    He might have dominated I-77 but other tracks weren't dominating, Jared Hawkins has won a WoO race, Tim Dohm has won a WoO race. I didn't say he was good I just stated he isn't in the Top 5 drivers that race in that area.

        Chris is in a 2017 Swartz car, motor was good enough to be fast time at the 5k to win race at Ohio Valley a few weeks ago. Next excuse?

          2017? Besides rusty driver, that car is a heap. Ask Jackie...

              Ok let’s add the 28 to the conversation. Who’s better Garnes, Dohm, Boggs, Carpenter?

                  This is one of the coolest threads I've seen on 4M. Great discussion with very little BS.

                  I would have to think that overall Boggs is the best driver of the four just based on experience, but Zach Dohm has had the better year. At this point in their careers I'd give the nod to Zach Dohm over Ty Carpenter. Zach seems to be the more polished of the two and he's certainly run well in big races. Ty really needs more of a chance to showcase his talents in bigger races. I haven't seen Garnes race much since I'm not in the area.

                    Zach and Tyler have had the better year but its definitely Jackie if you look at their careers. Not sure on career wins but i know jackies over 500 wins.

                      You cant compare careers when 2 guys are in their mid 20s, and the other has been racing longer than they've been alive.

                      I personally think Ty has them all beat at the time.

                        Have to agree. Leaps and bounds better than a couple years ago too.
                        Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                          Tyler is definitely a hell of a shoe. NO QUESTION about that! Chris is just better naturally. He set fast time at the 5K Valley Race and got knocked backed to 8th or so and was hummin like the wind at the end of that race. I'd say another caution and Freddie would have had company. Chris is smooth, generally easy on equipment, and has a way about momentum racing a track the others lack. I love watching Tyler, he's a monster out there in my book, but Chris is just a notch better IMO. Jackie has a record of racing that is nearly second to none in the MOV. I'm not saying he can't wheel a car because he can. We can put the Bond's right there too. I just don't think he has the natural ability Chris has in a car. Zach is tough but his equipment is FAR exceeding what Chris races. Zach is a good shoe, very under control, and does what he wants his car to do. He just can't pick lines on the racetrack like Chris/nor Tyler for that matter. I'll take Chris or Tyler over Jackie or Zach. Tyler is getting much better. He's not qualifying quite as good as he needs too but he can race the hell out of a car. I pat them all on the back because they can ALL outdrive me by miles. I really hate talking about these drivers like this because I like them ALL. I'm just chatting on a (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) board.

                            I was pretty impressed by the kryptonite car I drove last week. But after trying for 4 years to make an orange rocket go it probably didn’t take much to be impressed. But if I had the funds I’d probably buy one. I think they’re underrated as a chassis.
