As a car owner I’d say you would have to be crazy to get rid of RTJ !
Not when you can pay some kid less and still win a couple along the way.
@@hjr2450I don’t think Hudson will drive for less money than Ricky. Remember Hudson has a championship that means more money
@@tilemikemy guess is Hudson probably brings more money. I think the split was all about money
Also, big props to Ryan Timms last night going from new track record, to junking the car, and finishing 4th in the feature!
The car wasn’t junked. Same car
@mariebeasley1269 even more impressive!
@@TomBoi big USAC fan. He is very good. They have a lot of young talented
Just a heads up that the Summer Nationals Butler show is actually tomorrow night and Crystal is Friday.
hmm ah the michigan tracks, those names take me back to when I first started going to races, and we had a paved 3/8ths 5 miles from here, this was early 1990s before we had pictures we could just go look up to see what the places looked like, those were some of the tracks that the auto value valvoline sod winged sprint series ran, though they did both dirt and paved, always thought crystal was this really sparkling fresh paved track, you know how a big place like irp or one of the fancy tracks on tv look, grass is always greener on the otherside, and thought of crystal pepsi cuz of the name, then I see about 3 years ago its a 40 to 50 something year old dirt track , not far from a lake
and always though all the other tracks they ran would be nicer then ours we had here, which come to find out wasn't necissarly the case, took three years to see a dirt race when we finnaly went to eldora which was not near as built up as it is today, but still was a bigger place to see the big time series, but I still thought of it as just a local track, not knowing when they said it was the fastest clay oval it actually had the record before vollusa took the record, and didn't relize till a few months ago going though the old programs from the times we went there back then that I saw racers that turned out to be actual ledgends of the dirt track, like jake hewit, tim engler, and kieth koffman, kenny jacobs, van gurley, and scot kalita to name a few that were part of the series at the time we saw the allstar circut of champions, oh and mark and steve kinser.
I always wanted to see dirt racing, as we just went to baer field and avilla that were paved at the time, once my cousin did go to bryan ohio but it was ran down and it was a year before they shuttered the whole thing, though butler was also not far away and we had gas city montpieler and kokomo not far away either but liked the big tracks, I still do when there is a good fight for the lead, kinser fan myself, and kreg isn't bad but hes not mark or his dad, these days usually a fan of sunshine, or zeb wise, parker price miller or justin peck, but just the same will cheer on kids and grandkids of ledgend, and watch larson, day, and seevey now that he started in wing cars, also kind of like cj leery and brady bacon as well as spenser bayston, zane devault, and chase stockon, and will clap for chris windom as he does soo many forms of racing, as well as buddy kofoid
midgets though I like tmez, and varies with the day.
silvercrown depends whos racing, but like bischak roarig ferns, leary, or one of the guys from indiana, I also like grant, kody swanson, and bacon if its a dirt race, hes pretty good on dirt and is the promotor of the voglar classic at winchester and talked with him a little after it was over one year.
There's more to the story than any of us on here will ever know! No one but SSI and rtj have the real answers,
I just want the racing started so we can see if RTJ out performs his old team. Thanks for another great show Justin!
20RT to Koehler Motorsports for the remainder of the of the year. Picked up a couple new marketing partners too. Pretty cool story line that Jimmy was one of those guys Ricky looked up to coming up in racing!
You are absolutely correct sir!! I'm a huge Jimmy Owens fan and happy to have RTJ on board! Let's go Koehler Motorsports!! 🏁✔️💯
Brian Carter ”Y'all can run wherever you want this week."
9 of 12 Outlaws "Nah, were good, thanks!"
With a couple big races in the next few weeks, I’m guessing there was equipment saving going on from the teams that didn’t run. 🤷🏼♂️
I wish I could build a team just to put RTJ in my piece! Idk the ins and outs but how do you drop a dude that literally wins everything
Everything but a championship LOL
@@itsskaii7315your comment is weak. Try harder.
@@itsskaii7315 if not for this Mickey Mouse championship format he woulda won the title by 1000+ points…..
Gonna be rooting for RTJ now more than ever. O'Neill is starting to really smell like trouble.
I wish RTJ all the best oneal Not so much!!!
Rtj bout to have a chip on his shoulder, dude gonna win with one hand out the window😂
Have you seen the latest info on RTJ? Just seen he is teaming up with jimmy owens and koehler motorsports.
I always understood the Rumley deal was a place holder until Hudson found something more permanent. I don’t know why so many are surprised he didn’t stick with that. I think people are still being blinded by those salacious rumors that turned out not to be true and just want to be mad at the kid.
I understand the way this all went down was less than ideal, especially for RTJ. He’s a real talent so I know he’ll land a good ride. Excited to see what the New Deal can do with SSI!
Not a RTJ guy but yanking someone’s rude who has been so successful and near the top of the points in multiple series this abruptly is insane
Good day Justin
None of this will matter in a month. Or when green one falls. I'm here for the racing. If I wanted drama, I'd watch Young and the Restless.
