    Nobody is giving credit JD as a driver. Did you see how many times he switched up his line to find the best way around?He doesn't rely on a cushion like a lot of drivers, he finds where the car works and goes there, and he has for years.

      IMO Madden has the better RACE car. Davenport has the best car when he doesn't have to race or pass people. It's pretty obvious that car slows down once he gets in traffic. Until someone can knock him off the front rows, this will be how the story end most weekends.
      Or until cautions stop being thrown for cars coasting around at 1/4 speed.
      Get off the track.

      And JD is an unbelievable driver. Even the best get passed though and I think it was about to happen to him last night.

        He is a (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) good driver. He goes where Durham tells him to go with the sticks. He wasn't doing that just because he was searching.

          I hope ole man Landers is paying Durham good money to tell Davenport where to run. From where I sit, he was going to get passed by Madden at Cedar Lake and Durham moved him up just in the nick of time. Same deal last night, 71 was set to go on by the top and right when he gets there, the 49 moves up. I get that every driver has signal guys, but at this point they might as well put radios back in the car. To me it is the same thing. I remember back in the 90s, Bloomer was one of the most outspoken drivers on the use of radios. As he would say, a guy runs the bottom the whole race, then as soon as you are about to pass him high, all of a sudden he moves up.

            That dude left a cushy gig at Lucas to work his ass off for Landers. I'm sure he's doing just fine.

              Lets give credit where credit be due ! ! If you read into some of these notes one might get the impression that it is all car is why J.D. is winning so many races ? ?

                I'd say both. Dominant race car and a exceptional driver. That generally produces results.

                  He won the World 100 in GR Smiths gear running the middle groove. JD is something else.

                          Definitely not from a lack of effort. He ran the snot out of that ride.

                            Exactly , was the same when Moyer and Bloomquist was winning all the time years ago, same for Davenport in 2015 and last year with Overton. It will always be way.

                              Looks like JD will have to hire a driver for his brinks truck

                                Jarred was driving to the front and he hasn't even raced that much. I think he made it up 6th or 7th at one point.
