Trucks Going Home

[71Fan]

Rain Out

Paddy Rodenbeck, Ken Schrader, and Dennis Setzer are going home

Have no idea who Rodenbeck is so I'm guessing he;s dang new. Bummer that he doesn't get the chance. Better luck next time.

As for Ken......This really bums me out. Ken is a racer's racer. Any car any time any track.

And Dennis.....well, never was a big fan but racing is all he knows and it's just a shame he didn't get the chance to run.

As for the Trucks themselves.....What do you like or dislike about them?

I like that they are boxers that rely on mechanical grip to a greater degree than the Cup or NW cars. I like that the bumpers line up, and I like that they pretty much flat on the sides, both of which make beating and banging easier on the machines.

What I don't like is the front splitter. Way too many cut tires. And, I don't like them on the longer tracks except for the fact that drafting still makes a difference.

Anyways, that's the view from here............

Must of been a bit of buying and selling going on as Benson is now listed as in.

I'm guessing Paddy Rodenbeck sprung from the loins of Mr. and Mrs. Rodenbeck.

Whoops, meant to say Schrader is now in.

Don't get down on me too bad eh? You'll get older one day too :-)

I like the Trucks. Not much to NOT like about the trucks really...
