      Simple math actually! 1 Rumley plus 1 rocket = rockethorn pie r squared but one mist subtract the approval of Labonte so the answer has to be Rocket XR1

        And Rocket was successful before any consulting that was rumored to have happened. Longhorn was not.

        Tell us again how the Rockets wouldn’t do good at Eldora, I cannot remember how that one turned out.

            Now? They are pretty good.
            I am not sure why anyone at the top level would buy one when you have to compete against the 'house car dominance" every week taking money out of your pocket.

              I agree with dirty white boy. Seems like the 2 rocket cars aren't sharing technology with the guy with 1 car and a 25' trailer. Rumley came in with JD last year and shocked the soul out of Mark Richards. Rumley is obviously a very smart man and I guarantee he remembered every part on the XR1 when he helped build it. Honestly this year only, who are the drivers winning in the Rocket cars?

                  Please name what driver who has 1 car and a 25' trailer that's a better wheelman than Josh or Shepp. According to the Rocket website they've won 41 races in 2018.

                      I’m talking about 4 years ago or so before I think Weaver was even in a Longhorn.

                        Jack Sullivan, Brandon Sheppard, Tyler Erb, Mike Marlar, etc. 41 wins reported to Rocket so far.

                          If the technology wasn’t being shared, they wouldn’t sell cars. They are sharing it or they wouldn’t have 41 wins already and everybody under the sun in one or wanting one.

                            Didn’t look at every one, you can easily go to Rockets site to disprove your statements.

                              So a win in a crate late class where the motors are closer in power and handling is a premium shouldn't count to their customers? Different classes, different rules, still the same chassis. Still waiting on that 1 car 25' foot trailer driver answer.
