    Pierce win %

    Love him or hate him, Bobby can flat out drive. I was not a fan for quite a while when he could only win with a cushion and was too aggressive with competitors. But he sure has matured and can win now on any track condition. I know he's young but at what point does the conversation start about the trajectory he is on? His win % the past few years has been off the charts and its starting to look like this could be sustained for a long time given his natural talent, even after his dad is no longer helping him. RTJ, JD, etc. are obviously the same caliber but overall the past few years BP seems to be remarkably consistent.

        2024 - 98 races with 37 wins = 38% win percentage...
        wins of $50,000 or more - 8 wins out of 12 races = 67% win percentage
        Lucas oil wins - 7 wins out of 12 races ($260,000) = 44% win percentage

          It's a shame they aren't going head to head every week.

          I wonder how much of Bobby's dominance is due to his father. That's not to say that Bobby wouldn't still be a top driver without him, but I really wonder how much Bob adds to the level of dominance. We know RTJ will win no matter what he is in and who is setting up the car.

            First I meant to say stinking up my show and not sticking lol...Lets make no mistake about Bob is a big part of Bobby's success but, I would have to believe Bobby has learned something from being in the sport his whole life. One thing about RTJ it doesn't matter who is his crew chief because he is actually the crew chief or at least that's the way I see it..

              Does Bob still build his DLM chassis? I know they've running LH as of late and toyed with RKT, but if memory serves they were pretty good in their own car too. Just curious.

                  Bobby is a very good driver. He has spent a long time behind a wheel to get to the level he is in. I watched him drive maybe 15 years plus ago. He has put his time in and has paid his dues. He was born in a racing family and doing what he loves. I have very much respect for Bobby. I really enjoy watching him race. He is drawing more and more fans each year. I for one will go watch a race that he is in. For RTJ, i don't know much about him. I do know the last couple years he has been the one the watch also, Bobby and RTJ are very good drivers. I also believe that the set ups they run help. There driving skills are really why they are winning. I give Garrett Alberson maybe another year behind the wheel he will be someone to watch also. There is alot of good drivers today.

                    Is anyone left running one besides Weaver? Super late that is.

                      Jeff Leka also is mentioned helping as well. Bobby has good people all around him.

                        Having Leka helping when he can is a big help. He knows his way around a race car that's for sure...
