Anyone know what the China man told him about this? Pretty cool story really! Only numbers he has ever ran on his cars 90/ number on his Dads car 1st car he ever drove. 17 on his 1st car, 18 all the way to the 0 after his trip to China!

Read about this recently. Chinaman said something along the lines of 8 represents infinity and when you put a 1 in front of it, it is the most powerful number in the world. On the way home Bloomquist decided that 0 should be even more powerful since the entire universe is made up of zeros/circles. But he keeps the 18 on the car just in case the Chinaman was right.

He talks about it in this Youtube interview. https://youtu.be/bU5pptLPmqc
Read about this recently. Yeah, that was in the racing news article, but I believe they got it from this interview, because they mention the interview in the article.

In math zero is the origin. It's the starting point or reference from which everything else is measured.

Zero...or null, by definition, is also neither positive or negative...which rules out 100% of us on 4m. 😁

Zero is the balance of positive and negative, much like Yin and Yang. If you recall back in the early days of Bloomquist running the zero, it encircled the Yin and Yang symbol.
