Babb in the 0???

[chathamracefan]

I heard this rumor from a few different people at farmer city last night. Anyone know if it has any legs? I know they are friendly and Bloomer hangs out at his place when Lucas runs at Macon. Just curious.

[Hoosier_Dirt]

Dont see it happening,but who knows.

[t4g2]

Would not surprise me. I've heard same for awhile. 3 years ago in interview with Bloomer they asked if he was to put anyone who would he put in his car an babb was his first choice.

[kazual]

Opinion only, be surprising to me if it happened. Babb is fiercely independent with his operation, race schedule, and how he prioritizes his time.

[zyoung25]

That's kind of how I feel about it. Babb is too organized to want to mess with that circus.

[Illtsate32]

Maybe hel put Schmitt in it for a few top 20s...

[Crossbones]

Fiercely independent? Didn't he drive for Bill Moyer, CBR and GVS in the past? I can see Babb driving the Bloomquist car in big events until Bloomquist gets back.

[Shiny Side Up 18]

Babb driving for Bloomquist at the Dream would set him up better for the Summer Nationals since he wouldn't have to thrash to get his equipment turned around quickly.

[Highside Hustler25]

Shannon and Scott seem two total opposites in more ways than one but you never know. Stranger things have happened. If anyone steps into Scott's ride for the Dream, my guess is it would be Weiss.

[pierceFAN]

I don't think anybody but Scott will drive that car. He will be back in action soon

[dirtcrazy4u]

Maybe DOD's top notch reporters could get out there and find out.

[ZERO25]

Somebody needs to!

I've never seen a race team be so hush-hush about their drivers condition!

[Illtsate32]

Clickbait...

[huskerdirt]

Fiercely independent? Didn't he drive for Bill Moyer, CBR and GVS in the past? I can see Babb driving the Bloomquist car in big events until Bloomquist gets back.

It’s been 10 years since he drove for somebody and ran a national tour. So yes..... fiercely independent is a perfectly accurate description.

[george w]

You all are crazy ..... Bronson's got it locked up 😁😁😁😁

Some one finally points that out.

[Illtsate32]

Not sure how much Ed gives Bloomer but I wouldnt put too much stock into that just because hes a mutual sponsor Ed has sponsored lots of cars...

[huskerdirt]

Common thread: Ed Petroff

That literally means nothing.

[t4g2]

It will be what it will be. I know who it def won't be.

[stewart fan]

Dont think ed is a small sponsor either his name is getting bigger and bigger on scots car

[RayCook53fan]

On a side note, Cody Mallory was with The Eric Hudkins Jared Hawkins team at North GA last night.

[golddirt]

Who? Oh the dead beat daddy

[Illtsate32]

Side note mad respect for Eddie hes been in the game for 40 years great contributor to dirt racing...

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Who? Oh the dead beat daddyHow do you know?

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Clickbait...You took the bait.

[Illtsate32]

^^^^^ so what.

[Hoosier_Dirt]

Dont think ed is a small sponsor either his name is getting bigger and bigger on scots car

Yeah, Ed bought Bloomers latest truck/trailer

[kazual]

The Bloomquist situation could be pretty complex at this point. What sponsorship obligations would Scott have and how would him being unable to fulfill those obligations factor in? I see Scott as a person that demands control and is a persistent micro manager. That isn’t a dig, its just the facts that we all have our own traits and that’s how I see Scott. Seems to me it’s a difficult gig for any substitute driver, especially one with a strong personality and a history of their own. Course I never figured the McDowell alignment either, that one continues to surprise me.

[flagone]

Dear husker - it means nothing TO YOU. And that's okay. Blissfully unaware is a thing.

[RaceEngineer]

Dear husker - it means nothing TO YOU. And that's okay. Blissfully unaware is a thing.If Ed's wallet calls the shots, just say so.

[pierceFAN]

this is comical...all you so called bloomquist fans....and not one of you have any valid info about scott or the accident...im not even a bloomquist follower and I made one phone call and got the low down....ive heard he had a metal od in his leg...ive heard he broke his sternum....both are false...now babb is in the zero car...lol..you guys are credible

[huskerdirt]

Dear husker - it means nothing TO YOU. And that's okay. Blissfully unaware is a thing.

Assuming people are blissfully unaware is ignorant. If bloomer was having a substitute driver, it would’ve already happened.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

^^^^^ so what.You wrote click bait, but you took the bait sweetheart, just saying.

It’s none of my dam business, when he’s back, he’s back. And not anyone I’d consider a reliable source has mentioned a relief driver. I don’t see it happening.

[powerslide]

Common thread: Ed Petroff

If I remember correctly Bloomer couldn't even pronounce his last name correctly. Maybe it was Madden... I don't see it happening but stranger things have happened.

[Barbecueboy]

Dude made a phone call and has all the answers......let him bask in the glory.....he doesn't get much of that:)

Or at least let it be until the truth comes out and he looks even dumber.....Scott should be back in the car next week, right?
It was just a flesh wound :)

[Barbecueboy]

Thank goodness for Facebook and home room...........

