    I need to find me one of those kinda hats

      They've been a top regional program for a while. I know it's a foreign idea, but if you win some races, you get talked about some.

        I don't think the Rocket was a good fit for him he was tough in a Longhorn plus with them he was hands on with them. I have always heard good things about the man saw him race a bunch somebody will be getting a class act with him.

          I'm less surprised they are splitting than I was when they got together, not a good match. Good luck to Casey.

              Good luck to Casey, hope he finds himself a good ride. I wasnt sold on him teaming up with Blount back when it was 1st announced, but as a fan of his I had high hopes. He wasnt bad in the car just nowhere near what Roberts or McIntosh have done in the last couple of years. I cant remember the date but wasnt it July or August when they got their 1st win together? When was the last time Roberts or Blount went that far into a season to get win #1? The Cushmans are good people and hated to see them get out of the sport, but it would be great to find another deal like that 1.

                    No, he spent the bulk of it with Cushman. He started in DLM with Slab Sellars driving an old Rayburn at Toccoa, then updated to a Walter Newman. When he left that ride to go out on his own Buck Simmons took over. Casey and a group of friends ran a Larry Shaw for a minute and then fielded a GRT(used Bart Hartman) for a season, maybe 2. Then in the mid 00's he hooked up with Cushman and they've utilized a lot of different cars while together:Barry Wright, VC by Moyer, Capital & Longhorn, in that order I'm pretty sure. Want to say he started up with Cushman in 2005 or 2006, but could've been as early as 2004. Then Blount and XR1.

                      Yeah im good thanks, just had to take a break from the trolls and crybabies that were taking over every post. My brain can only handle reading so much stupidity at once, plus started a new job and been focused on that.

                        Local/Regional guys that seem like good targets for Blount (depending on how DB ride plays):

                        Corey Hedge(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)

                        Tanner English

                        Marlar (likely ends up with a different team)

                        Michael Paige
                        We'll miss ya Doc Watson...

                            I wouldn’t doubt that either, unless they left on less than mutual terms.
                            Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.
