I know that Jeep and Eldora go hand in hand but come on. He’s ran around 5 races all year.

Yeah I'm not to big on Jeep and Matt Miller being on there but I get it I guess

I feel like the only reason Moyer Jr got in was so his dad would come. IMO....he’s never done anything at Eldora let alone his stats for the past few years have been far from stellar.

I'm guessing because Moyer Jr is on a national tour

Maybe I missed something, but what was the point of the selection show? Pretty much knew the outcome before it started. I swear the DoD founder guy just likes to be on tv a lot.🙄

why would they even put GR Smith in the fan voting. I can think of at lest 20 other regional drivers who deserve to be given a chance than that idiot.

I agree tsand. I can’t remember the last time G.R. has won a feature race. Regional driver from the same area, Michael Brown, would have made a better pick than him. Even Rambo.

Tsand - How many of those driver would actually make the tow there to Eldora if the where selected via the fan vote. I’m sure that’s something the track took into consideration.

You can make a case that almost every fan vote driver deserves in before Jeep and Matt Miller.

What about a regional driver having a great season like Dustin Mitchell instead of some of these guys that haven't raced even 5 times yet this year?

Fan vote is a popularity contest. Blair and carpenter will both get the votes to go. Kinda bad that they did the ppv thing again as i know woo was going to reschedule a big race that date but now cant because of drivers being their.

Jeep and Miller snd Jameson shouldn’t got invites. Blair and Simpsons brothers should’ve.

Blair probably wouldn't of went if he got invited.

He knows he stuff, but just take a chill pill dude.

As cool as it would be to see Jesse Glenz voted in, he wouldn't be able to attend. No open motor.

Chris Simpson not getting an invite seems to be a big oversight

Chad is more deserving than Chris, IMO.

He is in now with Rick Eckert declining.

OK thank you, I did not know that. Of the remaining Alternates, I would personally have the order as:

Hudson O'Neal
Michael Page
Chris Simpson
Jon Henry
Gordy Gundaker

I see that the fan vote is now up on Flo. Tyler Carpenter did show 2nd in the voting results, and is now gone from the results altogether. Wonder if he gave word that he would not be attending?

I'd have to guess that Hudson O'Neal wins the fan vote by a landslide (unless he is put into the race as an Alternate prior to the fan vote wrapping up).

gb81racing
08-18-2020, 06:21 PM
Yes, Tyler Carpenter said that he wouldn’t be there.

LMMS24
08-18-2020, 06:26 PM
Chad is more deserving than Chris, IMO.

I’m just basing it on Eldora history, and Chris has ran well in the Dream and World the past 8 years or so.

08-18-2020, 06:39 PM
Can't get quote function to work... LMMS24, I do agree Chris has had some nice runs at Eldora. I thought that Chad had a bit stronger Eldora resume, but after looking back at his previous schedules, he hasn't attended Eldora nearly as much as I thought he had. Chris on the other hand has attended Eldora much more frequently, and had some decent success. So, I'd have to say that I now agree with you that the 32 would be more deserving (if only one of them were to be picked).

Does Brian Ruhlman still race?

I saw somewhere Duane Chamberlain's wife said they were never even contacted about coming but yet it says they were are unable to attend.

zyoung25

Duane is injured, I would guess that's why they not contacted. People would be asking why he wasn't on there if they didn't put him on the list.

It was in here somewhere. Seems as though they were somewhat upset or not to pleased with the decision

Man I hate this freaking invite stuff. I wish Dustin could have got in the fan vote anyway. I know Rooster Nation would have had our back. Dustins made 2 out 4 world 100 and 5 out 6 world prelims. Wish Dustin could have got to return to Eldora in the Tim Short ride and unleashed our new motor.

Is it just me or does the 48 car cap on entires seem ridiculous. Place is big enough to support close to 100 especially with no fans present. At least 70.

You would think so. I remember being there as a kid and they parked them all the way up behind where the barns are now. Those were the days when the car count was in the 240's.

The 48 car max is due to county/state COVID restrictions

There is a limit on total number of people they can have on grounds.

Jeep and Matt both deserve their invites, both have put their time in there and both are multiple time Late Model track champions there.
Unlike most the others on the list that only come for the big shows. Its not always all about the national tours.

Yall please vote Ryan King in. It's the only Warrior in the field. He deserves it.

I think the car wasnt very good, but it seems like Mike is starting to get it sorted out! They have gotten pretty decent the past couple of months!

He got my vote!

I'm not sure Ruhlman has raced his late model any this year? From everything I've seen he's been pretty dedicated to his nonwing sprint program this year.
