      It does say more dates possibly added soon... I would expect to find a few more dates outside of the Lucas Series for Jimmy.

        No whining here Jimbo. Stating facts. He will not attend a race at Eldora unless Tony makes some large concessions, which I don't think is going to happen. Not for me to sit and say who's right or who's wrong, but it is terrible for dirt racing, which is the big picture issue here. I think Bloom should swallow his pride and attend Eldora's major races like he has in the past, but I don't see that happening. It's a shame.

          The money lost on t-shirt sales alone should be enough to make him want to come to Eldora.

            A thread about Owens and his schedule. Yet most all of the replies mention Bloomquist... If any of you think Tony Stewart NEEDS any certain Late Model driver to keep the gates open at Eldora, you are sadly informed. I'm sure the bottom line at last years WORLD was not affected one bit. It sure looked like business as usual to me.

              Your point would be valid if the original post of thread didn't ask ab bloomers schedule.

                You would have to be crazy to schedule against the World, or just like the idea of loosing money. Does any track in the country run the same day?

                  The King of the Knob was ran for a few years on top of the World. They never hurt for fans or cars. It doesn't happen anymore though, mostly because Rick Jones has run Roaring Knob into the ground.

                    One fan here who won't. Bloomer needs to suck it up, and move on. You only got a few good years left, make them count and stick it to schizophrenic Tony. Track scales are not official though. Unless they are certified by the state. You are paying based on weight. You or anyone else can argue this point and in a court of law you'll lose if proven your scales aren't accurate. And I'm not talking about just Bloomer, anyone, anywhere.

                    Because as of now, he's only screwing himself. I'll attend the Big E with or without Bloomer. He's the one losing the T-Shirt sales and wins.

                    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                      I dunno, original poster asked if Bloomers would be the same, so I guess read the whole post.

                        They pay you for winning the race. Not $43/pound.

                          Thank you for understanding. I stated something to this effect in a different thread.

                            I hope you speak the truth. I can do without all the drama when I am at Eldora.

                              You hit the nail squarely on the head.
