    After about mid-week at Eastbay, lets just say, there was discussions about a switch!

    I hate it for Stuckey, but well funded teams like Dunn Benson expect to be in the front!

    With that being said, why would anyone switch to 2nd best? I don't believe they will get much help from Rumley/Davenport!

      I hope it works out, but from what I saw during Speedweeks, Rumleys Longhorn is the only one I would want to drive! The others aren't in the ballgame!
      The longhorn has a winning set up on there cars at time of delevery. The drvr and cc have got to do min adjustments to there liking and not get it all out of wack and then say there junk.

          And when I say inferior, I mean versus its biggest competitors like mighty rocket, fledgling longhorn, Capitol and victory.

          Not the disco ball itself.
          The club 29/BD is a little more fledgling than longhorn. Give it time and it will run up front again. Every dog has its day. Next year it will be something else.

            Its kinda like what my preacher said one time. "Never say never, but you'll NEVER read about me running away with another man". Since I was born and raised in the South, I'll NEVER pick blackberries in Jan.! LOL

              There was talks of a switch at the end of last season. After buying another new car over the winter and getting the same results, I don't blame them for swtiching.

              We can all sit here and say they won't get as much feedback from the longhorn guys, they may not need it.

                    I hope they get as much help as madden,weaver,Roberts and the rest of them........should be plenty enough for Earl to show some marked improvement.

                        By what....2 years?

                        First longhorn went from a thought and to the track in 2010........and even then only had a couple cars and were selling virtually none until 2013, say what you want but the chassis brands I mention as fledgling are just that compared to their much more established counterpart brands like rocket,MB,bloomers,ETC.

                          I'm sure there will be some improvement, but I don't see him competing for the championship. My motto is you cant beat them if you are using the same equipment. I believe he would have got more help from Rocket. They obviously have a better piece right now!

                            Its only March 8.........it's really not that obvious yet.

                            I may be wrong also, but I don think I've seen any space X podium sweeps this year...I believe there have been three of those said sweeps by the Bulls so far in 2016.

                            Again, I could be mistaken.

                              yeah....but Im a stats guy. He got beat 8 out of 12 times, head to head. I don't think you will find where that happened last year. It would be nice to see Josh,JD, and Bloomer race each other for the Lucas trophy, but we know that aint happenin!

                              I think Rumley/Davenport rattled the wrong dogs cages! They forced them to work too hard, and now the Horns are behind a little!

                                I agree with your point as it concerns rocket, bloomer, etc., but BD is still more fledgling than Longhorn. Every chassis brand hits on something and becomes the flavor of the month for a while. Then it moves on to someone else. That's why I cheer for drivers, not chassis brands.

                                I don't have anything against EPJ, but I don't think switching to Longhorn is going to make him an automatic contender any more than staying with the Stuckey stuff. He kind of reminds me of Chub Frank in that respect.
