Who Wins The Million

[Snake X3]

Sadly, I can only list 10, but who wins it?

[Snake X3]

If you pick "Someone Else", name your winner.

[HoosierDirtFan]

I picked someone else.

Dennis Erb Jr. <> very good at Eldora when his car is right and he's having a good year.

[Billy_the_kid]

the killer kyle bronson

[84wedge]

Hard to not pick JD, but who knows what that track surface is going to be like. Longhorns excelled at a smooth track going through the middle but if the Johnny Appleseed Classic was any indicator, it'll be whoever doesn't break their stuff and has a lof of off roading experience. I wouldn't be surprised at all if Bobby Pierce wins it.

[Rajflyboy]

Chris Madden

[Pennsboro32]

At the time of placing my vote, bloomer is leading this poll. Unreal.

[weatherman85]

Out of the ones on the list I'd love to see McDowell win it or Bloomer. Be great comeback story of sorts with Dale dealing with Cancer and Bloomer for everything he's gone through. Betting wise though, I'd put my money on JD.

Would love for a Cinderella story with someone truly not expected to win but doubt it will happen. Who would be considered the last true Cinderella winner as far as World 100/Dream 100 goes?

Maybe Erb jr? Perhaps Casebolt's 2007 Dream 100 win?

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

the killer kyle bronson

He'd have a good shot if it was 40 laps.

[Highside Hustler25]

Picked Erb a few weeks ago in a different thread. Sticking with Dennis and Heather.

anyone but Davenport or Overton.

Proof how mentally challenged some members are

[TS FAN]

I give Overton about 60% chance. Davenport about 30%
My preference would be someone else. A big surprise winner would be great. I expect the track to be its usual self. Tony is making sure of that. This is why my own odds

60% chance?! No way.

[TS FAN]

Hope you are right. But after what I have seen of Overton at the races last year, it is difficult to pick anyone other than Davenport as an option. I really want to see someone else for sure

A lot changed in the past year.

So you give the remainder of the field a 10% chance ?

Devin Moran

Earl Pearson JR.

[racerx99]

Eldora is one of my favorite tracks, but the cornfield it has been, dont think it will be fixed by this week, I aint bothering just to see 5 racers finish a 100 laps, and all them need chiropractic care after............or worse.........what till October, fix the track right first.......then lets race!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[One Man Gang]

Mike Marlar

[play4kps]

EPJ, Devin Moran, Zac Dohm, Shannon Baab, Brian Shirley, Tyler Erb, Jimmy Owens, Dennis Erb, Ryan Gustin, Lanigan and dont forget Moyer! These guys all got a chance.

[Raceready]

Proof how mentally challenged some members areOf course the Zero cars have had a few moments in the sun lately ...

[Rajflyboy]

Madden is the clear favorite. He has won most of the races he has entered this year. JD has a good shot as well as Big Sexy. Too many laps for Bloomer unfortunately. Moran has a great shot. He is getting better as of late.

[keith94elliott]

im goin with !57 mikey marlar

[ZERO25]

Epj, Bloomer........but my wallet would say Superman!

Steven and his brother even races still? Last I heard they were promoting a race track either Willard or 201 Speedway in Kentucky.

Would be cool if one or both showed up.

Stephen still races some here and there. His brother Jarrod owns 201, which is supposed to be opening up again. Jarrod doesn't race anymore.

madden is good there but hes not better than jd or overton there. it may be his year finally but i dont see it

[Snake X3]

Thanks for your input, guys. It's pretty much what I expected. I wanted to put Dennis Erb, Devin, Owens and Marlar on the list. I find it interesting how the poll compares to the so called experts.

I'll be rooting for JD, but I voted for Overton. I'd love to see Bloomer or Dale McDowell win though. I'd really like it to be one of the older guys though. The kids will have their turn some other time. The guys in their 40s and 50s probably won't get another chance. I do think the winner will be driving a Longhorn or a Bloomquist car though, but that's why they run the races. I can wait.

[WisWildManFan]

If it’s smooth Fergy had that car on a rail at the show me.

[DarrellGoode]

As long as Mother Nature doesn’t win, I don’t care.

