    Several: More than two but not many

    By definition, 2 wins cannot be considered several.
    Young Bobby needs to score one more "W" this season, then he's officially in the "several" club.

    For his career, believe he's already there in regards to Lucas wins.

      There is no doubt the Kid has talent. and yes it's no secret he's very good at running the top. Some guys are better running the Bottom, EPJ, McDowell Erb Jr. I don't care where he runs Top ,Bottom Middle as long as he is out there putting on a show and I'm getting my monies worth. EPJ has made a living at running the bottom so, if Bobby makes a living running the top who cares. There is no doubt about it it's fun to see him start 28th and come to the front. That's fun to watch no matter who has done it. Like when Bloomer comes from the back to the front. That's fun to see I don't care who you are.

        Love it when someone comes from the back. I dont care who it is. I like it to be someone i like , but if it makes for a real good race dont care Who it is.

            Agreed, I watched Jeremy Nichols do it in a street stock at Lincoln one night. He had that thing a running on the top.

                So the press release at the beginning of the season talked of Bobby relocating to NC to help with the weekly upkeep of the team. So if they are having maintenence issues shouldnt all you 4m Monday morning qb's blame him for that too?
                As a fan who has no financial stake in any team, I could care less if Bobby has to throw his car away after every race. Sure it would suck for the team, but I'm not paying their bills.
                At the start of a 100 lapper, you're going to find bobby pierce, richards, davenport, landers because they will be the show win or lose, good setup or missed setup, going forward or falling back. I'd rather watch guys like that instead of the other half of the field that is OK playing follow the leader the whole race.

                  I'm not so sure about improper maintenance being the cause. Besides the engines, they have had a couple new rear ends fail and a couple fan Blade/water pump issues. Surely new rear ends don't require maintenance that soon, and if the water pump is bad, you will more than likely have a noticeable wobble in the fan. Not much maintenance to a water pump. Besides proper oil changes and rebuilds when needed, not much engine maintenance needed, that's for the builder. So it's just my opinion, I think early on there was some growing pains and a learning curve, but now just a bad run of luck nothing more. Get your bad luck out if the way before the big money races come up. And I think Pearson took time off of the Lucas tour and Dunn Benson motirsports to drive the Mohring car on several occasions so I don't get why it's a big deal if Pierce drives the family car. Again just my 2 cents.

                    Bobby and DB made it perfectly clear they will not be together at ANY WRG raving event. This includes all WOO and World 100 events.

                      Yea. And? Just pointing out the events are still listed on the DB schedule. No reason to get all defensive. Sheesh

                        iam not a 100 percent on this but isn't he on the same 2 cars he started the year with?

                            It is over the fact that DB isn’t running WRG events. Oh well, that is their choice. If Bobby has the opportunity to race WRG stuff without DB, and I believe they paid his fine so he could run with them, then go for it.
                            Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                              Amazing that dirt open wheel drivers move from car owner to car owner in one season and no one sez beans about it. True they may drive for different owners in different classes but its common to drive for one outfit in USAC and another in a different series in the same class.

                              Whats the problemo?

                                Krooser I don't see a problem with it if the Dunn Benson team decides not to run the WRG/WOO events then that is them they don't stand a chance of not making any money where as Bobby does. I think that some people have the hater glasses on that they don't understand or get that Bobby is a race car driver he races for a living and if he doesn't race then he doesn't make any money.
