Volusia droop drama between Ross Robinson and WOOLMS.
Strait from the teams Facebook page.

We regret to inform our fans watching at home that we finished 2nd in our heat and were determined by WoO officials to have violated their droop rule. Any rule where you can check multiple times and get multiple readings is an unenforceable rule that has no place in this sport, but we accepted their decision and withdrew from our outside pole starting position in the B-Main. We have elected to load up and wait for our Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series opener at Golden Isles Speedway. Thank you all as always for the support.

Next Race - 5/25 Shadyhill

The other 48 teams had no issues with the rule. Just saying.

"The other 48 teams had no issues with the rule. Just saying."
Agree 100%. Why is it when teams get caught, although disappointed, they just accept it, make the nessesary changes and move on? Teams have reacted like Ross "The Boss" my entire life as a race fan when they have been caught with a rule infraction, Droop, Tires, etc.

Same complaint Weiss had last year at eldora. Why we are still using a tape measure is beyond me.

Why they are checking it, is beyond me. I was told they didn't even check the winner of Robinson's heat.

Rocket 1 was never disqualified at a WoO event until the very first race it was known they were leaving the series. Teams on a tour get the benefit of the doubt, with that tour.

If the WoO was being petty about the droop rule, they would have picked somebody much higher on the Lucas food chain, yet they all passed as did every other car on the property. Maybe someday racers will develop accountability, but I’m not holding my breath.

^ what sense does it make to check the guy in 2nd but not the winner? It sounds like to me he had a legit reason to be mad regardless of who it was

3 tires vs 2? I know it was 1 last year, cause of shortages. These guys waste way more than that $200 dollars.
I'd say McDowell had more issue with the LM10 than the tire count.

They even said the 10 was the major issue.

They haven't made a LM10 (#1 in the new tires) according to Mr Rush at Hoosier since 2012 or 2014 (I forget but around that time frame) so it's not like they trying to use up LM10's.

They are however trying to use up the LM30's.
