      Scott did indeed race a Shaw by Taylor to win the 100 thousand at Batesville. He drove a Hughes chassis at Mississippi Thunder. I would not be surprised to see Scott win the 50 thousand at Farley in a Rage chassis. Hunter Marriot and Darin Duffy have won a lot of races with the Rage chassis. I hope I can make it down to Farley for the rescheduled race.

          It’s a rage by Bloomquist. Only gonna be better. Now with the delay and Scott seeing the track it will give him time to make it perfect or pull a sway bar like he did at Eldora and destroy his chances to win lol

            Why doesn't he just decide on one car and keep it in the shop for races like these when he is able to attend.

              I really can't see Bloomquist making it back for a make up date. Looking at the schedule, the only dates Lucas Oil has off, are the weekend of July 26-28, August 3-5, and October 5-7.
              July 26-27 is the PDC for 30,000
              August 3-4 is the USA Nationals at Cedar Lake for 50,000
              that weekend in October is Bloomquist's only off weekend for Late Models, unless he passes up one of those big shows.

                But, this is exactly what the promoters wanted right? I mean you get extra hype and ticket sales based on Bloomquist coming, and now you have all that (since it's been said they aren't refunding tickets) plus now you don't have to worry about the chance of a Late Model guy coming in and taking your Mod guys' money!!

                  There weren't many fans who showed up on Friday, so maybe a couple hundred people bought two day grandstand passes. They weren't pre-selling tickets. If the show-up money is good enough, I'm sure Bloomquist will return.

                    I don't see him skipping a 30,000 or 50,000 late model race to do it. If it's that week of Oct 5-7, he probably would, but not the PDC or USA Nats. weekends.

                      What's wrong with skipping a $30-$50 thousand dollar non Lucas event to run a $50k mod race with a car that has already won a heat race and running top 3 times.

                        Maybe my math is fuzzy since school's started doing it some new way... but isn't $50,000 roughly $20,000 more than $30,000?
                        And he can sell more modified shirts to a base that he may not always be able to sell to.

                        So tell me again why he wouldn't not skip a $30,000 show for $50,000? The guy fully plans on winning the $50K so...

                          Anyone seen an action photo of the modified? Best I saw on Facebook this weekend was a pit picture.

                            No way possible they run that race without the zero in attendance. He already got his 5k for showing up and like BloomerHfan said. The zero will sell tickets. I don’t understand why they said makeup day was Sunday and then cancel Saturday afternoon and not attempt Sunday. Only thing I can think of is maybe they had plenty of seats without as$es in them
