    I did talk with Donny this past summer and he told me he was tired of the sprint and the series. He was looking to do something different.

      Throw all mine in as well. I think WoO makes a lot of sense for Brandon

        There are several LM drivers who are top notch, but they have to have cars capable of winning, and that was mostly missing last season in Lucas. Not trying to get his loyal fans panties in a wad. LOL
        It is simple reasoning. When I go to a race, I prefer to not to know who will probably win it.
        I would say Richards/Best will probably do a lot more than just challenge Bloomquist. I wouldn't give Bloomquist (or Richards) any better than even odds if they both run the same series. It will be a big victory for LOLMDS either way, the two undisputed best drivers in the country going up and down the road on the same tour.

              I seen a comment on facebook today from a team owner who just recently bought a xr1. They said the driver that is picked to drive the house car would have everyone even more lost over this whole situation. Donny driving that car would be one of those choices I feel like that would make everyone think....wtf

                Bloomer ain't done much of anything the last month and a half other than getting beat up on by regional guys unless I missed something. (don't get too serious I'm partially jerking with you)

                  I hope those guys don't get Richards in trouble like they did Sheppard.

                    We will see if Richards has a car to compete with him. Same for guys like Owens, Oneal and JD. All have proven to be great racers when they have cars that can win. Richards in the one car certainly ran with Bloomer, but he is not in the one car. Just hoping for a lot of competition.
