Bobby Pierce not planning to run a national tour in 2019?

[Shiny Side Up 18]

Is this gonna be enough?

Sure he can do what he wants, he is done it before and won it a few times, He also has done the New Zealand thing too. One thing he hasn't done won a major championship in WoO or Lucas Oil. Summer nationals don't cut anymore. That series is a dinosaur and caters to illinois drivers. They are lucky if they get a full field of cars. He had his chance to race with Dunn Benson again and he said no. To beat the best he must race the best. But sounds like he is cherry picking. Good luck!

hes an overated bum

Aint gna get no argument from me. I want to see it too, mainly because I know its feasible. Problem is that a tour is not econamically feasible for his family team on money spent vs money won compared to his outlaw schedule. His profit margin will be much higher...not gna blow money just to shut up a couple of 4m clowns...

Bobby's already beat the best, yes he has not won a woo or lucas championship but, to say he hasn't beat the best is just plain wrong. Yes he is going to be cherry picking where he races but, he is also going to be racing at some of the bigger races as well so, he's not ducking the competition just being smart about making a living racing and there are plenty of big races close to his home to cash in on. yes he had a chance to race with Dunn Benson for another year so, what's that tell us? That they like what he did last year.

Does anyone know what kind of money he will be racing for in New Zealand? Forget either series and points aside, he's missing out on a chance to make a lot of money in Florida. As I recall he now owns his own car right? I know the family isn't hurting for cash but I'm surprised he's skipping speedweeks.

money doesn't always take the place of memories........I think it's pretty cool he's going.

[tigwelder]

do they need to go to Fla to race on mostly junk tracks to make you guys happy? sounds like they got a better plan but know one on here has it figured out yet.

Well, if Bob Sr. had started an auto recycling business at age 16...

Believe both families have done just fine, doing things the way they want to do them.

I never said there was anything wrong with his decision to go. I'm looking at it from a financial decision standpoint. I've never cashed a check full of memories.

Getting to Florida with travel fuel, racing fuel, engine wear, tire bill for the sandy tracks, for what's the avg pay to win each night?... =money pit, vs going to New Zealand, Vacation for a week, and race a car totally on someone else's dime?...haaa no brainer...

hes cherry pickin

I'd say, the tire bill in FL. off sets any winnings, if it's anything like back when. Then none of the set ups transfer to anywhere else. You go if your going to race a tour or just for a vacation. The Sun on your back, does feel good though.
