Are people leaving Rocket because they are not giving any "support" anymore?

      Why is it some people have it right in front of them but, for whatever reason they do dumb stuff to screw it up. He seems to be a talented induvial and hopefully he can get it together and do better.

        MBR brings common sense to the discussion.

          That loser needs to be banned from the sport. He has stolen from so many teams.
          Anyone hiring him gets what they deserve. If Richards lost money its his own fault for hiring him. Can't feel sorry for anyone that gives the 10 time loser a chance. Once a thief, always a thief.

            Good point. I didn't realize he was a habitual thief and yes you're right once a thief always a thief.

              Hopefully he gets the help he needs, dude is a whiz at making stuff go fast……..until he starts whizzing on the people he works for.

              Sad situation and at some point if this continues the consequences for him will be much worse than just getting fired from a job or hauled off to jail…..I’m not a fan really, but clearly this kid has demons that need addressed and it sux in general to see people kicking themselves in the nuts over and over.
              Somebody somewhere going to TUNE him up for grabbing the wrong cookie is what’s going to happen.

                  I worked with him for one day at a race. His attitude was something else towards people. Very bossy and you do it his way. No wonder why he only lasted working for my friend for 4 months. Ran off his entire crew.

                    Everyone thinks there going to change him. He may be a winner for putting cars in victory lane but he always ends up being a LOSER! So many have given him a chance and it's always same result!

                      He's a good example of talent gets you nowhere. You need the social skills relevent to the industry as well.

                          Full time help and thousands of laps of testing, mostly.

                            Personally Rocket and Mark aren’t exactly on my Christmas card list even though the business empire he’s built and the hard work he and his team have used to build it are overly impressive and deserve every bit of credit they get and then some……however my personal feelings on Hudson are just wow, I mean how do you not love that guy? He’s as real as they get, speaks from his heart and has to be the Apple of his proud fathers and families eye in the way he races and handles himself as a young adult.

                            If my favorites in the Horns get beat, zero problem with it being by him/them…Well done last night.

                              Story down south being told is he was trying to fight employees in the Rocket shop and the money deal was that he was giving out tech support & info and pocketing the money hisself instead of putting it in the business account where it was suppose to be put. bb55 or somebody with more knowledge of the situation than me might can clarify if this is correct or not.

                                @BBQ - I agree with you 100%. That's exactly how I feel about Rocket and Hud. Every time I see the Rocket 1 out there, I have to remind myself it's Hud behind the wheel. I like B-Shep, but it was harder to get over my dislike for Richards while he was with the team.

                                All that said, even if I don't like the Rocket 1 team, I do respect what they've accomplished over the years and it's a lot easier not to hate them when they're now the underdog.

                                I think it's very important for the sport to have more than one top chassis brand, so until Team Zero or someone else steps up, I hope Rocket hangs in there so Longhorn has someone to beat up on.
