When will Bloomquist

[TerryM]

He told me over a year ago that the injury had little effect on him in the car. A couple months later we watched him in person win at Cochran on a hammer down track. He looked like the Bloomer of old, but that seemed surreal. What’s happening this year is just a continuation of something that was going on before the injury. He’s won one series championship in a dozen years, and that one was because Lucas changed the rules after JD’s historical year. Let’s stop pretending this decline is because of the injury. He’s still capable of a big win, albeit unlikely, but as for sustained success, I don’t think so. I’m just glad I still have the shirts, the memories, etc. Just like with Moyer and Moran, I’m just glad I got to see the greats, from beginning to end.

I’m not a huge Bloomer fan, but I appreciate him showing up to any race I watch. Especially anything at Eldora. Hopefully he will get it figured out, if not Bobby is kinda becoming what everyone always said Scott was lol.

Yea a slide job specialist. O wait, he uses up the other guy, no special skills needed. When Bob finally retires f'n Bobby Pierce will be no more.

Ugh, I think he's had a total hip replacement since your talk with him. I'm not saying he will EVER get to the Bloomquist of years past, but for a racer known as the best 100 lapped ever to not be able to feel his throttle foot?? If that feeling comes back, which he says doctors told him it would., then we will know if he's finished or not.

Thats not the only feeling he needs to get back!

i agree with TerryM,s analysis , and i have known several people around his age that has had total hip replacement , and its rough , but i think ole bloomer still has another good run left in him , now to give credit , he has had a good bit of misfortune last few years......

[Rajflyboy]

He is still the King of Dirt Late models

The hip replacement though was after one year ago though. Before the numbness. I still believe he can come bsck from this. Time will tell.

All I know is if he has good lawyers, he will not miss out on a penny. He can sue for loss of income and be just fine. As long as the person who hit him has the money to pay.

Good write Terrym I totally agree with everything you wrote it is very sad to see a great driver like him to start to go down like that but that's life sometimes

It depends on who was at fault in the accident (I don't know if Scott or the other guy was at fault).
