    Hudson is going to struggle finding a top quality ride on a national tour. Those rides are not just out there for a drivers choosing, neither are the sponsors, and Hudson doesn't have much to show a potential client. Shame I thought the kid had a Brite future ahead of him.

      Hudson should have never agreed to drive for Masters as this was set up for failure from the get go. By not performing well in this outdated technology only hurt his stock and it was wishful thinking that they would compete well on a circuit like Lucas. They don’t have the engineering expertise to keep pace with Rocket and Longhorn.
      Jim11 you are spot on with the Beeman support. Anyone driving cars with his ownership or backing are in for a short stay.
      Good Luck to Hudson! He does have the talent to succeed in this sport.

          1 top 5 finish in 29 starts and only 5 top 10's.
          Without question, his worst season to date.

              After running so horribly all year, and then to win a Lucas race shortly after AB arrived......it's either a turnaround or just a fluke with some dumb luck mixed in.
              Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                yeah i thought he has run better since the new crew chief, or help arrived.
                could be luck, but at least his name was in the top 10 and not in the provisional list like at beginning of year.
                I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

                  I would assume the person referring to EPJ's season turning around would be the addition of Anthony Burroughs (was working w/ Brian Shirley)

                  SHREVEPORT, La. (06/18/2020) – A struggling start to the season for Earl Pearson Jr. and the Black Diamond Chassis House Car team turned a corner over the weekend. On Friday, Pearson Jr. drove the Lucas Oil No. 1 P&W Sales/ Drive4Etch.com/ Clements Racing Engine Super Late Model to a tenth-place finish at Cherokee Speedway in […]

                    Casey Roberts is available, maybe he'll take the car vacated by O'Neal.

                      I noticed he hasn't been racing and he took his website down.

                        They should put Cody Mahoney or Jason Jameson in it. Both could give feedback to give the piece some speed.

                          DOD article says Casey has left his ride & has a new job outside of racing to support his family.

                            Jim Beeman has to have some sort of record for going through the most drivers.

                              Burrows and Shirley had a horrible start to the season before their split. Shirley is now closing in on another Summer Nats title. Who knows how the wind blows tomorrow

                                Not saying AB is any good, but the difficulty level of those 2 endeavors are nowhere near the same.
