      Bilstein left so he had to use something kinda mainstream to get attention.

            My understanding: Rumley and Bilstein didn’t continue their contract.
            How this effects Longhorn ???

              Longhorn dynamics isn't just Bilstein. There's no one brand. There's Longhorn branded pieces, they aren't Bilstein

                The season started off with more chassis brands than it ended with. For a split second it looked like Cat5 would be something to deal with. Even Owens built his own chassis.

                  I just love how dramatic some guys get about this stuff.

                    Now with an off season I'm sure Owens at least will be able to put some effort back into his car. Didn't he damage his creation pretty early? I had high hopes for Cat5, but it seemed from the outside, that personal issues may have sidelined that idea... BMF to me was only ever just ok, I mean for what I understood to just be a mediocre copy of LH, it just didn't appear to be very inspired or ground breaking.(I could be wrong, but that s my view of it).

                      I think the Category 5 chassis has been rebranded as the Mach X chassis by the Seawrights. It will be interesting to see if Austin Kilpatrick can get his AK chassis to the next level during this off season. He woukd only need a few drivers to run it on a national tour to gain some traction. It has been pretty difficult to get acceptance aginst Longhorn and Rocket over the last few seasons.

                        AK only just offered his chassis like 3 months ago...
