    Predictions for 2018

    Since Eldora is not competing with Florence on April 28th and paying 5,000 to win will we see 30 or so late models there? Also will the Mansfield Million be a big event that will attract not just Lucas Oil guys but also ALMS and Local guys and rival Eldora and Portsmouth in fan and car counts? Also with an economy picking up will we see more regional and local guys venturing out to travel? Just a few questions.

    I will go out on a limb and say there will be 30 cars for the April 28th race and Mansfield will get 75 late models for their race and you will see more people venturing out.

              Is Bobby Pierce eligible for YoY?

                Pierce, a multi crown jewel winner, can't be ROY.

                1) Davenport super team disbands before the World 100.
                2) Boggs doesn't race a Kryptonite.
                3) There is a rollover at a Cook promoted event.
                4) There is a first-time winner of the World 100.
                5) Tim McCreadie finishes outside the Top 3 in Lucas points.
                6). Less than 50 cars at the dirt Million.

                    I think it's because you can't have won a certain amount of 10k or more races to eligible. Bobby has won his fair share of those kind of races, including 3 or 4 big ones.

                      Hudson Oneal gets a couple Lucas Oil wins and finishes higher than his dad in points. Bloomer back on top in Lucas Oil. Overton wins WOO title by 1 point over BShepp.

                        I predict Matt Miller and Rick DeLong team up with Stephen McCullough with new XR1 and new motors and Matt gets his first globe trophy in September.

                          I predict your going to see some darn good racing in both series. The mansfield million draws 100+ cars and has a first time winner 😉 Bloomquist struggles getting in and out of car. Mark Richards is the new face of the dollar shave club. Hudson O'Neal , if they come out as strong as they ended last year, wins Lucas title. T-Mac struggles in 2018, fast but can't find the winner's circle.

                            I thought Pierce went for ROY the year he won Champions contest but dropped out like in April or May.

                              You are guys are right about Pierce. Wasn’t thinking. Too much Christmas cheer.
