TheRetroStyle Posted February 21, 2018 Author Share Posted February 21, 2018 Agreed. Steven has been in the DDS 3 times before, and all 3 times in which he had one of the fastest qualifying times. Had he won back in 2016, he would've had one of the fastest times out of anyone in the main field. And with how much he's improved recently, it would be a huge snub for him to not be in the main field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Migues Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Personally if Armando doesn’t win I think he should be in DDS since he’s never even been in that. I hope Chuck makes it in the WF, and I could see Becky getting Mutt for WF as well. I don’t see them taking Colton or any other digger driver or maxd driver out of those trucks for Mutt. Also if Sipes wins his tour I honestly don’t see Blackwell getting a spot, he only competed last year because Sipes couldn’t so I don’t see them putting Blackwell in this year. I’m excited to see more announcements as well as tour winners Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MoreMonsterJam Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 I mean Linsey has been driving Scooby Doo more longer then Steven Sims. So I doubt Steven Sims will be in the main field considering he is just 'subbing' for Haley Gauley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alford Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 55 minutes ago, MoreMonsterJam said: more longer then The length of time of which you've been driving clearly doesn't matter in determining the field considering Neil was snubbed for years and Pablo hasn't been officially listed since 2014. I agree with Scooby-Doo being in the main field (thinking they may put Cynthia in it?) because it's a HUGE attraction for their casual fanbase, but Linsey just hasn't had the exposure yet.

Sergeant Politeness Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Tom Meents and Scott Buetow have been announced Also there’s apparently only 24 spots? I’m guessing since the WF will be traveling again this is downsizing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRetroStyle Posted February 22, 2018 Author Share Posted February 22, 2018 Okay so considering the fact that we're about to hit a point where a bunch of competitors are gonna be announced, I guess I'll put my DDS predictions. Monster Mutt Rottweiler - Brad Allen Over Bored - Jamey Garner Obsessed - Eric Swanson El Toro Loco - Mark List Bounty Hunter - Austin Minton Scooby-Doo - Linsey Read Megalodon - Trent Montgomery Zombie - Travis Mowrey (Rookie of the Year if Brandon doesn't count. I mean, have you seen his freestyles?) Jester - Matt Pagliarulo El Toro Loco - Kayla Blood Grave Digger - Brandon Vinson (Rookie of the Year if he counts) Soldier Fortune Black Ops - Tony Ochs Stinger Unleashed - Zane Rettew Grave Digger - Krysten Anderson Pirate's Curse - Camden Murphy Pirate's Curse - Cory Rummel DDS Winner: Grave Digger - Brandon Vinson or Monster Mutt Rottweiler - Brad Allen They should really consider increasing the size of this field again, because it took me a good hour to decide on this.

Nick Migues Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Here’s what im thinking on the DDS: 1. Krysten Anderson- Digger 2. Armando Castro- El Toro 3. Ami Houde- Zombie 4. Collette Davis- Wonder Woman 5. Kayla Blood- El Toro 6. Myranda Cozad- Scooby 7. Tony Ochs- Black Ops 8. Brandon Vinson- Digger 9. Jared Eichelberger- Max-D 10. Pirates Curse- Camden Murphy 11. Rage- Cory Rummell 12. Stinger- Zane Rettew 13. Jester- Matt Pagliarulo 14. Bernard Lyght- Alien 15. Mat Dishman- Rammunition 16. Blue Thunder- Matt Cody Or Over Bored- Jamey Garner im not a fan of this lineup,but l also don’t expect a huge independent presence either. Of course they’re gonna put in their drivers first, so which ever ones don’t make it in the main field will fill up spots in the DDS. I also think it’s very possible for Mark List to be on this list as well. I think Eric Swanson and Cynthia Gauthier will move up to the main field this year, but I also wouldn’t be surprised if Eric is in DDS again simply because he didn’t have a full schedule this year. Obviously for the TT central, everyone in the top 3 is already WF competitors so basically everyone else is either out or in the DDS so I think they’ll use the rest of their drivers but I don’t think Jack and Trent will be in it either. On the east and west, I think Sipes and Tristan will win their tours pretty much placing everyone else in the DDS or with no invites. across the board I just see the DDS this year as a place for the Feld drivers who missed the WF from mainly the arena tours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cp2013 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 now that we're doing the DDS predictions: Rammunition - Mat Dishman Over Bored - Jamey Garner Stinger Unleashed - Zane Rettew Obsessed - Eric Swanson Pirate's Curse - Cory Rummel Jester - Matt Pagliarulo El Toro Loco - Mark List El Toro Loco - Armando Castro Grave Digger - Krysten Anderson grave Digger - Brandon Vinson Megalodon - Trent Montgomery Xtermagator - J.R McNeal Blue Thunder - Matt Cody Max-D - Jared Eichelberger Zombie - Ami Houde Wonder Woman - Collette Davis Winner: Eric Swanson - Obsessed or Corey Rummel - Pirate's Curse I put a decent amount of Indie trucks on here, they deserve the spots over some of the mediocre Feld drivers even though some of the spots will most likely get taken by Feld drivers and make the field just a bit slower overall. I though Rummel or Swanson were the best choices because of how well they do in racing (especially Swanson considering he nearly won it last year).

