    I have to say I enjoyed watching him irritate BShepp last night, they got so focused on re-sliding the other they both sunk back through the field. It was hilarious to watch, like watching someone at a picnic swatting a bee and running from the table. The bee had a great time. Congrats to Madden on the win!!

      if by irritate you mean bounce off of and clearly demonstrate he's not capable of running at that level. Sure yeah that was entertaining. Madden and Sheppard went back slide after slide with no problems. Then stickler comes in throwing hale Mary's like it's the last lap for 100gs clearly championship material. It was shaping up to be a good race before that. Hated to see those last few cautions. Sheppard seemed to be better on the long runs. I think him and Madden were gonna have a good race if it had stayed green.

        If he hadn't got spun he was going to irritate him a little more.

          Don't get me wrong I'm not a Strickler fan, quite the opposite, but you could see BShepp getting frustrated and letting him mentally take him out of his race. Strickler tears stuff up, a lot of stuff and that's why I don't like him. His style is "Rockem Sock'em Robots"(ask your dad) and hope for a good outcome, similar to Booby P., but maybe worse and without the Beverly Hillbillies and Ellie May to back him up. Everybody knows I'm not a Rocket fanboy either, for many reasons, so getting to see them sink each other was a two'fer. Icing on the cake was a Madden victory. Christmas came early. Later.

            Frustrated with the way Strickler was racing him I’d imagine. He ran Sheppard way up the track twice coming out of two and threw a Hail Mary slider in 4 that would have ended terrible if Bshepp didn’t slam on the brakes and turn under. Then another time Strickler door slammed him in 1-2.

              And Madden drives an XR1 so...
              Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                Video of it on that Turnkey’s YouTube, and I have photos. Man, I could be totally wrong, but I think the fancy disaster was black. Don’t have the desktop on, but I swear it was black.

                  The hauler is definitely more of a gun metal but most of the pictures put out when they were promoting it were taken in the evening to help show off all the underbody lighting. It definitely looks black in alot of those pictures. I know I've seen it in person several times but the pics of it all lit up at what stick in my memory

                    I read the article on DoD the Strickler has officially lost his ride. Wonder who will get the chance to take this ride over.

                      Didn’t see that coming, said no one ever.

                      Gilpin, Don O’Neal, Casebolt???

                          Car owner Craig Sims of PCC Motorsports and driver @Highsidetickler have parted ways following a six month run together. Sims plans to return full-time next season with a new driver behind the wheel, while Strickler is currently seeking a ride for the remainder of 2021 & beyond.

                            Can we just give Rocket1 the championship trophy now, call it a season and let whoever is left go off and race wherever.

                              I said it at least a month ago. His car owner was all in, but he wanted longhorns instead of xr-1's. He couldn't get along with cody, gone. The guy is all about himself. He thru his crew under the bus, you as the guy paying the bills can only put up with excuses for so long.
