    30 consecutive years......!

    According to Dod, Bloomer has won a 5 figure winners check for 30 straight years! Don Oneal is the next closest at 19!

    Impressive, I don't care who you are!

        Here's a stat for you...

        Billy Moyer and myself have a combined 836 late model feature wins.

          Look at you, poking the hornets nest, snowflake storm, whatever you wanna call it. Talk about whoever they like and it’s all good, much praise indeed, but oh no, don’t talk about that devil in the zero car.
          Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

            Buck Simmons had a 1,000.

              Always heard Roger Dolan is well over 1,000 wins as well (thought it was cool Benny Parson's talked about it when he was doing TV). 30 years of winning at least one 'big money' race is something as well..

                Going back to 1989, there could not have been to many races with a winner's take in the 5 figures.

                  He won the World 100 in '88 and '90, so that would've taken care of two of the first three years of this streak. Then he started running the HAT series in '93. He only had to win one of the higher paying series races each year since then to continue the streak, and that would be easy for someone of his caliber. The most impressive part about Scott's career, IMO, is the longevity and consistency. I don't think he's the best driver I've ever seen, but no one is better at setting up the car, managing tires, etc., and he's definitely #1 in accomplishments, by a long shot. While some guys faded, by either choice or circumstance (Moran choosing family over racing, Moyer's back issues, etc), Scott just keeps on rolling. He's like the Pete Rose of DLM racing. Pete was never the greatest hitter at any time in his career, but he's the Hit King, because he has the most career hits and no one will ever surpass him. Scott was obviously the best in the business at times, but I still see him in a similar light at Rose. And that's a big compliment.

                    Interesting stat. Thanks for sharing. Man he’s been consistent and has been on top of all the changes to a dirt late model for 30 + years.

                        1989 Pittsburgher. I think it would have been 10k or more
                        1991, Jackson 100 paid 12k
                        1992 forward it seems a big portion of STARS and HAT races paid 10k plus.

                            I was a big Roger Dolan fan but he was nowhere near 1000 feature wins - I would say 350-400. His son Ryan has got a ton of wins in his long career and is still going strong.

                              The ones that won a thousand (if you say so) races are the ones that spent the 60's and 70's at their local tracks, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, winning $300 dollar features against the locals before the racing series were created.
