Your right, maybe tony wanted a nice trophy instead of something that looked like it came out of a thrift shop.

It’s not about whether it looks cool to some random person, is it fashionable, well no, not really. It is purely nostalgia and symbolism. You want the Globe.Originally posted by Mason87 View PostYour right, maybe tony wanted a nice trophy instead of something that looked like it came out of a thrift shop.
You sure are arguing quite a bit over something you don’t care about.Up in the air who my next “favorite†driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normalâ€.

Well, there is the fact that the World 100 always draws more cars than the Dream when the Dream pays way better. You never hear them say Billy Moyer collected 6 World 100 paychecks either, they say he has 6 Globes. I don't think anyone is going to pass on the check, but the globe had been a big part of the weekend 48 times, I don't see the point of changing that on the 49th race. I could see them maybe wanting to change it up somehow for the 50th, but even then just incorporating a globe into a different design.

If Bloomer had won I'd bet you would be all upset !!!!!!!!!!!!!!Originally posted by Mason87 View PostMaybe its everything to a driver or owner but as I fan I dont give a crap and to say why not change the NFL, NHL or MLB trophies because you can go around and ask any random person on the street and they would know what that is. Ask about the globe and only small percentage would even know what the trophy was for.

Lance Landers sure as hell isn't making a profit running team 49. I bet he'd like a Globe to display.Originally posted by kidrock View PostHaving the check puts food on the table not a trophy. I highly doubt to many are going to say keep the check but, give me the globe.Modern Day Spec Wedge Racing

Here is a great point, they always gave away 2 Globe trophy's, one for the driver and one for the owner. Lance got robbed of a Globe trophy.Originally posted by MasterSbilt_Racer View PostLance Landers sure as hell isn't making a profit running team 49. I bet he'd like a Globe to display.

Lol Mee how do you automatically assume I'm a bloomer guy? Wouldn't care either and CnB fan I dont care just think it's funny to get your panties in a twist; truth is I haven't even seen the trophy JD crossed the checkers tv off and I went to bed.

Every sport has its event were money isn't the most important thing and thats what the world 100 is to DLMR, so stuff like hardware is important. When I first read this thread I was concerned that the trophy was just a typical trophy but I looked at it on DOD it still has a globe on it from the best I could see. The past trophys did look cheap so maybe this new one won't hurt the image.

There's no Globe, just a modernistic sphere. It's a powder coated hunk of metal that misses the mark.Originally posted by Crossbones View PostEvery sport has its event were money isn't the most important thing and thats what the world 100 is to DLMR, so stuff like hardware is important.

I can't see calling it a redesign of the Globe trophy at all, which is one thing, instead it's a new thing that replaced the Globe trophy. Not cool, IMO."The Wise One"

Personally, for me to accept the redesign, which the World 100 trophy has had different designs before just not in a long while, they need to add a proper Globe. Hollow it out so it isn't just a chunk of metal, it'll look better and I'd like it to be light enough where the winner can lift it in celebration. (Taking about where you can see through the trophy) Drop the powder coating and plate it with Silver or chrome (Gold plate next year). The silhouette isn't that bad.Originally posted by brsteg View PostI can't see calling it a redesign of the Globe trophy at all, which is one thing
It just went too far off the rails, all modern and no tradition.Last edited by brsteg; 09-12-2019, 02:01 PM."The Wise One"
