    clanton and capital race cars

    if clanton keeps this up, capital race cars are going to be the talk of the town instead of the disco cars.

    I think it just proves that there is no dominant chassis. As many have been saying all winter, its the drivers. Drivers go on hot streaks and the chassis they are in gets all the attention. Look at the different chassis that have won races so far at Speedweeks.

    Rocket
    Club 29
    Bloomquist
    Longhorn
    Capital
    BWRC

    Hopefully this puts to rest all of these threads saying "Rocket is dying" or any other chassis for that matter. Its all about the drivers, and right now a bunch of different drivers in a bunch of different chassis are doing well.

        Chassis do die off... think of all the great chassis that have been. Typically a chassis design is based on one persons good idea. When that person decides to give it up the good idea is gone. Some of the today's chassis manufactures will have staying power, because they have started using real engineering processes. Like it or not "engineering" is necessary for staying power in the racing industry.

          jeff, no one said rocket is dying, just that they are declining, meaning that sales have to be down due to all the other chassis brands available and the recent success of MANY of them. not trying to tick you off, just wanted to make that point. pink

            A lot of people said Rocket was on its way out, not talking about you in specific but many in that post were.

                    Screven, East Bay, Bubba, and Volusia and the only Rayburn I saw was the S9 at EB and it didn't look well at all. Have to say the best running MBH is that of Brandon Overton and that's partly because of his strong showing at Screven where Casebolt and him donned the American Racers versus the WOO regs. on Hoosiers.

                      A lot of people were on Clanton's case last year for staying in a Capital,saying he should go back to Rocket.

                        You guys ever thought the people who know what makes these newer chassis better than current Rockets are not talking or they putting those features into their Rockets?

                            Doesn't that tell you something about the tire issue?Let them all compete,but restrict each manufacture to 2 compounds.

                              Great drivers in great chassis win races! Put Bloomquist or Owens in a Rayburn and see how much they win. They will definitely improve it but winning would be rare!