That's my favorite too 😂
Or nascar
Victor Newman should field a race team!
@@johnnyhotshoe1292 I agree, the way HE wants
@@Trackratz-zl9di nope, not going to do it
I'd buy a ticket just to hear the fan response at the next Lucas race...if they came near me!
Herman says dirt late model is in trouble getting too expensive, your thoughts?
@@Daveco82 Everything is more expensive. Have you bought a pit pass lately? Thanks Brandon.
You all show listen to Kenny Wallace podcast with Mark Richard's he explains the cost for him yearly then talks about his sponsorship making up the difference. He also tells driver and crew get 50% of winnings of race. 1 hour 35 mins. For this podcast talks about his start in racing and about his son Josh.
Yes it is crazy expensive that is why i would a driver that brings in the most money l, that guy is RTJ!
Going faster costs money.
Wide bore engines are kind of exspensive, no?
Oneal is the cancer of late model racing. The dude cant keep a ride but knows how to steal one.
what do u mean he can’t keep a ride. Lol…..He walked a way from the most successful ride in Dirt Late model racing after having over a $1 millillion year with a World 100 and Lucas Oil Championship year
And now joining another good team
I'm a Bobby Pierce fan but why you get rid of rtj is stupid and O'Neal is iffy at best
Justin summer national schedule is a little off bud, it's today at Hartford July 10th, thursday Butler July 11th, friday July 12th Crystal, Saturday July 13th Oakshade, Sunday finale at Wayne County July 14th
Not much of a LM fan but the obsession with chassis builders is so weird to me while I rarely hear anyone care about engine builders. It seems that some think the chassis make is more important than driver talent, very strange imo
Championships he got a give me!! Rtj was 600 points ahead
Butler thursday,
Crystal friday oakshade Saturday
after yesterday show i told my sis we need to buy extra mega millions ticket so we can get rtj back in a car 😀
Both will have rides and sponsorship, time will show where they go or stay with possibly
Question, do you use sprint car ratings for sprint car data?
For the money stuff, absolutely. Bill does a great job.
I’m going to say there won’t be much of a change in results and we can put to bed that RTJ is the greatest thing to ever happen to dirt track racing as some claim he’s at least.5-.75 of a second faster than every driver out there and AB gets the credit he deserves
Justin any updates on new merch? I know that's not a cheap option
Soon
Good thing in my fantasy dirt with my buddies I got davenport and rtj idk how they let me pick those two 😂 but rtj better get in something fast and strong
Its only a question of what snake oil Oneal selling. Theres gotta be something up when a young gun cant keepo a team.
@@scottb9868 wow u sound dumb. o’neal can keep a team he left the rocket one on his own and the only reason rtj even got in the ssi car was bc huddy had to get shoulder surgery! 🤦🏻♂️
Is the reign of the Matts over in big block mods? It feels like for a while it'd either be Shepherd or Williamson (or stewie when he wasn't doing NASCAR) winning all the races, but now they're started to get caught again.
Last nights track got locked down by lap 26. Matt was running 2nd and took a chance to pass but the outside wasn’t there.
If you think that’s possible you haven’t been watching enough NE mods in the last 3 years.
@@blacksheepexpedition6347lap 26? Try lap 20.
@@dylanneff9080 Thanks for the clarification ..
RTJ will not be driving my late model. Mainly because I don’t own a late model.
Any truth that he could go to Kohler Motorsports with Jimmy Owens
I have seen that is were he is going
It's official per their site
Apparently.
Ssi is still but it's no Rumbley program they better swap to Rockets 😂 Real talk tho ssi program I'd say isn't exactly on par to Kevin's.
RTJ IS THE BETTER DRIVER
Hudson O'Neil is overrated and this move will back fire, I am not a fan of Thornton either, but he's way better than the so called Real Deal!
New Deal ...real deal is don O'Neal
I'm not waiting. Calling BS now.
I liked Huddy but he's in a crap shoot damned if he wins damned if he loses.. I'm just hoping not to find out Huddy back doored RTJ
Burns hardest decision and worse decision look a awful a like.
Did I say lap 9 yesterday….i meant lap 23. If Williamson didn’t leave the rubber (notice at what lap during the feature the track rubbered up) to try and pass a lap car I would have been dead on with the winner. You mite as well pay to watch paint dry then pay to watch a NE Mod race. You’re getting the same value. Can someone who’s in the niche of a niche sport tell me why my once beloved mods are so terrible to watch now? I feel it’s gotten really bad these last few years.
More sprint car content and less late model coverage please!!!
Sprint cars need to make some news for that to happen 😂😂
RTJ/SSI is the story of the entire country right now, so I wouldnt hold your breath.
Why would you expect more content from a less popular form of racing?
If you want sprint car news make your own show
It's called news
Fuck sprint cars
I wish I could build a team just to put RTJ in my piece! Idk the ins and outs but how do you drop a dude that literally wins everything
