    Default Overton the current day Scott Bloomquist?

    Boom said last night that Brandon Overton is today what Scott Bloomquist was 15-20 years. Agree or disagree? I'm not quite sure I agree quite yet, but if he has a year close to last year, I'll be ready to fall in line.

    I think he is great but you will see others win. Rocket will get it together at some point.

    Overton is the same in that he is the best driver. I don't see any other similarities.

    i said the same when he was making all those runs last year. He keeps the car straight and knows how to manage tires and when its time to go. Someone else pointed it out that he is pretty much on his own island, in the sense he's not sharing information with too many so when he hits on something he can hold onto it longer.

    As far as personalities. They’re nothing alike. Scott thrives off of the villain role, Brandon is a good Ol southern boy.

    As far as driving styles, they’re pretty similar imo. They keep the car straight, and they look like they’re barely on the gas yet driving away from the competition.

    Similar driving techniques. Scott cars turn well and so does the 76. Overton is a great driver but so are others. As I said earlier, right now he is not beatable.

    Here it is again! So many people expect to by a chassis and instantly be running up front.. Brandon is as smooth as they get, deffinatly compare him to Bloomquist and Moyer years back..

    They do run similar lines as well, the bottom and middle. You never saw Scott banging the car off the cushion but Overton could if he wanted.

    I'd rather say that Brandon Overton is the first Brandon Overton.

    It kinda looks like its been a Longhorn ROUT starting out this year. I'm a thinking that if Bloomer would strap himself into a Horn he may find the winners circle again ? ? Just saying...

    I like pretty much all the dirt late model drivers. I think JD and B Sheppard and a few others will beat big sexy this year.

    Overton will have to sustain his winning ways for a couple of decades before he's in the same conversation as Bloomquist.
