50k not enough to unload for?

50k not enough to unload for?

It could be that hes been racing for a month and half straight and some time off is needed.

Rocket1’s next stop will be Shinnston, WV at Rocket Headquarters after 4 1/2 weeks and over 5300 miles.

I played with his son more than he did at FALS. And we know why. He’s working. Been working for over a month straight. I don’t blame him or the team for passing on the 50. Time for some R & R with their families.

There are a lot of Big name Racers that are happy happy the Shepp is going to miss the N/S !

I keep saying it, the most professional team out there. Equipment needs attention, crews need to get back home and recoup. The world 100 is coming up, they go in there fresh, to me makes them a leading favorite.

Travels halfway across country for 50k last week but turns down 50k a few hrs away. Oh wait, that was a WOO show. Silly me. Crazy to think there are teams turning down a 50k to win show when you are one of the best 5 in the country. Racing is traveling.

They’ve been in the area for a month. They didn’t travel half way across the country to chase a 50k show, whether it was Lucas or WoO.

Everyone needs a break once in a while.

Somebody said earlier he was taking his kid to ride go carts this weekend........how can anybody judge that?

Glad he isn't going to the north south just for the above reason alone.

It was plainly announced a few days ago. Shocker, but there's more to life than racing. Since you need to know, his son has shown some interest in racing. So they are going to try taking him to a local go cart track. Brandon said, he’ll either like it or he won’t. I won’t force him.

He also has a daughter and a girlfriend. I have traveled for work, you get a chance for a break, you take it. Maybe you don’t understand, I’m guessing most of us do.

When you're on welfare you dont need a break.

Where did THAT come from?

He’s talking about DWB. Not understanding why someone would want a break after a month and a half and over 5k miles.

Funny that he whines about Shep not racing, but didn't mention Clanton. Or Lanigan who could step off his back porch onto the infield.

It's not a WoO race, why should we expect them to miss a chance to refresh everything and get some time off?
