      I am not saying he couldn't drive. But, I know for a fact the device was worth 5 tenths.

              Data does not lie. It ain't worth that on a 2019 xr1, but it is on a 2014 blue grey.

                    Didn’t really think it was. Just really messing around with the guy “knowing” it was worth 1/2 second a lap.

                      You sure?

                      I was totally convinced it was Kevin. I figured most of us could infer it was a joke.
                      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                        Ever analyzed lap times from 2015? Ever tested a device? That's how you know what it's worth. It's rare to improve so many physics problems at the same time. Items that fix one are often worth a tenth alone.

                          Thanks. Thought I was going to have to work on my sarcasm skills.

                            Some folks elevators just don’t quite reach the top floor.

                                They won 8 or 9 crown jewel type races in 2015 with the device and won 1 such race in 2016 without it. I think that device played into that success a little more than you give it credit for.
                                That little so called device helped bring about maybe the best season anyone has ever had in a late model. If it wasn't such a advantage, He wouldn't have fallen off as much as they did in 2016.
                                And yes. JD is a wheelman. No argument there.
