    Sheppard's car and now Richard's car are both running the D3 style engines while Bloomquist runs RY45 style engines. Overton runs a combination of both RY45 and D3.

      Promoters are missing the boat by not hyping a Ford vs. Chevy rivalry... win on Sunday buy on Monday was never a bad thing.

        9 times out of 10 its engine debris that kills / stops the pump.....

          True. But I wouldn't without knowing for sure, say the motor fell apart. If they say oil pump, then oil pump it is.
          Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

            Bloomquist won the Dream in 95 in a Ford. He started running Ford engines in 1994

              I bet Bloomquist is happy to be getting back closer to home. Scott runs extremely well on all 3 tracks coming up this weekend. in fact at Smoky Mountain last year, it was a Bloomquist Chassis 1,2,3 finish.

                  Richards uses Dream off week and lull in Lucas competition to make his car faster.

                    Anyone who goes this weekend make sure you watch bloomys rear tires almost lock up when he gets out of the fuel. Its very evident under caution while they throttle up and what not. Pretty interesting to see his driveability prefrences vs others.
