Bloomquist to have hip replacement surgery???

[whiteplate]

DoD is reporting.

Insurance settlement from a dumb driver and their insurance company be my guess.

Thinking the same.

I'm guessing maybe he's not healing like they expected

[dirtcrazy4u]

Wait a minute, all the doctor's on 4m say he will be back in 3 to 4 weeks. Hahahahaha

That's because they thought it was "staged" while he went to rehab

[HIGH ROLLER]

Bloomer said that himself in dod interview. Good luck to him

[dirtcrazy4u]

If he's back in 3 to 4 weeks then he isn't having a total hip replacement. And why would he wait this long. O Yea I forgot he got drydene's money in the bank.

my 95 yr old Grandma had that surgery. Fairly common replacement surgery for the elderly. lol

[Raceready]

I recall that even in the old # 18 car that his Dad financed his career start with that most everyone of the straight fans said that he was HIPPY back then !

[TS FAN]

Bloomer should consider not rushing back. I do not know why he thinks a title run is so important this year under the circumstances. I understand the sponsor thing, but after knowing many people who have had this surgery, he should be careful. Actually when all is said and done, I think he will. At his age, he has nothing to prove and although I have never been a fan, I would like to see him be racing for a while longer. Just not before he should

[King1]

A title run for bloomquist race cars is important. Not necessarily a title run for Scott Bloomquist. I certainly hope that they are thinking big picture, by looking to sell more cars

[Mod Runner]

I hope Bloomquist gets a second and third opinion from different doctors to ensure surgery is necessary.

Did he race today

Did he race today

Yep, got 4th. Said he's getting the surgery on the 10th so he'll have about a month to heal. I think he said he was progressing pretty normally but not too long ago he started having bad hip pain from arthritis, which is why he's getting the surgery now. Hopefully he doesn't rush himself too much, but at least he's getting the surgery now rather than trying to tough it out all year.
