Truck RACE thread --- Chicago

WOW!

I'm bummed for JHN, but damn Moffitt and HRE needed that. Engine let go at the last minute.

 

[Mispeedway15]

Wow blows the engine with a lap to go.

Atta boy Brett!

 

[KodiakRusty89]

I'm glad I put the race on!! It was completely off my radar but I got an update on my phone about 45 minutes ago and flipped to it!!

 

[Efisher131]

Somebody, sponsor this 16 team

 

[2 Sweet]

Hopefully the 16 will get the sponsorship they need. Glad to see them win

 

[DUN24]

Two teams desperate for funding, two drivers with questionable futures. Hurts to lose one like that, but how about winning one like that?!

 

[Kiante]

Man, I feel for John Hunter.

Shout out to Josh Wise as well, he's been coaching a lot of drivers in John Hunter and even Scott Speed. Good on him.

 

[DUN24]

JHN doesn’t know when they’ll be back in the truck? Did I hear that right? ****.

 

[StandOnIt]

Sure thought Nemo had that one.

 

[DUN24]

Sure thought Nemo had that one.

He deserved it, that’s for sure.

Its crazy how HRE and NEMCO been performing, but they cannot get consistent backing.

I think Toyota should step in and help HRE out, this **** is depressing.

 

[CodeMan125]

The fact that Moffit cannot get full time backing is crazy. The guy has been killing it this Season

 

[2 Sweet]

The best two trucks in the field tonight are both struggling to find sponsorship. Not a good thing

 

[JBone88]

JHN is too good a driver to be stuck driving the garbage he’s in. Most complete race and that kid has run and the motor blows up a lap from VL. That sucks.

Good for Moffitt. That team needed that. Hopefully they can race the rest of the season they can win the championship.

 

[StandOnIt]

That is one way the poor pitiful Paula way, another is that the changes Nascar instituted made it so underfunded trucks can be competative

 

[DaBiff1618]

Sucks for JHN he earned that one. Toyota and KBM need to get their **** together and help this 16 truck battle for the championship. Moffitt is eons better then the TRD ride buyers at KBM and the only guy that can challenge sauter this year.

Yeah, someone needs to show Front Row Joe mercy and sign John.

 

[StandOnIt]

Gragson "need more grip"

 

[JBone88]

Yeah, someone needs to show Front Row Joe mercy and sign John.

Sounds like the 8 truck is parked for a while. Such a bummer, Joe does a lot with very little and JHN drives the wheels off that truck

 

[TexasRaceLady]

Really bummed for JHN.
But congratulations to Moffitt -- right place, right time.

 

[FLRacingFan]

Sounds like Moffitt/HRE only need sponsorship for Eldora, Bristol, and Homestead now so that's positive.

 

[StandOnIt]

Gas man is riding in the back of the truck now

Josh Wise as a driver coach, smirks

 

[kkfan91]

Josh Wise as a driver coach, smirks

Why? Josh is a talented driver, he was never in great equipment at the Cup level.

 

[StandOnIt]

 

[DUN24]

lol, kill the gasman anyways!

 

[Revman]

OEM beat spec. 10 million.....no, 20 million. Moffit's team is broke, and they are the Toyota OEM. Thought that those were too expensive until Zippy Jr. spilled that that was a lie. The only way to make it better would have been to have John Hunter's car blow, but instead he ran out of gas. Got to see him pout anyway.

 

[Revman]

I think Toyota should step in and help HRE out, this sh!t is depressing.

Why? Isn't the point of all of this spec **** to enable everybody to play? The series kicks Toyota in the groin, and you are asking them to step in? No ****** way.

 

[Revman]

Really bummed for JHN.
But congratulations to Moffitt -- right place, right time.

Right motor.

Strange that the races they haven't sold are probably the biggest truck audiences of the year outside of Daytona.
