    Yes Eastbay appears to suit the Rockets especially early in the night like qualifying and heat races. Just like Eastbay was awful Rayburn friendly years ago. I don't think Eastbay is racing nearly as good as it did years ago either. The clay seems completely worn out and full of rubber or something. The Longhorns will be just fine when the mud disappears I'm betting. We'll see if the Rocket success continues at Volusia?

      Rocket is a bit off from where they need to be, but there is only 1 chassis manufacturer in the country that wouldn't trade their place in the sport with them right now. The sport needs more successful chassis builders IMO

        Nice post. I was thinking the same thing about Rayburns. They weren't a real threat to win at one time but they were really dominate at EB. Some tracks suit some chassis differently than others.
        Probably see a flip flop at Volusia. Both will be fine.
        Been a nice diversity of chassis brands running well at EB. Nice to see.

              Longhorn told there drivers to lay back as they were stinking up the show so early

If you can get one in the corner, it will not come off.If it is like hearding goats on corner entry, it will come off the corner hard.Before all you 4m keyboard racers pile drive me with your opinions, I have an XR1 crate car so i do know a bit about them.
                    Are you seriously comparing your crate car that you clearly don't know how to work on to cars on a national level. Yes your right all xr1's are junk because you don't know how to adjust yours. The Longhorns do have an advantage right now in the longer races and I do believe it relates to some front end adjustments/settings but the guys that don't need to dial up mark any time the track changes don't seem to have any trouble running well in their XR1's

                        Rocket pretty much kicked everyone’s butt at east bay….was cool to see the relief on Hudson’s face after his first win.

                        Somebody else said it first but going to work for Mark Richards and rocket1 must be like going to work for George Steinbrenner and the Yankees……as much as I’m not a fan of the latter I am a fan of young folks dedication and success, cool for Hudson.
                        Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                          I lost count of how many cars Hudson had to pass for all those wins. Longhorn stock is dropping like a bag hammers.
