    It was cool to see Buddy get that win and redemption last night. Appreciated his post race interview.
    Shoutout to Bill Balog and his team too. They had a great weekend and have been on a roll as of late. With what happened to him and the emotion he had in his interview that night at Eldora back in July, it’s good to see he and his team bounce back the way they have since.

    Shane Van Gisbergen has been driving a sprintcar owned by the Theobald family. The Theobald family brought the late Bryan Clauson to New Zealand for many years and more recently Christopher Bell and Spencer Bayston have also driven the Theobald family midget on visiting New Zealand.
    The Theobald family sprintcar has used by US drivers when visiting New Zealand with Shane Stewart and also Christopher Bell having been behind the wheel.
    Shane Van Gisbergen was going to drive the Theobald family midget a few summers ago until his Australian supercars team owner prevent it from happening.
    The crew chief for Shane Van Gisbergen when he runs the sprintcar back in New Zealand is former midget racer Shaun insley. Shaun is the brother of Justin Insley the builder of the King midget chassis that Kyle Larson used to win his three Chilli Bowl titles. The Theobald family run a King Chassis with a Toyota engine.
    I would not be surprised if Shane Van Gisbergen runs the Chilli Bowl it will be in a King Chassis with Shaun and Justin Insley on the spinners with the Theobald family also involved along with Trackhouse Racing.

    Gravel might not have led laps since Shitport but with the exception of Knoxville (did it count for points?) he’s been in the top 10 every race. Carson has most definitely been on a roll however Gravels consistency will win out.
    Gravel wins the championship by 75 at least

    When a schedule wanes interests drift. It can be difficult to regain that base. Sharon speedway; I have spent more time this year driving further even when they have 410's. Sharon is a good facility almost criminally underutilized. Tri city raceway park 1.8 hours, Port Royal 4.5 hours, I have bed in port, Lernerville 2 hours, not often, I stand at the gate for national anthem after leaving work and get home next day. You want fans to show up you have to schedule shows and feed the base. Not scheduling for possible rain in season is a guarantees no $ in those seats.

    I personally would love to see BMF ,Excel , Capitol and other chassis start to get a fair share of wins on the big stage . It would be good for dirt racing as a whole . Oh i left out BWRC Icons . I really expect Chris Madden and Penski to team up and develop a new chassis in the next 3 to 5 years . Earlier they tried to buy BWRC out but Barry wouldn't sell due to his son and daughter not being gaureteed a job after 3 years . I think that was a mistake on Barry's part

      It’s really difficult to play with the 2 giants in the chassis game without deep pockets and a engineer to work tirelessly on developing a winning car then you must have a top driver to verify everything you are doing is valid. Most of all other brands do not have that budget or capacity to make it competitive!

      @@JimmyJolly-d8v And don’t forget Rumley played apart in the Rocket XR-1 in its beginning. It really comes down to budget to hire engineer and a top driver to develop the car. They are a handful of new car builders now but none have the budget or drivers to advance other than Wells and Overton. And Wells doesn’t need to turn a profit with car sales to keep the doors open.
