Should be a dandy tonight. I think Overton is basically racing for the money. I don't think he can gain that much.

Casey Roberts 1,595
Dale McDowell 1,589
Brandon Overton 1,555

Why is Bloomquist driving someone else's car? Supposed to be in Mike Benedum's ride.

I also haven't understood McDowell being in the Kinzer car in some races. Somebody fill me in. Dialing in setups on certain tracks?

Not sure about Bloomquist other than Benedum has bloomer car, but Kinzer is out because of his back and Dale/Shane have some sort of agreement or tie to Kinzer.

McDowell drove it at the Portsmouth Lucas race and I think one event before or after it and then has been in it the entire SN tour. Centeroff said something about Landers being in McDowell's ride at some point off and on this season.

If Bloomers is in Benedums car I knew he wouldn't pass up $10k just down the road whether he was in his ride or someone else's.

Looks like they cut the purse at tazwell inside dirt is reporting 53 laps 5300 to win.

**MI Dirt Fan** · 07-28-2018, 09:58 PM

Still says on DoD $10k

Finish

**wfofan** · 07-28-2018, 10:03 PM

No Bloomquist, $10,000 to Overton...

**bleedsbluer2** · 07-28-2018, 11:56 PM

Thats why alot of fans dislike this series they always pull off cutting the purse cutting laps or something but i bet they kept admission price the same if they took 4700.00 off the top purse thats crazy most drivers wouldve just left

**MI Dirt Fan** · 07-28-2018, 11:59 PM

Still haven't seen anywhere the purse was cut to $5300 to win. Even here it still says $10k

His Crewchief has a pic of the check from Tazwell and it shows $10000.00.

**wfofan** · 07-29-2018, 12:26 AM

Guess cause it was posted, Bloomquist was there for $5300 to win...don't bite too hard...

**MRM** · 07-29-2018, 12:43 AM

The purse was not cut. Series champ got $5,300. Race paid $10,000. Big crowd, good race.

Just my opinion, but if driver A wins 5 races in a 9 race series....and driver B wins 0 races in the 9 race series....then driver A should be your champion.
