We're just saying there's a reason he runs over there and not over here. Yes, he won a UMP championship out of it, if he runs weekly in IL that doesn't happen. -

He wouldnt have won a UMP championship period had he of came away from brownstown and raced with the true UMP boyz!! But no he stayed at brownstown and ky where the car counts protected him and his ump points!! Also the promoter at brownstown protected him as well just sayin..... If my memory serves me correctly there was a bounty put out on Devin a few yrs ago and a guy beat him and they claimed that Devin Broke just so they wouldnt have to pay the bounty to the guy at Brownstown....If you can't race it or take it to bed! It ain't worth having!Comment

He stayed close to home though because he knew when he couldnt handle the likes of Harrison,Leka and all of the ump elite...If you can't race it or take it to bed! It ain't worth having!Comment

I'm not saying for sure he might be the next big driver, I'm asking will he be. I'm looking for everyone's opinion.
In my opinion he is a very high caliber driver and if he sticks to the Late Models he will be one of the contenders in the area. If he gets the right equipment I could see him running up front in crown jewel events just like Pierce, Sheppard, Shirley and others. He isn't there yet but he is certainly capable of getting there.
Thanks,

Yeah the guy just stays around Indiana and races. Won is 6 different states at 16 different tracks. He don't have nothing to prove in the mod. His out ran all the people you guys are talking about and has been out ran by them too. You don't become a 3 time national champion staying in your backyard and not out running some good competition. Only time will tell in the LM but as right now what he has done so far isn't bad at all for just 5 races.Last edited by Half mile; 05-13-2015, 02:49 PM.Comment

He didn't get passed till about a quarter way up the front stretch and he broke coming off turn 4. That was obvious for anyone that was there to see. HMMMMMM?Comment

There's no doubt that the boy can drive a race car but when stuff doesn't go his way he either throws a fit or all of a sudden he breaks.... Sad but true...If you can't race it or take it to bed! It ain't worth having!Comment

And you yourself know that the kid was well protected by the promoter at brownstown as well...If you can't race it or take it to bed! It ain't worth having!Comment

I wasn't there that night but heard all the crying about it. My thought is if the promoter protects him why didn't he give Devin a little extra each night that he won without getting beat. Why should someone that finally beat him get paid 1500 or whatever it is and Devin gets paid 600 for winning? Just my thought.Comment

But no he took the cowards way out and pulled off claiming to have broke when in fact he didn't break at all.... True story!!!If you can't race it or take it to bed! It ain't worth having!Comment
