      His performance relative to the field has normalized. He was probably the first car on the low rr static load deal, but I don't know what else they were doing differently.

        Not sure what Huddy’s relationship is with Richard’s after he left the team but if it’s ok, seems like they’d be smart to switch to Rockets at SSI. He’s always run better in them for some reason.

            That's 2 guesses. Where is the proven part?

              I don't need to have it. He had a car that drove different and won all the time. Now he doesn't, just like every other driver that ever had an advantage.

                    Hudson sat right down in a proven car with a proven crew chief and RTJ went to a team that didn't even field the same chassis and had more than one chief in a short period of time. I say RTJ proved he's the better driver.

                      I only have one vote and I'm with you! O'Neal is a higher shelf than average driver but not top shelf. I believe Thornton has been top shelf since he crawled out of a modified.

                        Between the 2, it's no contest.Take away Lucas Oils nascar gimmick format, RTJ's the 2 time defending LM Champ.

                          Ricky drive Longhorns they already owned and were racing. Ricky's a better hands on guy, he's not a better racer.

                            My concern for Hudson is if ssi stays running. As he lost crew chief and 1 other helper Justin. An with hauler 2022 car motors an other parts up for sale. Ya I get they cleaning up parts an maybe upgrading hauler but with all at once doesn't look to well.

                              It's been proven rtj is a better racer.
