Bloomer and Sommer

[kazual]

Something in the new alignment reminds me of the term “selling your soul”, hope I’m wrong. When someone else has a big say in your day-to-day decisions it can be frustrating, especially with someone that has been as independent as Scott.

[ImCryn2]

The sale probably has to do with needing a certain sum of money to settle the divorce. I'd rather sell a portion of my brand than sell everything i own.

I can't speak with 100% certainty, but I don't remember seeing anything in the press releases that state Cody purchased anything, only that he became part owner. Perhaps a stake in the company is what he gets for his services.. Either way, the less you own, the less you can lose.

[ImCryn2]

I was thinking the same thing kazual, I hope the partnership is long lasting and successful, but it could be short lived because of what you mentioned also. I wish everyone involved nothing but good luck.

[CILDirt]

This whole thing seems weird. I would have thought the obvious partnership was with Shane Mc Dowell. Especially if they are moving in to R&D.

"The team will begin taking on more developmental projects including building a new car specifically for testing and R&D purposes, a dedicated pull-down area within the race shop headquarters, custom equipment for aerodynamic research"

When i read this i vision other race teams folding...

I wonder if he can run this any better than he can run his race track.

[CIRF]

This whole thing seems weird.

Just about everything ol' bloomy has ever done seems weird. But, one thing is for sure, he has made it all work very, very well, at least in his own generic dirt late model, he has. So, given his career numbers in the late models, I reckon it'd be a bit foolhardy to second guess ol' bloomy at this point.

Its nothing that other chassis builders don't have.

So, anything that Cody promotes/owns and we choose to support, ie: Dirt Million, Gateway Dirt Nationals, will be just like supporting Bloomer himself?
Uh oh....

Yeah, my first thought was that this creates a conflict of interest on some level.

I don’t think you’re allowed to say that lol.

[Late_Model_Mark]

Curious on this whole deal. Will Mr. Cody book Mr. Bloomquist appearances at various venues across the nation? Kind of like the days of booked in Nitro shows of the 60s',70's and 80's at strips across the USA? Will Mr. Scott get some bank as before to come run at a track for a fee?

[klemmabyna]

cody as a business partner? and all the rest of during a hall of fame career.

Jesus Christ! get back on the track.

cause the rest of the story is nothing more than a long running cartoon.

[Barbecueboy]

OH look, another visit from the hall monitor frowning about something truthful someone else has to say.

Didn't see that one coming at all
