Wheeeeres Bobby?

[foxfire2dirtracing]

Looks who is back again!
The hall monitors can’t keep him down long!

Well Well. Bobby did show up strong last night. Great racing. Maybe the best race I’ve seen this year. In the end the South remains on top of the Super Late Model world. Chris Madden continues to shock and awe the field.

Not to mention the FACT that the old guy is feeling ill . . .

There was no bashing of ole bloomie, a simple question was asked. In fact, I wouldn't even say under 60 was old!

Golly, bloomie is to old to be bashing on tho...

Not to mention the FACT that the old guy is feeling ill . . .

Yea TMAC prolly knew he wouldn't advance many positions and wasn't worth it as they were out to lunch tonight and it's not a Lucas race

where is bobby???? he is in stuart iowa racing in the feature while t mak is headed down the road

You’ve seen Tmacs earnings this year I take it?? He can afford to leave early on this one.

It’s a double edged sword …Racers and fans alike all want the bonsai moves that work because that makes it exciting and it’s a rush if you’re the bonsai-er and cool to see from the stands.

But, we all want clean respectful exciting racing too……Bobby is somewhere in the middle of all that right now in his career Imo, which is worth about what you paid for it.

They are a racing family that’s dam good at what they do….that’s cool by me and I’ll always take the on track excitement and action as a trade off for the after race version of the same.Always.

Thanks BBQ. You explained this very well. Too much drama to be a truly top notched race team. I think you nailed it.

Mom drunken instagram burning tshirts….dad knocking cars off jackstands with a four wheeler….sister going gorilla crazy in the pits in Arizona….dad running out onto a live race track to get at another driver…...Bobby’s failed sliders and subsequent Superfan reactions and actions in the pits afterwards.

Those are a few of the circus scenario’s that don’t seem to follow other high profile teams…..Bobby is the show, Dad is the mentor and it’s really cool to see the whole family racing aspect of that side of it and that they drive themselves with the circle the wagons around themselves and us against the world mentality

But to imply it hasn’t been a circus over there is just being naïve or in denial……it’s gotten better as Bobby has matured but it wasn’t so long ago that controversy followed them everywhere they rolled into….and most wasn’t Bobby’s immediate doing.

I saw Bobby race for the first time at east bay back in 2011, I’ve been able to see him race a bunch since, he is great for the sport because every sport needs a hero and a villain.

Oh golly! Its another BP "haters" vs "huggers" thread of "oh yes he did and oh no he didn't"... How gauche! 

Oh golly! Its another username created to bash the same driver. How about that bloomie fella?

[TerryM]

Somebody want to explain the “circus” to me? And please don’t include the one or two instances we already know of — neither of which have anything to do with Bobby himself or his racing career. The funny thing is … the haters are always much older than Bobby. And the haters who have dreamed up this “circus” scenario, are probably older than Bobby’s parents. He is arguably the most exciting driver in the sport. His most avid haters are … well, I can guess what they are. I see them every day on Facebook.

Bobby was the star of the show last night , Just to watch him gallantly charge 14 spots was well worth the money spent to watch a daring display of skill ! ! Too bad for him that he just plain ran out of the laps needed to finish the job .

[Barbecueboy]

I’ve said that for years, only to get scoffed at by “ the circus”.

Well said foxfire

Started 22 & finished 8- to me that’s doing quite a lot. And I’m not a Pierce fan because of the circus- not because he doesn’t have amazing talent.
