        If that car owner can't be happy, how can any car owner be happy?

          Nobody has won more money than Thornton the past 2 years except for maybe Pierce or Davenport. Can’t possibly be performance or money related. Says they already hired another driver so could be something where someone got in their ear or the fact Ricky rubs some of the others the wrong way. Either way, crazy. Guess we’ll find out very soon who they booted RTJ for.

            And RTJ needs a ride fast. Someone is loading their ride to make room for him.

                I am sure that it has a lot to do with the attitude of the driver. Probably Todd and Vicky Burns doesn't want to deal with it anymore.

                  According to another LM driver on FB that just ran the Gopher 50, it’s Hudson. Sort of figured maybe he got in their ear. They have a past working relationship, he’s using their other hauler, and things haven’t been going that great trying to run his own team.

                    Didn’t this guy talk about the future with O’Neal in one of Kovacs end of season write ups and then dump him a month later for Ricky? His goal in Racing must not be to win so I wonder what his charity is raising awareness for?

                          Moyer is hurt and is most likely done for awhile. Ricky has drove imca stuff for Cooney before. Ricky will drive for Cooney til the end of the year and will be in rocket1 next year.

                          Just thinking out loud

                            Todd said things weren't going as planned. I mean they're leading points in both Lucas, Castrol flo racing series plus he's won a few races already this year. I'm not sure what the plan was but, one would think it was going pretty good. Now does Burroughs stay with SSI motorsports or does he go with RTJ
