If he would ever learn to lift he might have several more big wins to his resume. But to me trying to down grade someone like mcreadie wont gain you any fans.
    Big tmac fan here, or at least was, but the way tmac was driving Pierce, was very dirty.

        Maybe 8 total, but some were start in park. No tour for sure. He is still isn’t 100%
        Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

          Well lol

          I’ll start by saying I don’t think Bobby did anything necessarily wrong with the multiple contacts with other cars. He had good runs and at the last second the door got shut. So he checked up and crossed over etc.

          In saying that, he still does a lot of taking. Timmy can only be mad about the front stretch contact, because there was zero on the back stretch. Now, in saying that, he didn’t turn Timmy. Timmy should have let that go and move on. Instead he tried to turn him and boned himself. As Bloomer did, same deal, but just move on.

          I will say, Bobby done a good job with the cushion. And yeah this can be taken however the he!! any of you wanna take it, without it, he wasn’t good. Look at the restarts where he had to start on the bottom, he was screwed. And my last two negative comments. He gets roughed up a little at any time, it comes with the territory. You wanna race real hard, you’ll get it returned. I don’t think he was wrong, just saying. And the majority of the time a car will not take that abuse. While it won him the race last night, they gotta get Bobby good away from the cushion. Any worse mistakes, or a part failure, and he’d have ran his butt off for nothing.

          But yes, it was exciting, and good racing. And hats off to Bobby.

            Solid post CnB...all you can do is tip your hat. He pushed that car to the max, and it paid off in the form of 53K.

                  Other than BP congratulations also go to the Kosiskis. Not many facilities and track prep programs that could have held up for this many laps while the region was under a severe heat wave.
                  I hate time trials.

                      Bobby also did a nice job of driving when Moyer jr. blew up right in front of him. I think that is why Bobby chose the bottom on the next restart. But soon found out the top was the only place for him!

                        Just watched the race. Wow, that was great. Hats off to the Kosiski family. The track was perfect. And what else can be said about Bobby Pierce? Even when he doesn’t win, everyone is watching him because they know he’s going to be fun to watch. He raced all over the track last night. Yes he prefers the top side, and nobody is better than him on the cushion, but he made several passes on the bottom and in the middle too. Drivers like Bobby are why I continue to be a huge super late model fan after all these years. There’s nothing worse than watching a guy drive a straight line around the middle of the track all night, even when the race and track is telling you to move around. I’m thankful for guys like Davenport, Pierce, Terbo, etc. Drivers like them are what puts the excitement in the sport. Speaking of JD, if he doesn’t lose the RF fender, he very possibly wins last night. Still can’t believe he got a top five with that car. Also, a huge thumbs down to TMac. I get that guys get frustrated if they feel they’re getting beat, but he pulled several bush league moves on Pierce. Totally uncalled for. Very weak. Not real thrilled with DOD’s replay either. That was a seriously condensed version. Still thankful for DOD and everything they do though. I’m just glad my boy James Essex made it to the finish lol. He sounded gassed at times!

                          Someone already said it, when Bobby slides somebody and they don't lift, and Bobby catches them with his rr, it's the dirtiest driving ever by him, but when the same exact situation occurs Bobby has a run and they pinch him into the wall he dont lift and contact is made, it's still Bobbys fault lol. The hypocrisy is real..Tmacs fault a100%, Madden and Bobby had no problems racing each other and put on a great show....props to all the people on 4m who aren't Pierce fans that called it like they seen it...

                            On the USMTS side of things only 25 cars for $8000 To Win, the class is dead. $30,000 motors running for $3000 To Win is not cutting it. There car counts are down where ever they go by 20-25%. Then they run a B-Main which all cars transferred, not good. I-80 does a great job with the Silver Dollar Nations and I bet there looking for a new support class.

                              So, in your opinion, he should take it but not dish it out? I've only been on this forum for a couple years and here is an observation. The Pierce fans get crap for "bragging" and how they think he is the greatest etc. etc. etc. He won the N/S, World 100, Dome races, Show me, and now the Silver Dollar Nationals. All Big races with lots of big players. Ironically, there is very few if ANY posts/threads of his fans doing all the gloating I've read so much about. You would think, as much as accused, there would be at least one thread started by his obnoxious fans tooting his horn. But none.

                                Can we all agree now that the Silver Dollar Nationals is in fact a "Crown Jewel" event?
