    Attn Tmac: We get it. You are broke and need help

    Can you please flip the record over so can hear what is on the other side?

    I used to think that Feger complained about money alot but Tmac just took that title from him! That stuff just gets old!

    I like TMac but I have to agree, he's not the only one that has it tough in this sport. There are tons of guys struggling to keep up and you rarely hear a word out of them. It's almost getting bad as the Moyers blaming everyone but themselves for things after every race.

      I know what you mean.. but can’t blame him at the sametime.. pretty much everyone see that as the house car. They can’t even get a cdl truck driver get to Eldora. Makes me wonder if the Labonte giving landers money? But think of it they are to cheap update their website lol.

        Seems like I remember an interview from him a couple years ago complaining about rules and wanting no restrictions on tires and shocks. Guess the tides have turned
        2018 races: 11
        Atomic (2), 201(5), Eldora(1), Florence (3)

          Kwd I mentioned about the same thing the other day. You'd think the #49 was the house car not the #39.

          I thought Tmac was getting a new rig like last year or the yet before.?

            I take Timmy differently then you guys I guess, I look at him as a heart on your sleeve type of guy that's discussing his current difficulties. I enjoy his honesty. If you ran 6th in the dream with a single car enclosed in today's world. . . Every last one of you would be screaming for help in any way shape or form.... am I wrong? Or would you rather them interview Dennis erb instead?

              Late model racing is a dying sport, lets face it. Bloomquist and Davenport are spending twice as much as every other team. I dont see it as complaining as much as drivers just being honest about their programs. I predict Davenport and Bloomquist will win every major this year.

                I guess that before landers hooked up with Kevin and jd. The team 49 is the golden child and team 39 is the redhead step child lol.. but if true kind sucks for tmac, specially the run he had last year.

                  Mmmm. I don't think every major. I know they've been quiet but Rocket1 shouldn't be slept on. Nor Madden.

                    I meant the real majors. Show Me 100, DREAM 100, North South, Topless, USA Nationals, DTWC, Knoxville, World 100. Bloomquist is going to win 5 of those races, Davenport will win the other 3.

                      Rocket lost there air shock and are searching. I said going into this year T-mac can be said to be the house driver for longhorn, but every eye out there is watching the 49 out performing the house car. Hummmm, somebody not sharing info or did T-mac forget how to drive. As for not having a CDL driver and them showing up as a 1 car operation. I don't have the answer. But, if it is longhorns #1 car, cough,cough, does anyone see what that looks like ? Cheap,cheap,cheap

                        Best Performance seems to have deep pockets with Josh Richards. They spend a ton of money as well not just Bloomquist and Davenport.

                          Seeing the all the guys in their rigs lined up in the concrete pits and then glancing over to see the #39 sitting on a plastic tarp in the middle of a mud hole was certainly strange and I'm sure it's had T-Mac questioning himself and the team all weekend.

                          Wish I would of taken a picture because it certainly was a very odd sight.

                            This was the same question I asked under the TMac thread, post #5. I guess I was under the wrong assumption.

                            If he is driving the Longhorn house car shouldn't Longhorn be providing everything required to run a national tour including the sponsor responsibilities? With what you see from the #49 you'd think that was the house car.

                              Always been a TMac fan, but agree with OP here.

                              I've always wondered if it was loyalty to the Sweetners Plus guys or something else that's kept him from not being mentioned when some of the bigger rides have had open seats.

                              He's definitely not shot on ability.
