    That didn't take long:

Drivers that don't have their cars inspected in that time frame are ineligible for provisionals. ...

I don't care what anybody says, being late is NOT a strategy, he only gets away with it(runs well) because he has so much experience and pre-race preparation.
      his fans came to see him hot lap, qualify, run a heat, and run the a main.

          I don't hate any more f those guys. I don't like Bloomquist because he is a a$$hole. He is the least humble guy I have ever heard talk. He has been caught cheating several times by several series. And it's never been his fault once. It's always the scale, or the lab, or the track, or series are out to get him. I have never heard him take responsibility once for any on track issue or tech issue. He is great, probably the best. But I just can't stand the "it's all about me" BS that follows him everywhere. I honestly can't think of another racer in any series I dislike.

            So the haters are happy that Scott has to show up and run hot laps and qualify? Which means he will start up front at every event instead of mid-pack by missing qualifications. LOL. Be careful what you ask for.

                May I remind people on both sides of the perpetual Bloomquist obsession.....hes winning on here because youre talking about him. All publicity is good. The hating...the loving... I assure you every bit of it is ending up on a deposit slip at his bank.

                  And you hit the nail on the head with a beautiful sledgehammer.

                    And they also say people who joke about a guy having cancer and not dying soon enough are POS. But what do I know.

                      Yeah, very valid points. There's only a couple in various sports I do not like. Sammy Swindell takes the cake above them all to me. All the downfalls of Bloomer and extremely dirty.

                      Kyle Bronson would be another.

                        The drivers have had this power all along and refused to do anything.

                        With all the favoritism talk, he can do whatever he wants, it's not the Lucas series it's the Bloomquist series and all the other tired, worn out attempts to belittle/discredit Bloomer, there is something that those of you aren't taking into account.

                        If everything the haters wanna believe, is true, what does that say about his competitors that voluntarily compete at an unfair disadvantage every time they race with the zero?

                        From my perspective, it makes those drivers look like spineless D-bags.

                          Although I agree Meth is a really bad drug, I don't agree at all Scott is on Meth, one should probably read about the drug and then would see he shows no sign of being on Meth.

                          Why are they late sometimes who knows but there could be many reasons. One thing about it he gets a lot of attention when he is late.

                              Well, without saying too much, the gossip/rumors about Randy have been around. Basically he lives the in the fast lane.

                              Randy runs a successful business with probably the best steering boxes around. Bloomer is one of the best dirt late model drivers ever. Plenty of people live in the fast lane while juggling successful careers. Long as they are not putting other people's lives at risk, I don't really give a sh!t what they do. Bloomer is tardy, but not wreckless, Randy, I have no idea how he is as a person. Just that he has a successful business and helps out a lot of racers.

                                You realize that's Litey or his twin, so logic doesn't apply. You can search before and afters and there is no doubt when someone is a crackhead or a methhead.
