    maybe when mark r is ready to retire he sells Rocket to Longhorn and this all becomes moot. Mark & steve cant go on forever and we all know josh doesnt want it so.... Anywho good luck Max in 2024 whatever chassis you run!

        Marks daughter is plenty capable of running the business. With or without Josh, Rocket ain’t going no where

          Running the business isn't near enough. Finding new ways to go fast and playing politics are actually more important for longevity in this sport.

              When the people that pay the bills say you’re running longhorn, you’re running a longhorn.

                That's the downside of a sugar daddy. Sometimes you have to let them have their way.

                  I'm pretty sure it was Max's choice. When I talked to him about 3/4 through the season and he told me it was time for a change. He's pretty tight with RTJ, so it was a no brainer. Bought a car from him turnkey.

                      RTJ is a distributor or he bought one of his old cars?

                        It’s all about the people you have around you. Justin Labonte was the only labonte really involved with longhorn when they started their dominant run 3-4 years ago. He was smart enough to hitch his wagon to Kevin Rumley and Matt Langston, that’s why longhorn is in the position they are in now. Arpin has just grew the strong foundation those guys at the original longhorn shop are responsible for

                          At this rate Dennis Erb Jr. is going to be Marks only customer on a major tour.

                              Think about this for a second. Your RTJ, You have just had your best year and beat them all in 2023. You have a car that your selling, if that car is any good you can talk all you want, they are not selling it. Horns have unfortunately had a problem with cars not reacting the same. Call it what you wish, but I don't think there selling a car RTJ is comfortable in.
