Time for Fairbury to bring in a Lucas race

[JayD]

Now that Lucas Oil Series has all the best drivers except bshep it’s time for the to stand up to WOO and have a couple of Lucas races. Eldora you too!

[brsteg]

I know a lot of folks say the 2 big events at Eldora are enough; but I'd love to see Eldora have a Lucas Oil race and a World of Outlaws race during the schedule in addition.

But Eldora is so connected to WRG, a Lucas Oil race may be far fetched.

WoO has a better schedule this year and every race is Live, makes me curious to if there will be any defectors.

[SLIPPING SIDEWAYS]

Yea because Lanigan, Weiss and Junghans to name a few aren't $hit. (Insert major eye rolling)

[427c.i.]

If I remember right, FALS contacted Lucas and WRG told them you'd better not proceed or you'll get stripped of anything WRG/UMP related.

[BloomerWon]

Fals and and Eldora bring them both togather for what is known as the biggest events all year.

Tracks need to band together and tell WRG don’t tell me how to run my race track and I won’t tell you got to do your job. If all the UMP tracks band together that rule about being a UMP track and not running Lucas races would likely be out the window. All it would take is for the UMP tracks is band together and revolt against WRG and that rule would likely be out the door.

Honestly with the way the PDC has evolved, there is no need for FALS to have a separate show. They are getting the best of the best since Lucas is off that weekend anyway. With the pay bump, I'm expecting car count around 80 this coming year. Love Eldora, but the PDC is in the conversation among the best late model events in the country right now. I think it is definitely the best combined late model/mod show anywhere.

So what you're saying is the Midwest Promoters need to Unite in order to overthrow an origination that isn't behaving in their best interest? Hmmmm

What would it take to do a mini series of like 10 races at some of the biggest races of the year and do a Lucas vs Woo kind of like the MLB All Star game and have a promotion that would make it a big event. Or do it at 1 race at the end of the year to see who would be the World Champion like the PBR has

How can anyone say Lucas now has ALL the best drivers when Lanigan, Bloomquist, Madden, and Weiss all are running WoO?

It would take $70 plus admission prices

[racincowboy02]

OK I gotcha

[turnleftandgasit]

$70 dollars for 2 heat races, full inverts of heats. no provisionals and no support classes or stopping on the track to bring out a caution. DEAL, I have my cash in hand.

Optimally, the WoO would become what was basically STARS and Lucas would become what was HAT. Make most of the current crown jewels combo races.

Is this a scoop?
