    I dont think he will ever have a house car that somebody drives or there will be any replacement..I think Scotts ego is too big to let anyone else flourish in the limelight...especially from his work. He may still build a car for a few people but when hes done he wont be heard from...

            Great Hall Of Fame baseball players generally don’t make the best managers. I’d be surprised if somewhere down the road he has a long term, successful run as a team owner / non driver. Not in his make up. I “could” see him using different drivers for a few races. What could be better marketing than to say “see, anyone can run well in my cars”. And lastly, I believe he would be a miserable owner to drive for.
            I hate time trials.

                  Easy 49superman! You have struck a nerve w offcenter. This will send him off the deep end as you bring up some truth on his boy.
                  Easy on offcenter as his tree doesnt branch and this will put him into a rant.

                          I would never say Bloomquist is a God, that's a ridiculous statement. Scott is a great driver, but more importantly a great inventor. He will be missed when he decides to leave the sport as a driver. He will still be around as an owner though. But even TerryM and the other people who really hate him can't argue that he doesnt increase ticket sells. That's a false statement. Either you hate Bloomquist so much or you just don't talk to alot of track owners but I have and they will tell you Bloomquist is good for an extra 500 to 750 ticket sells for an event. Its an extra $20,000 at the gate for track owners if they can announce ahead of time that he is coming. I've talked to dozens of track owners and they all say the same thing so don't be foolish and say he doesn't increase the popularity of the sport. The sport will survive without him though, but ask a casual race fan if they know anything about late models and the majority will say I've heard of Bloomquist... I've been to Austrailia at late model events and seen Bloomquist shirts everywhere. So it's pretty dumb to say fans don't show up to see him race. Atleast 500 do I guess. LOL.
