I think Rick and Tanner have both had really good cars lately.
Anybody know if eckert is running his own stuff or Allen Murray's?
Eckert hasn't raced at Eldora for years, many more drivers out there who are more deserving. jmo
Well, the fans thought he was deserving lolQuote:

Nobody's whining, just a fact that there's more deserving guys to run at the BIG E. Doesn't hurt my feelings either way.Quote:

This race is being driven by pure PPV revenue. “Deserving“ a spot means jack squat.Quote:

If we apply the same theory to this race, the average fan wants to see a long time heavyweight contender like Rick Eckert as opposed to a journeyman who is rarely competitive with the heavyweights like Rusty Schlenk. Now, I’m not knocking what Rusty does, going up 3 and 5k races where he’s got a better chance of actually taking the pot makes way more sense for his program, but it’s not at all flashy or popular amongst the wider DLM fanbase. The wider DLM fanbase is who this race is for.
Even if he got the vote he would of left for some $800 to win race in Missouri.Quote:

Didn't he also leave Eldora once to race somewhere else because he qualifed poorly.
Just because they live in Ohio they think they should automatically be invited? Smh
Still think Matt Miller should of been Locked in. I’d say that was my biggest disappointment.
Duane Chamberlain is the only guy I feel bad for.
Agreed, Pennsboro32. If there is one guy who truely is getting the shaft on this whole ordeal is "Insane" Duane Chamberlain. I don't believe, in the 11 years we've been attending The Dream, that he has not been there.
I feel bad for those that don't get to go. Per Eckert's schedule, he'll be in the Allen Murray car. He's been pretty quick in that ride, close to getting 6 top-10s in the 6 Lucas Oil races the last two weeks.
Lol...........Quote:
