Central Pa is a tough place to race but if you want to be one of the best, you have to go out and race with the best. There's so many things that can be learned on the road with the best sprint car drivers in the world that just can't be learned by running the same 3 tracks 90% of the time. Props to Brent for realizing that and making the jump to compete with the WoO. We will certainly miss him in Central Pa and that's one less very good car we have in the pits every week but I think he's making the right choice for what his goals are. You won't meet a classier guy and his family is the same way. All top notch people. I'm sure there will be plenty of hard knocks but don't be surprised if Brent becomes one of the guys to beat if he's able to stay out there long enough. I wish nothing but the best for Brent and the whole team. I'm certain that he'll make Central Pa proud.

USA built cars now too I believe.
Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

I think he has the potential to be very good. As he stated in the article, qualifying has been a real struggle for him and has likely cost him some wins this past season. He wasn't good early in the night most of the time but he passed as many, if not more, cars than anyone did. He's a very nice guy too. He'll make new fans all across the country. I couldn't be happier for him.

World of Outlaw rules are working good. Can only afford to race for Outlaw money. Local racers be financially damned. God bless Hoosier tires and 2" wickerbills
They don't even know how to spell sprint car

God bless posse tracks for kissing the WoO's butt and letting them write the rules for the posse tracks. More important for the posse to be able to beat the WoO in Pa than make rules that will help keep more local owners racing.

I should've made the "HAHA" bigger, it was simply a joke. No worries. I think this is the first time I've been called out on here, so do I take it to mean I'm "officially" a Hoseheader now. Yes!
Again that's a joke, it's all good. Brent's a great young driver who if he can stay on the tour for a few years will be a competitive and semi-top driver (meaning competing for Top 5 or 3 in points) by the time he's in his late 20s. Great time to get started on that path for him.

This coming season will be a perfect test of your idea (learning from the best) Marks was better than Schuchart & Allen when they were racing in Pa., but they're starting to win for WoO now. So if they beat Marks this season, it will prove your point, if not, disproven
Should be interesting...
