Davenport this season

[K1ngCat]

Yeah. The Wheatland prelims is where he earned his 3rd victory last year.

And whatever happened at lap 50 in the Dream quite likely kept him from winning.

I was setting there thinking he was in perfect position,just riding along waiting for the end,I believe he burnt the tires up trying to get back to the leaders,he really ran well last year on the dry tracks.

I know he's leading Lucas points and is still one of the top drivers in the sport. But what is everyone's take on his performance this year? Have a lot of the guys stepped their game up, have rules changes slowed him down some, or is it just not possible to duplicate his season he had last year? It's still early in the year, but I thought he would have won this weekend for sure.

42 races 14 wins 22 top 5s 2 top 10s a 11th 16th 20th 23rd

I have nothing against JD, and he did great last year. He is also doing quite well this year. However, I am always happy to see different drivers get wins instead of the same two all the time. Just look at the celebration from the fans with someone like Erb winning a big race.

I know his numbers look great, but you can see that he does not have the dominant speed he did last year. And 5 or 6 of those wins came in Arizona or in regional events driving Randy Weaver's car.

Maybe JD should hire Weaver to set up the car???? His winning % is higher in it than his own!

The 2016 Streak starts now... Maybe.

I don't really remember dominant speed, that implies he started on the pole, led every lap and was never seen or heard from again till the checkers... It seemed to me he had to fight pretty hard for quite a few of those "Late" season wins, like at FALS or even the Dream, both races he was trading paint right till the end. And like it has already been pointed out, the streak started in June, its now June 14th, so..... Technically he's having a better season than last year already.

This thread is as bad as the Bloomers done ones.

JD is still having a good year, and always in the hunt. Bad luck, mistakes, just getting beat, brakes/breaks, sh!t happens. He is still in the hunt no matter what and is far from losing his edge. Are others starting to catch up, I think so. Did the rule changes help, probably. But he's still one of the top 3 in the country. And at anytime could be back to #1.
