Has to be a record since the WoO started, talking about any top 5 team or even top ten team to have three DNFs in a row in the history of the WoO.  And he's the defending WoO champ, and still after all this leading the points---barely,, or maybe he isn't anymore.  Will have to check. But 3 in a row.  Better get to confession soon Big Cat or just get to church.  A guy could get to worry so much he might have another one.  

 Lawlessness and liberalism equals Hell.  NY City, 
Detroit, Seattle, Chicago, Minnepolis, etc. We saw it. 
Burning hundreds of buildings, a thousand assaults and 
dozens of murders. Getting worser and worser.

Maybe you are correct, but I would find this hard to believe in the 42 year history

I think Joey went through a string as a top 5 driver where he had a couple engine failures and a wreck a number of years ago. As far as a defending champ, recently no because Donny has basically set that standard for over a decade outside of Daryn Pittman. In 42 years I am sure it has happened before but not recently. I doubt church or confession will do any good for this matter as performance wise he seems to still be at the top. I have been to the past two Outlaw races (Attica & Lernerville) and he has 1 of the top 3 cars in the field, and at Terre Haute he had charged from 12th to 2nd until the tire issue happened. The two engine issues are unforeseen as I do not think they have had engine issues the past 2-3 season. He obviously has the talent and the team to get the job done, sometimes Shit happens. Only way to correct it is to just get to the next race. He seems to have a good attitude about things and is taking things in stride and staying postiive about it. 

This stuff happens.  On first night out on our car ignition switch went out in feature.  Second night out either not enough stagger or shock mount broke, got up high in loose stuff and hit wall.  After $1,000 and 25  hrs work a mud clod went thru radiator after smashing baffle .  Slowed down because water was spraying out of radiator and was hit by another car and spun into wal breaking frame in 2 places.  Who knows when it will stop.

I believe they said on DirtVision that if Donny won Lernerville on Tuesday night and Brad finished 2nd, that Donny would regain the points lead by 2 points.    Haven't checked that, but I think I remember Johnny Gibson saying that.   

It seems RW is back with the team and getting things back to what DS is used to. If so, the competition is in trouble. Let's see how team 15 does through the pa swing. 

Brad is behind 4 points right now. 80 points separates the top 5 and if Gravel hadn't skipped a race he'd be in there making it 6 cars separated by only 80...

We'll find out more tonight!
