    What's worse cheating or cussing? Stealing hundreds of thousands or cussing. I'm not saying Thorton cheated but we all know of many televangelist who never cussed without buying the tape or pay for the non disclosure of something worse. Is cussing really a issue?

    Yeah an you know what Thornton is now part of the team with jimmy Owens so they are a two car operation now I don’t see what’s the big deal about it why he couldn’t be Hudson O’Neal’s teammate sounds like to me Ricky Thornton couldn’t work well with Hudson and that’s why all this drama happened this week and I’m not really a fan of Thornton but Ricky got screwed from winning the title on count of the nascar points ordeal that needs to stay outta dirt late model racing period cause Ricky owned an won the season last year and he been leading the points an current points leader this season again and loses his top ride and with ssi an now with another team an has to over come adversity again an the odds to get back on top to me the owner did Thornton wrong an wanted huddy back badly so really Ricky got screwed out of the whole deal but then again Ricky did this to himself an probably showed his tail I’m sure an couldn’t just took the owner at ssi an went with it with Hudson I’m not a Ricky person or fan of the guy but he’s been in the hot seat both times with drama an conversty so that leaves me with this my guys an drivers are my main driver is Jonathan Davenport and my second driver is McDowell then Owens an Tmac who I like an the young man Devin Moran who’s been hot the last two races

    You all need to listen to Kenny Wallace podcast with Mark Richard's owner of Rocket chassis podcast last one hour 35 mins Mark explains his cost of a year for racing his sponsorships how he picks a driver cost of a car, motors drivers and crew costs very informative everyone will see super late model racing is way to expensive I am surprised there are this many teams still running, when sponsorships dry up you will see these cars go away I helped a guy back in 2012 to 2017 era a warrior complete car without motor, Trans was $30,000 dollars or any shocks. You wander why there are now super late left in the this country hardly . You can not justify the cost for the winning. Good motors sre $60,000 and up alone.
