    Bloomquist - Eldora Dream Tire issue. He has lawyers involved trying for injunction.

    Just heard that Scott & Katrina have their lawyers involved in trying to get an injunction with all the b.s. surrounding the tire scandal at Eldora during the DREM 100 weekend.

        If everything were transparent and more consistent .........they wouldn't need them in this case.

          Just like he "had lawyers involved" with weightgate, right?

          Believe none of what you hear and half of what you see.

              think this has a little more merit than weight gate...........but again, I'm the tinfoil hat guy.

              I guess we will see......

                I don't see where this has any more merit than the weight issue. Especially considering Scott's prior history.

                  If this dream debacle were just about Scott, I would agree with you.......

                  I don't believe Scott is the only person in that group that is exploring other options.

                  Again, guess we will just have to wait and see.

                    The only thing I can assume here is that you're the one who sold them the faulty tire dope.

                      Nope.......just the tin foil driving suits and the simple green and wd40 to clean them with.

                        Let's say he does have lawyers involved and gets and injunction, what good is it?

                        Can't the track tell Scott he's not welcome and they don't care about a court injunction. Last I checked, Scott would be considered a "customer" since he has to buy pit passes and Eldora is a business. They have the right to refuse service to anyone and don't need a reason.

                        Seems like if he truly does have lawyers involved he's being a crybaby about it?

                        I liken it to another decisive figure (but in another type of racecar) named Terry McCarl. Got suspended by Knoxville Raceway in the late 80's or early 90's (can't remember which) and took it like a man and wasn't there during the suspension. Got suspended by Badlands (formerly Huset's) a couple weeks ago and will miss the biggest event up there ($50,000 to win) this season or ever (and is one of the best to ever strap into a racecar there).

                        What's he doing? Went to the Ozarks on vacation with his wife instead and will run a race in Missouri the same night as the big race in South Dakota.

                        I'm not a Terry McCarl fan by any means, but seems like he always takes it like a man and moves on when he does something he shouldn't have. Seems like Bloomquist wants to make it out be someone always has it out for him.

                          So, let me get the straight. He wants to spend thousands in legal fees over losing $6,100. If he is successful in the injunction, it means any World 100 purse winnings would be held in escrow until the issue is settled. Then, if he eventually loses the case (which is likely), he will also forfeit the World 100 winnings. Sounds like sound logic to me .

                            Bloomers lawyer deal will fade away like butter in a hot skillet.
