WTF , I just got off of JEI's web page and seen the writeup on Donny using a JEI in Oskaloosa, sounds like it worked pretty good, How about his new teammate, doesnt Paul pilot a EAGLE? so is this the end for the JNJ and Schatz? , Im just confused? maybe JEI can weld up a ladder for "The Kid" ? better luck next time ! who's the chassis of choice in 08?

The way Schatz has been running this year, he could build his own Lego chassis and still win.....

A better question might be "will Eagle chassis be around in '08"? I heard a lot of stories and rumors about them at Nats. I noticed even the Dude who was one of the guys I consider that made the Eagle real popular has switched to JEI. Maybe Eagle1 can give us his version and settle any rumors.

Whilst team 15 might try a JEI, it could only be to keep J&J on their toes. If I'm team 15, I aint changing nothing. There might be a connection between the crew chief and JEI but the roots run deep between the team 15 boss & J&J. everyone trys the other brand of cola from time to time, just to see if it tastes different. just my nickles worth

I did see it in person, he was using a JEI. They announced he was just testing one. He also broke a torsion arm. (I realize the track was rough) but I guess if they switch they'll have to still use J&J arms!

Usually Eagle has a chassis sitting at the speedwaymotors booth. I had seem a Maxim stashed underneath the grandstand. Didnt see either this year.

have you ever priced an eagle chassis? just for a frame you still have to pay an arm and a leg. would you pay more for a car that isn't proving itself or less for a car that is winning races? the choice is simple to me!


do it in the dirt

so, is Paulie gonna try a JNJ?, how about Saldana , is he gonna drag a 89 gambler out, and see if it is the hot whip? , I got a feeling someone is searching, and only searching for #1, the Eagle ,Max, JEI and JNJ really arnt that different in price ,although royalties come with a price, Donny has had a pretty good thing with JNJ, but , who really has the better SLED? and think about tommarrow?

If you check yhe Speedway Motors catalog, the Eagle kit and the J & J kit are exactly the same price......

Saw this year's raffle car and it is a JEI chassis with a Shaver engine. It is a real beauty, all top shelf components as well.
