    Don't know if it's been posted on here yet, but just read where Tmac is going to drive the #6 in select races.

      A great deal of the #6's success was Davenport, not Rumley's "device". Many forget that fact.

          A lot of guys could win if you give them a 1/2 second a lap.

              As a McCreadie fan I'm stoked! As a Marlar fan it stinks, crazy how the 2018 WOO champ has to search or throw something together in April after the year he had.... I'm sure he'll get something rounded up.

                In 2015, I saw an inconsistent driver constantly jump the cushion and make mistakes and drive away. The last 3 years, I see anew Superman. This one is 100% legit.

                  Marlar had no plans to race this season till Rumley called. Even then it was a specials races only.

                    I just assumed that had that deal not come together somethen else more permanent then what this turned out to be could have I do remember him sayin he was planning on working more outside of racing an not following a tour but not quitting the sport. I also think it's odd he would decline to comment to the DOD staff on the write up, he's a pretty mild mannered guy for the most part even when things don't go his way, an also open in the past as far as moving from team to team or switching chassis an so on ???

                      Win-win situation for everyone involved other than Mike Marlar. It will allow Tim McCreadie to race more of the high paying non-Lucas races, both the #39 and #6 will be on Bilstein shocks which should only help their return to dirt late model racing and Kevin Rumley keeps his limited schedule that he wants.

                        I agree with the last 3 years comment. And as far as 2015, for prob the best year on record for anyone ever, ya he was not as polished, and even I'd he did make the mistakes you say it was his style and aggressiveness that gave him a few tenths along with the car...

                            If tmac could qualify he would have won races already this year. Came from the back at Hagerstown Saturday on a 1 line race track
