Rtj

He's a combination of veteran racecraft and the guts of youthfulness. Look at the move he pulled last night to win at Fairbury. Slider in 1 and 2, got crossed over, waited for a fraction of a second in three to see what kind of defence would be thrown, and went low to win. What he did in turns three and four were decided in a split second with no hesitation.

RTJ has always been bad fast and anyone surprised by that is simply not paying attention. RTJ, Pierce, zack Mitchell, & drake troutman are the future of late model racing imo.

I can't comment on Troutman, based on the one race I saw, but Thornton, Pierce, and Mitchell can handle race traffic as if it isn't on the track. All three are as good as I've ever seen at that aspect of racing and I've seen a lot in 60 years of watching. A mastery of traffic wins races if the equipment us under you. With these three, it seems to make no difference about the track; just get them to the pits.
They will take care of the rest!

what rtj has going isnt luck. kid is badfast and will be upfront for quite awhile imo. nick hoffman will do the same.

He hasn’t blown any motors, he hasn’t been caught up accidents that aren’t his fault. He hasn’t had any flats that cost him a race. The only issue he’s had all year was the droop violation and even that didn’t hurt him too bad, because Lucas extra soft droop penalties. These things are all pretty lucky. He’s very talented, no doubt, but these dream seasons always have an element of luck.

Luck, karma,juju, stuff happening or whatever you want to call it exists…..Normally it depends on one’s beliefs as to what it’s called.

I totally believe I’ve been lucky many times that deer stopped to eat corn instead of running out in front of my car driving home through the swamps on the way home from a race…..

thats the good Lord watching over you bbq^^

No such thing as luck. Stuff happens and sometimes stuff doesn't happen.. not because of good or bad luck. Often I see people wish other good luck on social media.. dumbest thing ever.. like that post will make a difference. I think they just want to feel relevant. People were winning races, having flat tires, blowing motors, missing a wreck well before some goober on social media was wishing them luck.

its more that they are saying we have your back and want you to do well, at least thats why I say it. not to say there aren't those who just want themselves noticed.

why was Ricky sent back to 6th? he stalls then resumes power then they
throw the yellow? he never stopped. what?

great come back, great driver!

[kidrock]

I sure would like to hear from the Woo officials on why they made that call to send him back to 6th. It sure seems like that wasn't the right call but, they may have a perfectly good reason why they made the call.

Although I am glad RTJ came back and got the win. 187 pages later of bashing would have followed.

Politics involved perhaps since RTJ is not a WoO regular ? ?

you nailed it. its not the first time WoO screwed or in this case tried to screw a none WoO car.

[HoosierDirtFan]

If you all where listening or watching the race they announced over the track PA why they threw the caution and made the call they made.

I mean maybe that was the reason. I've heard this same stuff when a Woo guy races Lucas. That's why it would be nice to here their response.

I wasn't there and I don't have dirtvision so, no I don't know why the Woo officials made the call.
