    He ran supers all last year. Won the Shaffer’s oil series championship. Ran the world finals at Charlotte. He’s not average 13 year old. He been driving late models since he was ten. And won a local track steel block championship at 11 or 12

      I definitely agree he is not the average young teenager, he’s pretty good. Raced quite a bit. But, if they finally got an answer from their insurance that says no, then is what it is.
      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

        How about we wait until we get the facts before making any judgements?

              All it says on DOD is that he is sitting out tonight's race. No reason given.

                I haven't seen the kid in person, but i thought he handled the car very well from what I have seen. Look at the pressure he around him the other night when Overton and Jd racing around him for the lead. He held his line and stayed out of the way.

                13 is a lil young to be wheeling one of these cars, but he's not your average 13 year old I dont think. Kinda weird they let him run all the way up until now though.

                  May be a simple as they have an age requirement and he really doesn't look 13 to me (looks older if I was to have to guess) so he may have never been asked about age and after they been saying he was 13 on the telecast, the track found out he's younger then they thought.

                    It was Eastbay that didn’t allow Carder to race, not Lucas.

                          I think WoO requires anyone 13 and under to fill out a youthful participation certificate 7 days prior to competing. Does Lucas have anything like that?

                            I didn’t see anything in the rule book.

                            Lucas said Carder was welcomed anytime to race with them as long as it didn’t conflict with the tracks insurance policy.

                            I wanna say Red(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) was 14 when he raced with Lucas.

                              That would be correct. Heard this as soon as I arrived at the track today.

                                The track insurance was tipped off. They contacted the track and said no. The policy is that drivers have to be legal age to drive. It is not a Lucas Oil issue. It is an Eastbay Insurance issue...
