens, O'Neal, EPJ, Sheppard, T-Mac, etc, etc...

Great post sir.

My point was that an Integra team will not have Penske only technology. You don't have to have a name in this sport to know things. People will sell their mom in this sport for a dollar. Which is what makes a lot of the fear rules in this sport unnecessary.

There were at least 3 different types of shock technology in play and outlawed at that one time.

Hatfield makes about as good of a motor as any of them. Barry's cars are a little off. Owens and Francis couldn't get them to the front, and JD is doing about the same. can't deny that dude's talent, if they get the car hooked up he'll be OK.

[goincircles]

The 116 would of won the dream with JD driving it....

LMAO Davenport would have had the right rear beat to hell and right rear tire gone the idiot doesn't know a thing about finess its run as hard as I can as long as I can but most generally has the ass end of the car destroyed.I know for fact that why Rumley left

[MI Dirt Fan]

There was no one beating Bloomquist. Period, end of story.

If this is true, why aren't Rumleys racing? Fact is they done what they set out to do, Kevin has a engineering degree, so got a job. If I remember right...LeRoy was over travelling too. I personally don't think the BWRC is the right car for JD, maybe they'll get it figured out. JD is a great driver, would have no problem finding a ride.

Cough cough this not the reasoning of their split. Your full of yourself about that.

I know what I heard at Atomic last season at the Buckeye national I was standing beside the car heard the conversation about tearing up equipment never driving with finesse yep could be another reason but the type driver that so called superman is did not help period

You didn't have to convert the "idiot" sign around your neck to neon!

Wasn't CBR running Integras still during the inerter deal?

He said CBR didn't have the inerter deal. Pretty sure Lanigan had it or some form of it but that was before he ran for CBR.

Lanigan was an Integra guy too.
