    I would have liked to hear what his excuse was. I'll go out on a limb and say it would have been something to the affect of "We lost our best tire in that explosion. We'd been prepping it all week. It blew up. Put us behind the speedball, I mean the 8 ball. We just uh, yeah, my dad used to be a pilot."

        He avoids interviews often on DoD. That is just fact. I was at I-80 And it was a great race. He was hauling the nail the last 20 laps and could have made it interesting with a caution. That is all. Wanted to hear his take. Nothing more and nothing less.

          I like his interviews, as he chooses his words wisely. If you listen closely, he usely gives hints at what particular area of handling he adjusted on!

            Just throwing it out there.... Maybe he didn't know he was gonna get interviewed. DoD usually interviews the top 3, he got 4th. There was sure a crowd waiting for him after the races Saturday night.

              Caution with 12 or 13 to go and ended up 4th. Not sure what else you wanted for him?

                  The problem is his fans who pay good money to see him race deserve an interview. The fans are the sport! Bloomer would not be racing if his fans didn't buy his shirts! He said many times that he able to race because his fans buy his apparel! So he should take a five minutes for a interview! If these drivers don't have fans then we have no sport!

                    Fan here I haven't stoped shelling out cash for a shirt now and then. Many are wearing his latest apparel. He's big business in this sport. I don't give a truck if he doesn't do certain interviews. If he felt beter left unsaid... I'm good with that.

                      I will chime in on this topic with my two pennies worth but first of all, how in the hell did a famous pornstarlet get her name mentioned on this topic, huh chupp ? Granted Jenna is still kinda' hot, but for god's sake, you coulda' used my favorite Christy Canyon and (still) made your point !

                      As for Scott, this site is over 20 years old now, and people of 1997 were typing the same ol' stuff about him way back then, and its still going on even today. The man has staying power and always will for as long as he keeps racing and that is a testament to his popularity in our sport. I agree there's times he can be bombastic as all hell ( like at Cedar Lake a few years back ) but from talking to him quite a few times in the numerous races I've been to he doesn't come off to me as a guy you wouldn't want to have a beer and a chaser with. Last time I talked to him was last year at Eldora and he made me laugh for a good ten minutes about all the speculation and bullsheet that is written and said about him. So in conclusion, he understands that there's those out there who don't like him, but he also knows that he still has hundreds of thousands or so who respect him for what he has done in our sport. I have a strong feeling that there is no one in this sport will ever come close to what he has achieved; I know I've enjoyed it ( except for that night at Cedar Lake ) which I told him about and all he said was " well, I did enjoy the hell outa' that 50 grand " !

                        When people pay you $$$ to show up and race at certain events... Not many can say that.

                          I'm also a fan of bloomquist have met him many times over the years and honestly don't care if he interviews or not. Just because I buy his shirt does not say I deserve anything from him! If you get mad and feel cheated because you bought a shirt that's sad. Like I said I have met him many times and have all good experiences with him and he takes the time to speak to you when you stop by his trailer, hell his wife even took my daughter on their ATV to get hotdogs and he earned a lifetime fan because of that.
