    Glad to see him run good this year especially since he was running a unfamiliar chassis. He took to the Longhorn pretty good.

          Don't forget he's taking the big check back to Illinois with him as well.

            the WOO title was pre planned for Bobby to win. Sheppard held back most of the year. Madden changed Chassis to benefit Bobby. Heard Bobby thanked those guys for helping. Way to go Champ lol....

                    If,n that there was accurate, one would surmise that Chris Madden would be a crying up a storm if what some say about him is true ? ?

                          I am out of touch as far as costs to run a season motor wise especially. Wondering how much it costs
                          these days. Pierce and Ricky won over a million, much profit there?

                            A new Clemens is 55K and a freshen after 1200 laps with no breakage is 15k'ish

                            2 years ago a Clemens was 46K (late 2021), freshening likely may have increased also. My freshen number was from early 2022

                              So buying and 2 rebuild cycles is only $35/lap. What a deal.

                                So Does that come to about 3 motors a year along with freshening About 125 k for a full tour