[Rajflyboy]

madden is good there but hes not better than jd or overton there. it may be his year finally but i dont see itI hear you but I have gone to three different races this year not even thinking about the 44 car and sure enough he stalks down the leader in the closing laps and wins. I learned my lesson. If the 44 shows up he has a great chance to win. I’m impressed with him and his team.

[Rajflyboy]

Fergy does have a shot. Luke Bryan has been good this year.

[RiffRaf67]

I chose other: 8 Kyle Strickler will break his eldora jinx, karma will right itself and the 8 gets redemption in the feel-good story of the year.

[TS FAN]

The problem is you have to look at 100 laps vs 40 or 50. It is going to be tough to beat JD or Overton if they make the show and start somewhere in the first six rows. AS I have said, I would like to see someone else win it. Ferguson, Madden are certainly interesting choices. I would throw in Hudson Oneal believe it or not if he makes the show and gets a good starting spot.

Bottom line though is who is going to run the race with the patience needed to be strong the last 20 laps, that is going to also be a big test

Who I would really like to see win it I will keep to myself. Nobody cares who I am pulling for, nor should they LOL. I have been around this sport since my grandfather built Glen Este speedway in 1949, and while I was a toddler then, I can say I pretty much seen it all, at least in the midwest

[Rajflyboy]

Tire preservation is key. TS fan is right.

[billetbirdcage]

They are removing the new dirt so. . . shrugs

[Rajflyboy]

They are removing the new dirt so. . . shrugsThey can do that in a day or two?

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

They can do that in a day or two?

I once saw Earl dig all the wet stuff off overnight and race.

[racerx99]

cool beans, just watched a tony stewart video, he musta heard me...LOL Shane Clanton is due... is Larry Moore still around he'd take it......

[johnE]

Overton or Davenport

Pulling for Smokey and Bloomer.

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

I'd say you would be on the wrong side of the odds if you took the field vs a group of JD, Madden, and Overton.

[Rajflyboy]

Master has it correct 👍

[YeetIt]

Lots of quality cars going to be in the house. Im gonna take the field even though you likely listed 9 of the main event starters. Erb Jr., Pearson, Moran, Thornton, Satterlee, and some others with success at Eldora have had good starts to their year. It will be interesting to see what the track is like over the next few days.

[Barbecueboy]

Raced back to 10th on the goat ranch the night before at the show me too….Wouldn’t shock me a bit to see them get the big check.

[Highside Hustler25]

I'd say you would be on the wrong side of the odds if you took the field vs a group of JD, Madden, and Overton.

Yes, but I'd take the field vs any one individual, be it JD or Big Stinky no matter what kind of streak they're on.

[lurker]

I'd say you would be on the wrong side of the odds if you took the field vs a group of JD, Madden, and Overton.

Just for curiosity sake, I wonder what Vegas type odds are on a bet like that? Also, I wonder what the Vegas type odds would be if you’d put your two of your three in a quinella box, or win place or show.

[lurker]

Just for fun, I’ll take the field for $10.

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

Lurker,

For decent odds, we'd need one of those folks who keep track of all the stats to do an RPI type analysis like used to be done for college basketball. Then all drivers get a predictor score. That's how Vegas does all sports. I'd be interested in seeing the results as well. This isn't the Moran, Moyer, Bloomer days, but IMO, there are 3 clear cut favorites.

[Snake X3]

I find these results fascinating. Thanks again to all of you for casting votes and giving your comments. This board seems a lot different (better) lately. It's almost like a discussion. Go figure! Enjoy the race boys.

Absolutely!! The three favorites deserve to be and certainly are clear cut. I have two guys I am pulling for and not one of the favorites. LOL. But!!!, no denying beating all three is going to be tough

A line maker. I wish you could bet on DLM racing, I make some good money on NBA stuff, dirt racing would be cool.

[Highside Hustler25]

Bloomquist was probably even money for the first dirt million. How'd that work Out?
Fastest car doesn't always win.

[0cents]

I always enjoy seeing the normal guys that are constantly fast week after week win races but with the million I would love to see an upset from what I'll call one of the more average guys out there.

Fastest car was Moran's. He had fast cars back then, second to none.

[Rajflyboy]

My 2 dark horses…. 1. Ross Bailes and #2 is my man #11 AK racing Austin Kirkpatrick. I will go freaking nuts if Austin makes the main and wins this thing. Those are my long shots to win.
