      Figured that would happen. Rooster is really good in the Swartz stuff. Didn't figure the pierce would last long. When I saw him run the Pierce, he did not look comfortable with it. Did not look like it would do what he wanted it too.
      I think there should be lifeguards in the genepool.

        I think he had top five finishes each time out...you'd think he'd give it more than 7 races

          At Florence specifically, I would say he was 3 to 4 tenths slower. He tried all the tricks he knew.

            Yep, really telling at Florence. Probably one of his best tracks

              That Pierce just did not work out for Linville, it never did run as good as the Swartz car for him. They could never get the power to the ground on those dang dry slick tracks.

                    They must not be as smart as the toll cool one on setting the car up. I've seen the kid drive that car on the top or bottom and win it and against some pretty good competetion.

                        Does someone from the chassis builder go to the track for a guy like linville to get the car going ?

                          to answer Bob, I don't know if pierce does or not, I know Audie has went before to help. That said if your close many chassis builders will stop by and help you get lined out, some charge some don't. Typically your smaller builders would be more apt to just show up and try to help.

                            With Bobby racing70-80 nights and being Bob is his crew, it would probably be tough to do.
