    Nothing against T-Mac but I'd bet Rocket 1's winning percentage will drop noticeably. Those young guns do tend to drive the tires off the rims, so to speak.

      I would say that this is a very good prediction given that T-Mac didn't even crack the top 10 at Brownstown while young Hudson O'Neal finish right up there among them in his first night out in his new ride.

        It's weird seeing TMac in that Blue #1. Even James slipped up once and referred to the 39.
        This one's gonna take some time to get used to.

          I think Albertson lost the most spots followed closely by T Mac and Shepp

            The 111 was rolling last night…….he was about the only “mountain mamma” I saw that could keep up with the stampede……really good race.
            Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

                  We shall see, he is already qualifying better, won a heat his first night and finished 1 spot behind Bobby and ahead of RTJ his second night. It is not like the Longhorn house car is setting the world on fire. 25 races, 2 wins and 9 top 5's. That is way below the personal bar BShep has established form himself in his past years.

                      This is the only time you'll ever see someone lift in that car.

                        based on his results the kid in the Longhorn house car has been lifting a lot too

                          You gotta excuse wedgie, he’s just a grumpy old man that hates anything rocket. His favorite driver could start to drive one and he’d hate them.

                            Yep, got a horn off RTJ at end of 23, thought he changed after the failed Boom experiment.

                              If the rocket house car keeps running like it is there will be a new driver soon. I'm not a rocket fan but this rocket program is to good to be running and finishing like it is.

                                On the same note, I have a feeling there's more changes coming for the Longhorn 'house car' driver. They were quick to dump a very experienced crew chief so that tells me Riggs isn't afraid to shake things up.
