    Bloomquist injury

    Bloomer was working on his car at a shop not far from Golden Isles and ran a wire cutter up under his fingernail and into the bone. Became badly infected and he has needed IV's and was still in the hospital as of yesterday. Hoping to be out to compete in the points races at East Bay.

    Kinda fuked up we get seven pages on him being late to a track, but he gets injured working on his stuff and not a thread on it. Says a lot about the people on here.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

    There are a lot of mental midgets around here. Kind of like when you go to the track and see 1/2 the stands filled with inbreds. Same crew, just behind a keyboard. So it's no surprise they don't say anything about this. They are kind of like the people that get real excited about the bad guy in pro wrestling because they think it's real.

    MI Dirt fan did ask about him in one of the race threads, so that's good. That's the only mention I saw.

        Well it's like the boy cried wolf, how many times has he been late before. He kind did that to himself at the end of day lol. But hope his hand heals fast and able get behind the wheel.

          I don't care for the guy, or his antics, I don't like seeing anyone hurt though. IF he would have to sit out those 2 races, he will be in a big hole then points wise.

            I didn't know any of that. I think there's some pretty big issues with that outfit and that's the reason for a lot of his issues with time management, but I don't want to see any driver injured. I hope he makes a full recovery soon.

              IF he would cut that finger off it would lighten the car by 13 ounces.Would be a new rule out by Friday morning.

                Maybe one of The NDJOSB ( NASCAR Drivers Jealous Of Scott Bloomquist ) can propose a new rule so he can't race.

                  I'm sure they're planning on it but it solely depends on if he is released from the hospital.....which based off what I've heard he will be.

                    So it sounds like he hurt it Sunday but didn't go get it looked at until Monday, at which time I'm sure he noticed it was filled with puss. Just reading that makes me cringe, I know how bad that hurts. A reminder to anybody working on anything, always wear some good gloves if at all possible. They may not stop the injury completely but could lessen the extent tremendously with something like this!

                      I feel the same but hope he gets finger straightened out.

                            He will probably file a lawsuit against the maker of the tool or the owner of the shop for lost money he didn't get since he can't race 😂

                              That didn't take long. Here they come.
