    Who was the ?Mitchell? guy who ran the entire Lucas Oil series with a very low budget

    This was several years ago. I was wondering if he still races and how much he actually spent and made running with the tour that year.

    I was thinking his last name was Mitchell but I'm not sure.

    His name was Roy Mitchell. He still races local here in NW Indiana, but not in a LM that I'm aware of. I think he run an I-Mod.

      It was The Outlaws, he was very much off the pace.
      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

            It looks like in 2007 he finished 13th in points and made 16 races (most/all using provisionals) Most start money was $600- $900

                We here in Northwest Indiana called him Rapid Roy Mitchell. He used to work for former late model racer turned Monster Truck racer and 1985 Brownstown, IN track Champion #20th Paul Schafer. Roy was a good dude. 2 /12 years since he passed. His ex-wife Jeanie raced as well.
