Davenport, Struggling...

[Rajflyboy]

one of the probb that is hurting a lot of the big names is info isn't guarded like it use to be .a driver could hit on something and keep it a long time before it got out.. now you have consultants,shock pimps yes they sell you like like a cheap ho,chassis builders that help and give lots of info out to there chassis customers,crew chiefs friends with other drivers and teams help each other out ,texting has a lot to do with it years back this didn't exsist,face book too u can be online talking and share info,,,heck I come from the era when you had to wait til thurs,friday when the racing newspaper came to see who won...its kinda like what steve f. said he came up and learned from trial and error for his speed and you didn't tell no one. now if you have enough money you go buy speed you don't earn it the hard way....if you have the mentality that you you don't want to talk to others you get left behind now cause drivers all talk around about setups an if your that driver that has a lot of pride and don't talk around and reach out for help chances are your not gonna run good nowdays...

TrueI heard an interview with Scott (Dave Despain interviewed him) years ago. He was talking about the work required to do well. He said he got beat a few times and was up under the car one night trying to figure out the suspension. He fell asleep under the car and woke up around 5 am and he figured something out (he said that one thing lasted 6 years before it got out)

I thought Kevin Rumley works for Bilstein.

I thought Kevin Rumley works for Bilstein.

He does and he works on the 39 & 6 car. He also spends time at longhorn.

And if you want to run Bilstein Shocks he'll help you out also. Some guys are just bull headed because in today's world of SLM racing you, if you have the abilities, can go buy a chassis and copy it. Look at stuckley, that car is garbage yet EPJ keeps struggling and stuckley keeps thinking he has the answer. Ahh, no, you don't. Your chassis is junk.

Cape is dirty - can't fly very fast !

[BigDaddy84]

Can’t qualify for nothing. Start 3rd row in the heats. Running consies. No excuse for running this bad consistently.

[Rajflyboy]

Go back to 6 run the 6 did I say 6 what about that 6 car I’m telling you the six car 😜😀

[BloomerWon]

Can't run them there fummy tars forever....

[bleedblue55]

Interview there this weekend said the droop rule is having a big impact on them.

A major Team like Davenports, anything other than winning is slow. You guys and this podium finish crap crack me up, the everyone gets a trophy theory has done permeated SLM racing. Guys like Davenport want to WIN, 2nd sucks !

I'm sure thou, they will get it figured out. T mac and that Longhorn looks like they are already working on the rear of the Car. Anyone notice this stance of T macs car?

Please tell us how this non existent droop rule affected them at Magnolia which was a Lucas race.
