    Don Oneal needs to be back in a Mastersbuilt, there new car i believe would be competitive in Lucas. Whether thats with CBR or not i dont know. I believe he is still able to win and be competitive. Also get that MB a Durham Ford and go get some wins.

    Just say no...

Davenport had the same issue there, he was an up & coming force in the BWRC housecar, but once he went with CBR and got the same crew chief that Francis got stuck with, performance fell on its face. I don't think the cars are the problem and I'm not a C29 fan.
      I mean, Don O’Neal did win the Lucas title in a BWRC at CBR.

        Seems as though the drivers would speak up and maybe some changes might happen. But like they say "aslong as the checks clear"

          I agree. I don't think the issue is the drivers, it's CBR's mismanagement. If I were Hudson I wouldn't touch that team with a 10 foot pole

            Hudson has a big change coming up for next year and it doesn't involve CBR. This one no one will see coming.....

                    Hudson is not in the same equipment as the CBR team. Don O'Neal can still wheel a car, the pittsburgher proved that. Lanigan and whomever is making some of the calls just can't get the set up. Remember, O'Neal did say after the pittsburgher that they had found something. Well somebody forgot to load it up when the left pittsburgh because it sure has not changed things. HUDSON, goes MIDGET RACING.....

                      You are right. They are not in the same equipment. The 71 is a relatively fast c29. That parks with the other ones every week and is related to a driver.

                        I missed the part where it became "easy" to win a Lucas Oil feature event.

                        It's not like D & D are just tail-dragging the field...

                        Today's game is all about qualifying and finding speed early in the night. Given the talent at the arena, if you start 4th in a 50 lapper, you might get it done. You start 6th, there's a long shot. You start 8th or further back, forget about it...you're gonna need a miracle b/c the chances that the 7+ cars in front of you, crash, get a flat, or miss the setup is slim to none.

                        It's all about those two laps before the sun goes down. Same problem Erb Jr. has.

                        Given CBR's track record in Lucas...I don't believe it matters what chassis is in the hauler, or who's driving it, it's gonna be behind the race leader.

                          I'll get bashed for this comment, but this is exactly why I hate qualifying. I love how Florence Speedway changed the format for the North/South 100. Jameson came from the back to win his first heat race a few years ago and so did Owens. It might suck for those drivers who'd rather qualify but it's great for the fans. If a driver has a fast car, he'll get to the front.