[Illtsate32]

I know he got me lol. Thats why I said clickbait, bunch about nothing...

[Barbecueboy]

Apparently you didn't call the right people......:)

[pierceFAN]

Same tools....I mean fools...just a different thread...that article never said anything about a replacement driver...I will stand firm on info...Scott will be back behind the wheel soon...proceed to twist and contort my words like always...I'm used to it

[Barbecueboy]

What exactly is your definition of soon? You rambled this same crap already and he still isn't driving his car.......what gives?

Or did your words not get twisted enough?

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Same tools....I mean fools...just a different thread...that article never said anything about a replacement driver...I will stand firm on info...Scott will be back behind the wheel soon...proceed to twist and contort my words like always...I'm used to itBecause you are spewing BS. The same stuff you get all hot and bothered about people doing about Bobby, here you are. With Cody taking a role, it may be feasible someone may be in the car. But to say Scott is not really hurt that bad, there’s nothing to contradict that he isn’t jacked up pretty bad.

[Clayton_Wetter]

A https://www.patriotmobile.com/ phone would be a good option. :wink:

[Josh Bayko]

The press release straight from Bloomer and Sommer themselves says Bloomer is expected to be out several months. I guess a few months is soon?

[Highside Hustler25]

Same tools....I mean fools...just a different thread...that article never said anything about a replacement driver...I will stand firm on info...Scott will be back behind the wheel soon...proceed to twist and contort my words like always...I'm used to it

Projected 3 - 5 months He'll be out.

[HoosierDirtFan]

Projected 3 - 5 months He'll be out.

So could possibly be back just in time for the World 100 in September.

[golddirt]

Huge announcement he is retiring. From a source

[Mason87]

A very reliable source from a friend of a friend who's pool guy heard from his friend said that he is becoming a woman.

[TerryM]

A very reliable source from a friend of a friend who's pool guy heard from his friend said that he is becoming a woman.
That already happened. And he changed his name to Caitlyn.

[ZERO25]

....and takes Ciera's place beside the Killer?

[kidrock]

Projected 3 - 5 months He'll be out.

I would think from the reports of multiple fractures and surgery that's likely to be true.

[Barbecueboy]

But important phone calls were made?? And now your sayng bloomer isn't faking it?? Well dang.

I think Cody will be good for him

[chupp n bloomer fan]

....and takes Ciera's place beside the Killer?And get him the driving lessons he needs.

[Barbecueboy]

Master lock the new sponsor?

[pierceFAN]

What BS am I spewing CnB fan? please tell me...cant wait to hear it...or maybe what's your definition of BS? Facts? Are you affiliated with CNN or the democratic party? Because they dont deal with fact either...look...there was and still is a lot of rumors flying around...I've got a friend that's about as close to Scott as you can get without being on his actual race team or family...he went to his wedding so I know hes a close friend...so if I want to know anything about bloomquist...he knows or can get the info....and its always 100% true...I'll stand firm with my posts...when he told me Scott would be back soon...I left it at that...one thing I'm 100% sure of...as usual...whether its threads about bloomquist...pierce...Davenport....or whoever... the majority of posters who talk like they know what they're talking about have no clue..

[foxfire2dirtracing]

PierceFAN:
I bet your source don’t even know where the wedding took place?

[Barbecueboy]

Ouch......but you're probably right.

Stand firm young man, all Lonesome pine trees do until they are snapped off at the base by the storm.........and btw, you didn't just leave it at " he will be back soon"....you made several posts on the subject , one of which was making fun of what the people that actually do know had heard about the accident.

And they wonder why?

[ZERO25]

Musta been at .....da plane, da plane place! Fantasy Island!

I don’t listen to the BS spewed by either party sweetheart. They are both so full of sh!t.

Well, your friend and you are full of it.

Very close to the team, what, Huck? He had a buddy around Bloomer. Pretty soon I’m going on vacation too, one this July, one next August. Is that your idea of soon? Mine is by May. And I don’t see it happening. Needing therapy, seeing specialist, looking for handouts, taking on a partner. All signs point to later than sooner.

Make sure you got your tin foil hat on tight, and crank up Fox News. Lord knows they are so accurate too.

[Barbecueboy]

Wait, Huck has friends? :)

[spiderma4]

oh cup n balls u chase any old guys riding 4 wheelers around and beat them up yet? oh ya thats right your wife said no you might get hurt. I c your a cnn guy no wonder ur an idiot!

[Josh Bayko]

Wait, Huck has friends? :)

I consider him a friend of mine, so there’s that.

[pierceFAN]

Cnb....if I'm so full of it....please prove it...
Here's what I said....and they are facts..

1. Cut off at a gas station
2. hurt his leg and hip
3. No metal rod in his leg
4. No broken sternum
5. Cut his eye and shoulder
6. Will be back soon
That's what I said...
Please tell me what is not true?... You cant! ...And you say I'm full of it??...sounds to me like you're full of yourself...hello mirror...I guess the only thing questionable is my statement that he will be back soon... it's a vague comment....with adults it wouldn't be an issue...but with children that frequent this board I understand the need for an exact date and time...for that I am sorry

[Barbecueboy]

Where did you say any of those things except " he will be back soon"?

