Chris Simpson not getting an invite seems to be a big oversight
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).
Yes, Tyler Carpenter said that he wouldn’t be there.
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.
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.
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!
