Owens / longhorn

Somethings a little fishy......the bossmans son has a 3 race old LH for sale! But when asked about switching to Rocket, he said no!

They have a ton of cars at the moment. Probably just trying to get rid of some

He’s probably just trying to get rid of Jimmy’s Longhorns.

I don't think it's fishy when he just bought out a Longhorn guy. What's fishy is when a touring guy gets a new car and runs it 3 times and sells it. Then he buys the same brand again.

They’ve never been able to build two cars the same. I’d say after covid the quality of metal has gone way down. Makes for more stinkers

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

I've heard lots of horror stories about the Longhorn build process. I just don't get it. I guess they aren't using Docol? That's supposed to fix the metal variation issues.

I didn't think anyone was using docol anymore. Warrior is the only chassis company I see advertising it. I run CVR Chassis and had a docol and can confirm that it was absolute junk, and Chip would agree. He went back to moly in 19 and found speed again. He said after 10 to 20 races a docol car was done.

Docol is basically a rolled and welded moly slab. What's the science that makes it no good?

A chassis is just supposed to locate everything in space. That means relative to the suspension stiffness, those location points should not be moving around in space because of loads. I'm pretty sure when small changes make the car "junk", it wasn't stiff enough to start with and we simply found away to work around the flaw.

Since we are into the rumors, it was said when a certain longhorn that had Lucas across the front of it and he left for team 46 it was because they could not get a good chassis from horn. I was told it really matters who is welding the car.

[Drop Shock]

The XR1’s are all docol are they not? I know they were the first ones to get it

[Escobar]

The XR1 that won $1+ mil was a docol car. Rocket1 ran that car for a silly amount of races and it didn't lose a step.

race cars are like humans no two the same...THEY ALL REACT AND ACT DIFFERENTLY!

Pearson was in the black diamond house car before going to Papich #46.

With Hudson winning some races over fields full of Longhorn's, how long before you see others change?

It’s already started.

Crossbones, my error, I forgot all about that pc of sh*t EPJ was driving.