I and everyone else must have missed all of the rest of your very specific bullet points, and if I did I'm sorry .....but do me a favor and indulge us all and quote where you said any of those things you lay claim to as having said about his accident.

All I seem to remember is you scoffing at him being seriously hurt.....claiming to have made a phone call verifying that fact and that all the rest of the chatter about him being seriously injured was false and that everyone but you was stupid for claiming to be his fans but not making a phone call to the right person to find out what the real deal is about him.

Oh, and the be back soon part.......which is about as vague as saying you're an educated man because you finished high school.

[golddirt]

So he really did have an accident ? Or is he in rehab

[Krooser]

Has anybody called Scott? Is that so hard?

[WisWildManFan]

So he really did have an accident ? Or is he in rehabWhy would anyone ever go to rehab when they are the best in the world at something...

[WisWildManFan]

I’ll be all over that zero Babb dream shirt

[golddirt]

Like Tony Montana?

It said something about bloomquist falling in a flower bed. I looked for it but I couldn't find it. It probably got deleted.

[golddirt]

I hope he saved the seeds!

[Barbecueboy]

I saw piercefans post. It said something about bloomquist falling in a flower bed. I looked for it but I couldn't find it. It probably got deleted.

I saw it too......and it said nothing of any of those things he was so specific about a few posts up.

And he wonders why?

[NormP]

Things are starting to look a lot worse for PierceFAN’s “he’ll be back soon” prediction. Another weekend with no Bloomquist racing and when he does make it to the track he’s in a wheelchair looking like death on a cracker.

[Barbecueboy]

But calls were made.......and to people that were in Scott's wedding and stayed at a holiday inn express last night, surely they would know?

[smooth32]

This isn't a racing 4m is it? It appears to be one, but it's not. This is nothing more than a bunch of people sitting around just waiting to verbally attack those with different opinions.

[Barbecueboy]

Sometimes people get called out when they just make up stuff and post it.

[wfofan]

Is this a racing forum or fakebook? Am I lost? Anyone?

[TerryM]

This isn't a racing 4m is it? It appears to be one, but it's not. This is nothing more than a bunch of people sitting around just waiting to verbally attack those with different opinions.
It’s basically just one member who keeps this garbage going in multiple threads. That must be a pretty sad way to live.

[smooth32]

I guess I just dont understand. I love dirt late model racing. Not really sure why a couple people come to this racing forum, because it sure isn't to talk racing. It's all the time too. I can understand differences of opinions and people can ruffle some feathers, but OMG! It's always the same few that for some reason feel the need to start trouble.

[NormP]

I know. You'd think they wouldn't lie and say things like "He'll be back soon" just to stir stuff up.

It ruins it for the rest of us.

[Barbecueboy]

Yep , only one guy to blame for any of it...........And they wonder why?

[Barbecueboy]

I know. You'd think they wouldn't lie and say things like "He'll be back soon" just to stir stuff up.

Or lie and say things like....." I don't do that weak stuff, never have".

As if to remove themselves from any culpability.

[joeboo]

Barbecueboy
Yep , only one guy to blame for any of it...........And they wonder why?

You're that guy ! How many times do people say things that aren't 100% correct? But because it's from a Pierce fan about the 0 you insist on picking the scab. You want an apology? A gift card? Who gives a sh!t really?

Only thing most people wonder is why the mods haven't skimmed the top of the pond again.

[Barbecueboy]

I don't want anything other than for someone to admit when they are wrong, it's not really that hard......especially when they make several ridiculous posts trying to sell someone on the fact that they know something they don't.

If they are going to make the time and take the time to say stupid things like that then they should be able to accept someone questioning it when it doesn't pass the sniff test......and it didn't and still doesn't.

And btw.....a Pierce fan and the piercefan are two entirely different animals, but I'm sure you knew that already.

He called Mooresburg but got transferred to Hooterville, and ended up speaking with Arnold Ziffel, who hogged the conversation!

Wouldn't be surprised If there was someone to get in the ZERO car it would be Jared Landers. Babb not a Bad choice either.

[buster83]

it's only April and if he comes back a couple weeks before the Dream would that be soon.

[backspace]

Hearing from Babbs camp that he will drive the 0 car in select events,,coming from close source

[brsteg]

If Babb does run Scott's car... they should keep it painted and decal'd just like Scott runs it, but throw the 18 back on it.

[TackyTracker]

Babb at the PDC in a bloomer car with the 18.. Don't believe Scott really likes Fairbury

[kazual]

The 0’s set up and Babb’s driving style are apples and oranges in my view.

[chathamracefan]

If it does come to pass remember who started this thread. Lol. It was just really odd at Farmer City that I heard 2 completely unrelated people talking about it within a 1/2 hour of each other. Not normally in the rumor business but it seemed odd enough to ask about. Would love to see Babb get a crack at Eldora in a top shelf ride.
