    That a lot of scrap iron they have made over the last 30+ years, give or take 155-160 cars made a year. Wonder what chassis has built the most late model chassis?

        Which one would you rather have? #4999, #5000 or #5001?

            DOD will probably get #5000 and make a bunk bed out of it for the office.

              I'd take #5000 and then give it to the Rocket driver that doesn't make the field at some race.

                    We shall see. It's going to be an interesting year with Pierce in a Rocket. I just can't imagine how much better he'll be with arguably the best chassis around.

                      Mark Richards might be an a$$hole, but he is one he!! of a businessman.
                      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                          Well it is by far the most common, its amazing what marketing can convince people of these days.
                          I was a highwayman
                          Along the coach roads I did ride
                          With sword and pistol by my side
                          and I am still alive

                            Outta curiosity, which chassis won the Lucas and the WoO championships? Which chassis took the top 3 at the World 100?

                            Kinda amazing what quality and staying on top of your game and hard work can do for you.

                              Winning championships is overrated.
