      You can clearly see the 6 chassis is almost not even like a late model chassis. The left rear sits completely different and you can see the difference in the corners when he is at speed with the way the car rolls over.. Something is definitely off with it.

        The ones saying its a copy is hilarious. Have y'all just started racing? Everybodys is a copy of 1. Somebody got that one built there own. Somebody got that and so on. It's nothing new. Just because it's got the cross bar in the nose and the sharp angle down tubes off the halo. It's a longhorn copy. It's got bolt in brackets why not do that? It's simple updates. Just from what you can see with your eye makes people think it's a copy. You can hate on Mark/Rocket all you want but atleast the man is trying to stay on top of the game and not set back and lose a business. I'm sure he has lost business. But I bet they will be getting some calls Monday morning on wanting one. It was 3 xr1s there and they all ran upfront.

          the 6 car handles like no other car, especially on corner entry.

              The car turns in on the gas like no other car out there. Noticed that at GIS if he didn't get in the corner hard car would jump around and be erratic but still maintained forward drive.

                    The rumley #6 longhorn is designed for jd, the new rocket is design of longhorn but to fit josh driving style. B.shepp look really good in his new rocket but the car is design behind josh from mark. Im sure shepp dont have the same or all the info josh does on that chassic.

                      Well jd takes rish for speed but not afraid to do it again when messes up. Look at his spin out friday, he can wheel a car and has no fear push his car and him self

                        There were a few more than three new XR1's there, I know Macintosh has one and I believe Satterlee has one too.

                          Carrier has one as well. Casebolt will have his Volusia.

                            Richards, carrier, and bshepp. Satterlee wasn't running a new car. I know Macintosh got one but I don't think they are running it yet

                              Macintosh said in a interview when a won a race this year I think the Cabin fever that he liked the new rocket car?

                                He might have been not sure on that one. But Satterlee was running last years stuff
