        Bobby Pierce should learn from his dad, his dad was a stand up guy.

            Did Shannon buy the car or is this a team car he is just driving and maintaining? I surely wouldn't purchase something and be told what I was expected to do with it.

              Car was bought. This had been in the works for a while. One thing I heard was Maybe Babb can help get those cars going and find a set up that works to put the car on the cushion during a race. Guess will see how it all turns out.

                I'd bet it was "paid for" a while ago by Petroff. This is a favor in return.

                  I agree swearing makes you sound stupid but I think the problem with today’s society is that parents don’t teach their kids to not use that language in public settings and rely on others to behave so they don’t have to spend time parenting. If you take things away from them or ground them they should learn the right way.

                  The way I took Bloomers comments were that he is mad he hasn’t been performing well (dominating) and is serious about getting back to domination. It’s why he has so many fans because he can’t stand to lose and that’s one thing that makes him great. Comments like that are made prior to football games, baseball games, business meetings, etc

                  Again I agree you shouldn’t swear but Bloomer is (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)ing serious about getting back to dominating and I hope we see some amazing racing by Team Zero whenever we do resume

                        Couldn't do much worse considering he won twice in 2019.

                          I feel like Babb hasn't transitioned to the new normal for setups. He isn't the only guy from Illinois either.

                            Babb has had 2 decent years in rocket out of the last 8 years. So I'm hoping he's in this full time but my understanding is that's not the case. I haven't talked to Shannon in a few months so I don't know the full details.

                              They were pretty stout at the end of last year, but fell off a bit at the beginning of this year.

                              With Madden, Babb, McDowell, & Weiss in his cars I am pretty sure they are going to get quite a few wins.

                                Yes they were pretty stout. But Babb not so much... even in bloomer car the few he raced he did ok but alot of that was just cars ahead of him dropped out an he just maintained. Trust me love to see him dominate as I'm one of his biggest fans have been since he started in 1994 in a mod
