Richards doesn't run well there so what's the reason behind picking him? Hasn't even been running consistent enough in the Lucas series. Same with TMac.

Bloomquist or Babb for sure. Those guys seem hot right now. Hard to argue against overton and marlar!

I want to see someone that doesn't immediately come to mind win this years Dream. A Casey Roberts or Freddy Carpenter type driver.

Bloomquist, McDowell, Dennis Erb. All three are very good running the middle or bottom and don't need to rely on a big cushion to win at Eldora. The cushion is faster, and more exciting, but also very difficult to master for 100 laps. One mistake and the race is over.

I'm as big a Marlar fan as anyone, but Mike has never quite gotten a handle on the big E during the feature races. Good qualifying. Good in heats. Not so good in features. He's said as much before.

My picks as well. They're running so strong everywhere they go right now.

But I would love to see Marlar or Devin Moran win it.

Snake X3

I appreciate all the answers. With so many drivers running well I figured there would be a wide range of names tossed out there. Considering his track record you'd expect Bloomer to get to be the top choice. However, after that the choices are very varied and that's what you'd expect. It really makes you wonder how in a season where no one driver has been over the top dominant how DoD has a unanimous consensus on their top driver poll almost every week for 2 years.

I counted up quickly and didn't double check but thus far the results...
Bloomer - 14
B-Shep - 7
Babb - 5.5
Pierce - 5
T-Mac - 3
Erb - 3
Richards - 2
Overton - 2
Owens - 2
Mc Dowell - 2
Shirley - 1
Marlar - 1.5
EPJ - 1
JD - 1

At least we can't agree on anything. LOL

Good point on Marlar. I just think he's having one of those seasons where you can't count him out. He ran well at I-80 which is a big track. He won Knoxville last year. It will be interesting to see how he does at the Show Me.

With so many guys running well it may be harder than usual for a true dark horse to win it. It would be nice if there was an upset though.

I'm actually surprised more people didn't pick Erb after winning last year and finishing 2nd at the World.

If Richards can't win in the Rocket house ride??? Shepherd has no chance because Richards is miles ahead in ability

I seem to recall Sheppard winning the DTWC a couple times. The guy can wheel. Richards just isn't good at Eldora.

Didn't Shep win a pair of prelims one year at Eldora? I can't remember if it was the Dream or the World, but he didn't end up making the field that year. Maybe it was 2015 because they changed the rules after that.

I don't think he will win it, but if he does maybe he'll get a chance to lap the entire field this time.

Something just occurred to me....last year at the Dream didn't Moyer say that it was going to be his last one and he said if he had to pick someone to take over his ride that he was thinking of Thornton? With Thornton being a free agent and the lawsuit stuff over anyone hear if he might end up in the 21 for the Dream?

I'm kind of surprised no one has included O'Neal, Lanigan, Mars, Madden or Clanton in their picks yet.

zach51
05-25-2017, 10:13 AM
Moyer said he'd pick Thornton to take his ride Snake? I must have missed that tidbit.....

I'd say the chances of anybody getting in his car in the next 2-3 years is slim to none.

He's started 3 Dreams and has a 27th, 26th and a 7th. He also has one world 100 start where he finished 23rd. Not really the kinda stats to make him a favorite. J/w

Thornton was driving his modified. And I'm pretty sure that is what he said. He said Jr had his own stuff but after Jr it would be Thornton.

I hope you're right though. I hope Moyer keeps going.

You pointed out a 7th and a bunch of dnf. He is in the best equipment of his career. Not one of the favorites, but it would be no shock if he did very well.

He started deep, and drove to 7th with one of the faster cars that night, I can see him winning one of these races.

We haven't seen a back to back winner since the dreams existence. I feel like Erb has a hold of this place like no one else has, winning the dream and driving to a strong 2nd at the world in the same car. I'm taking him to win it.....again.
