        That’s what happens when you jig a successful car (Maddens 17 Longhorn) and claim it to be unique... Davenport tried to start at step one on a brand new chassis and it failed... this one looks, Drives and acts like a Longhorn...

            Exactly what I was going to say Mastersbilt. If all it is, is a longhorn then why is no other longhorn running as well as him?

              Madden has always been completely underrated as a driver due to being mostly regional until last year. There probably aren't five better than him at being able to drive one and be able to tell you what exactly the car needs to make it better.

                  How long before Madden gets a new drivers suit with BWRC on the sleeve as opposed to the Longhorn. Just noticed it in his last VL picture. Irrelevant I know, just got a kick out of it

                    Yes it is all because it is an exact copy of a Longhorn and purely a coincidence that Longhorns aren't running as good as this new BWRC car. There's no possible way that a more knowledgeable driver has anything to do with it. Since Davenport wasn't successful the second time around, it has to be the fault of the car or the engine or anything other than the driver. No matter what, we mustn't claim Davenport had anything to do with it. That would be unthinkable!!

                      I can 100 percent say that the Icon is not a copy of a longhorn. Does it has some of the same components as a longhorn yes. So does most chassis being built today. Barry Wright is to proud of his work to copy someone else and call it his own.

                        Don't tell that to the kool-aid drinkers. They don't like to hear that kind of thing. It ruins their fantasy.

                            Well said.

                            I’m pretty sure Barry and Chris knew what they wanted to do and how to do it without jigging a Longhorn. And not all Longhorns are running so hot.
                            Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                              I’ll pick Madden to finally seal the deal at Eldora this season. He’s always been fast there, he may just have the right (or Wright lol) horse for the job this year
