Did you read the DoD article?Originally posted by dirtisforracin View PostIt was thrown out, and drivers let it go. So its over. On Eldora website and Eldora Facebook page.
It was not thrown out, they withdrew the suit. And it's not over, they are going to move it very soon, probably to NC.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

If they persist, they're going to go broke trying to prove their innocence. Their lawyer is severely outmatched. I mean, he just now realized WRG's rules state any litigation must take place in NC?Originally posted by cutman View PostThey pulled it out of federal court and most likely moving it to the state level. Unfortunately, it ain't over

FROM ELDORA'S FACEBOOK PAGE:
ROSSBURG, Ohio (October 18, 2016) – A federal lawsuit filed against World Racing Group, Inc. (WRG) and subsidiary DIRTcar Racing, Eldora Speedway, Inc., and its owner Tony Stewart by five drivers and race teams disqualified following June’s Dirt Late Model Dream was dismissed today in U.S. Federal Court for the Northern District of New York (NDNY).
The Honorable U.S. District Court Judge Mae A. D’Agostino signed the dismissal order in Albany, New York.
“With ticket renewals beginning today for our 2017 Major Event Calendar, we are pleased with the voluntary motion by the plaintiffs and today’s dismissal,†said general manager Roger Slack. “We trust this marks the end of the matter and everyone can re-focus their energy on the drama which promises to unfold next season on the high-banks of Eldora.â€
Plaintiffs Scott Bloomquist, Jimmy Owens, Gregg Satterlee, Brandon Sheppard, Ricky Thornton, Jr., and team owners R&W Motorsports, LLC, W.G. Satterlee & Sons, Inc., Best Performance Motorsports and JR. Motorsports, LLC, filed a voluntary motion for dismissal on Monday.
The New York law firms of Lester Schwab Katz & Dwyer, LLP and Ahmuty, Demers & McManus represented WRG, DIRTcar, Eldora and Stewart in NDNY. Counsel from IceMiller, LLP (Indianapolis) and Apollo Sports & Entertainment Group Law (Charlotte) complemented the team.
SOUNDS TO ME LIKE the boys brought in some high powered muscle and Bloomer & Co. turned tail and ran.
