Face it. The Lucas series is going to be tough each night. Other than the Lucas tow money and what not he's going to miss. (Not sure how different it is from WoO) It's probably a smart move for him.

MI Dirt Fan, I agree, Lucas has had the tougher competition for years. It's just more lopsided this year than ever.

Tell that to the Rocket1 team, b/c their win % was higher in the Lucas races they entered last year than WoO races.

[Zonks32x]

I'm still hearing rumblings another driver may run WoO full-time depending on how they do during speedweeks.

Well yeah. When you enter say 6 races. Win 4 and top 5 and top 10 in the other compared to entering 40+ events and winning like 10-12.

No lucas or speedweeks for zeigler

WoO 2018
6 different full-time WoO drivers won a race
Bloomer(2), Owens(2). T-Mac ftom Lucas had wins
McDowell(2), Moyer Jrjr, Hedge(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word), and Simpson also had wins

Lucas 2018
12 full-time Lucas drivers won a race
B-Shepp(5), Madden, Erb from WoO had wins
Overton(2), Jameson, Weiss also had wins

Was curious, so I looked at it in more detail.
14 different winners on WoO tour, 18 on Lucas. Not sure if the above proves anything other than it's extremely difficult to win at that level.

Gives one a better appreciation for drivers/teams that win 6+ races on a tour year in and year out, or win events on both tours each year.

Brent Larson retuning to the WoO tour 2019

That's big. WoO needed another high caliber driver. Roster looks pretty good now.

Sheppard
Madden
Clanton
Lanigan
Erb jr
Weiss
Overton?
Junghans
Briggs
Dillard
Hardy
Smith

That's a solid 12 plus a couple others.

Brents facebook page from Jan. 28th indicates he and the team are headed for GA/FL for 2019 kick-off for the WoO tour. He must have found sponsorship!

Thought I remember hearing Brian Shirley say last year he was planning to run woo in 2019 but haven’t heard anything more about it. Is he going to Florida?

[HoosierDirtFan]

Yes Shirley is going to Florida.

To update this thread now, we could remove Eckert and Zeigler, neither are in FL. We can also move D. Erb from Lucas to WoO. That leaves us with 14 potential for WoO and 16 for Lucas at this point. Overton, Satterlee, BMJ, and a few others are uncommitted and likely to drop off soon too.

I have updated the lists. Thanks.
