    Pierce Race Cars

    Does Bobby's success in the Summer Nationals help Bob sell more chassis, or will teams just chalk it off as the kid driving for the old man? Not sure how many cars Bob builds on a yearly basis?. I know no where near what a Rocket or Longhorn sells, but thought maybe his recent winning ways might get other teams to consider a Pierce built car in the future.

    Ya should be interesting to see. Yeah he's have a good sn year but theirs not alot of competition this year versus years past. Babb won 13 out of 26 one year an another year he won 15. They would have more Peirce cars out there but his driving a few years ago cost them some business as I know 5 drivers that gave up their Peirce cars because of incidents in the track.

      I'd be curious to know which 5 drivers?

                    All you have too do is go see witch drivers dropped there P cars and moved too others in the lasts 3 years and its More then 5.... When i worked at Hedricks there were times that Bob did not call back for weeks.. Richie dumped his be for the year was 1/2 over....

                      Well babb won. $10000 race in his his Pierce right before he got the Boyer ride... Not many drivers would pass up that opportunity... Feger and Shirley I will not comment on because there are some behind the scenes stuff that I don't want to get into but personally I say good riddance.. Don't know about Schmitt except for Bobby did stuff him in the wall at fairbury but it wasn't intentional... Drivers change chassis like underware... Not a big deal...

                          Whatever happened to the days when racers would actually make the effort to figure their own cars out? Now it seems everybody needs their hand held or a baby sitter to tell them what bolt to turn.

                            Good riddence? That's Peirces attitude too an then you wonder why theirs not many out there. Def its no customer service when your in the business of customer service. An giid riddence to bobby they can't get him a nascrap ride fast enough to get him gone. As I don't follow nascrap

                              Seems as though for the money some are spending on a chassis there would be some tech support that would go along with it. I know a place that does carbs and you can call them day or night 24 hrs for help.
