I don't see why he would need to do this. Sweet and Bloomquist are partners and friends, I don't think a 3rd party would need to be involved if Randy wanted Scott on the Lucas tour. And what does $10,000 mean to Scott in the grand scheme of things?

Story says it's the 2nd year he's done this so I doubt it has to do with Scott's WOO ramblings at Volusia. With the hole Scott dug at speedweeks his odds of getting this bonus are slim but doable.

$10k to Bloomer doesn't mean much but $85k does which would be how much the champ gets.

85 thousand is still less than the WOO champ gets

but it's $75,000 already. Adding $10,000 is a nice bonus for the guy who ends up with it, but I doubt anyone is going to follow the series all season because of that $10,000.

Why does Lucas Oil pay less to its champion than WoO? Is the justification that they have bigger money races on their schedule?

Pretty much

If Sweet was doing it just for Bloomquist, wouldn't you think he would just give the money directly to Scott? He is wanting the Lucas series Champion to win as much as the WoO Champion....... Maybe some other businesses will match him and get the Lucas Champ money to 100k.

Does the Lucas oil program need propped up by outside money?

Anyone know the top 5 breakdown for each series?

NO!!!! Bloomie would laugh at this thread if he read it. BTW he seems to think he is too far behind in points to win the Lucas championship. This is only thing that will matter to him as far as staying with Lucas. He will still run a lot of their races anyway IMO

I thought i read before that the money was spread out with all the diiferent point groups they have and evened everything out or payed more overall. The crown jewel cup, t.v. points, hard charger, etc

Lucas has about 45 left. And then WoO has about 40 I think.

This about sums it up pretty good
