It says Blair will debut the new ride in a couple of weeks. Also, the article said they would be concentrating on the ULMS series and that Blair would maintain the equipment in his family’s shop.

ULMS, really. Yea they have some good cars but why not the woo tour ? Folks around PA have always made excuses why the 111 would never show for big shows around his area.

He absolutely does show up to the big races. And runs well. Max is a wheelman, but it’s him and his Dad, first and foremost they need to make money. They aren’t rich.

I hear that from those in the area I grew up in, and anytime I see Max, he is up front. Everywhere.

Then next year maybe go on a tour if they can make it last.

Probably because we’re already 3 months into the WoO season.

So Lanigan and Bloomquist are both off WoO?

I don't think you'll see max on the woo tour. This "ride" has a history of big press releases and low funding. I was honestly surprised to see lanigan with him over a year.

Maybe Clanton also.Wow. Do they even have ten full time drivers?

Was Clanton running WoO or Lucas this season?Right, Clanton is LOLM and Bruening is WoO.

I believe he was planning to run WoO then was sick. They were going to make a decision after speed weeks. There is nothing on the schedule after Port Royal and on DoD in notes it says Clanton weighs plans after runner up finish at Port Royal. There's about 5 guys in front of him that won't be at upcoming WoO events.

Clanton is in Iowa today talking to Greg and Tyler. Says if Tyler runs with the outlaws he probably will be too. If not he's gonna run Lucas.

I'm wondering what this means for Tony Jackson? He just recently put viper on his car. I smell a chassis change coming soon.

Shawn said in a comment on one of my buddies posts, that they are going to basically run the schedule Max already had put together this year, then tour with the Outlaws next year. Which, I think, makes the most sense.

Max has more WoO wins in the last five years than Lanigan has, just sayin...

I wish the kid well, brings new faces into the mix and right now the woo needs that. I said early in the season teams would be watching what overton's team is doing. Eldora announcing what there schedule is going to look like. There's a lot of money out there to be had this year and guys don't have to commit to a series.

Max definitely deserved some funding IMO. He’s one of the better regional drivers in the entire country. I’ll be anxious to see what he can do on the national scene in select events.

I've been waiting for him to get a ride too. Whenever WoO comes to his 'hood, he owns them.

Not sure that someone that's 51 years old is over the hill.

The fact of the matter is the body starts shutting down testosterone production around 40. Add another ten years, life experience and by the time someone is in their 50's, they aren't the risk taking, go getters they were 30 years ago. There's a reason that people that old aren't at the top of any sport without PED use.

Kevin kovacs column this week is really good about this situation