Brad Kerlin Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Here is my full DDS Predictions 1. Grave Digger- Krysten Anderson 2. Grave Digger- Brandon Vinson 3. Max-D- Jared Eichelberger 4. El Toro Loco- Armando Castro 5. El Toro Loco- Kayla Blood 6. Pirates Curse- Camden Murphy 7. Pirates Curse- Cory Rummel 8. Rammunition- Mat Dishman 9. Scooby Doo- Linsey Read 10. Wonder Woman- Collette Davis 11. Zombie- Travis Mowery 12. Soldier Fortune Black Ops- Tony Ochs 13. Stinger Unleashed- Zane Rettew 14. Over Bored- Jamey Garner 15. Megalodon- Trent Montgomery 16. Rottweiler- Brad Allen Winner: Kayla Blood, El Toro Loco Only reason I didn't put Mark on here was because he kinda is the least popular with the fans on the TT Tours right now. Feld may want another ETL in the field since right now it seems like only Chuck and Becky are going in and he did pretty well for himself last year. Anyways, I put Kayla as the winner because in my field she is the second fastest on Vegas behind Jared. And, that's how everything mostly happens... mostly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Migues Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 The thing with Dishman is he’s never even made a pass or even displayed at Vegas so I wouldn’t really pick him as a winner just yet on that. Just because he’s won racing twice doesn’t mean anything, Chicago isn’t the same as the Vegas J hook. The truck should handle Vegas well tho, those ram trucks make huge power. Also I’m hopeful for Eric being in but I’m a little skeptical as it seems they give indies about 2 years in Vegas before either being promoted to main field or not being invited at all, and on top of of that Eric didn’t have a full schedule this year as well so I’m hopeful but unsure there.

Just because i think he isnt gonna win doesnt mean i think he wont do well. He's got plenty of power its just controlling it through the turn and we havent seen him do that yet. I dont have Eric because he didnt do anything really memorable on his tour. I have Kayla as my winner because she qualified fourth last year and that does mean something in my predictions because only Jared has been faster than her on this track. Also, if Feld does "decide" a winner then she is the best choice. You know why? Once she gets better then she is the perfect role model for the fans. Honestly. Its just my predictions. If you have an issue with them then thats your issue, not mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRetroStyle Posted February 23, 2018 Author Share Posted February 23, 2018 I didn't put Collete on my predictions list because it's actually possible for her to get in the big show. Man of Steel got that exact treatment back in 2014, where it competed only in arenas for the entire first quarter, and ended up going into the main field. Considering how Wonder Woman is owned by DC, like Man of Steel is, such an occurrence could happen again. The reason why I didn't put Armando on my list either is because he has put Tristan's lead on his TTS tour in jeopardy. Four to six more overall wins, and he's got the lead. And I think he can do it.

Nick Migues Posted February 23, 2018 Share Posted February 23, 2018 The thing is with Wonder Woman tho is with Man Of Steel they didn’t throw a rookie into the WF. Plus being in the DDS still gives the truck WF exposure which is basically what they want. I don’t see them puttin her or anyone else in that truck in the main field this year Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
