Does Rocket1 need to hire Madden?

Flyboy,

Some things are hard to get. House teams, with cars on the track, and parts warehouses, are not missing a piece for the car on the track.

I doubt DLM teams are getting their parts from third world suppliers who are low on stock. Those teams are run by men who do things themselves. The real answer is probably money. Either Sheppard wants more and isn't getting it, or Richards doesn't want to spend any extra on the car. They may have had a record setting season last year but I imagine the costs are close to what they won. He's already pumped out 1000 of the things and doesn't have anything left to prove.

Access to material to make blocks, cranks, pistons, rear end housings, etc is not a third world problem right now

I just talked to an guy you know the other day. They have broken 2 rear ends lately, and winters had told them 2-3 month wait on a new one. So that just goes to show ya, it's starting to roll down hill slowly.

Very true👍 I think your analysis is spot on although Rocket is up to just shy of 6000 chassis. Yes that many. Last I heard it was around 5600 chassis built. Incredible success up there off I 79 in West by god Virginia.

Wow,...................

Everybody seems to forget how far off the 49 was last year, now look at'em.

Or the Rocket stable’s dwindling performance before unveiling the XR1.

They say mark makes posts disappear. I sure as he** hope this one gets booted. Give it up, not one person knows if rocket 1 is trying something new or what's going on. I will say this, Mark Richards has always been a guy to change things up. It's how and why he has sold so many cars. How many color choices was there for a chassis not that many yrs ago ?
Oh let's please not forget, the team is leading the points.

[Rajflyboy]

They will win. No doubt about that.
