Wouldn't it be something if 1 of them won it.

I think Rick and Tanner have both had really good cars lately.

Anybody know if eckert is running his own stuff or Allen Murray's?

Eckert hasn't raced at Eldora for years, many more drivers out there who are more deserving. jmo

Last time was 2014. I think he finished 8th in the Dream and 9th at the World

Whining about the results of a fan vote is ridiculous.

Nobody's whining, just a fact that there's more deserving guys to run at the BIG E. Doesn't hurt my feelings either way.

This race is being driven by pure PPV revenue. “Deserving“ a spot means jack squat.

Boxing is the gold standard for PPV event buyrates, and it does those buyrates by headlining the most popular (and usually world class) fighters people aren’t paying 80 bucks fight to see the guys in the prelim fights.

If we apply the same theory to this race, the average fan wants to see a long time heavyweight contender like Rick Eckert as opposed to a journeyman who is rarely competitive with the heavyweights like Rusty Schlenk. Now, I’m not knocking what Rusty does, going up 3 and 5k races where he’s got a better chance of actually taking the pot makes way more sense for his program, but it’s not at all flashy or popular amongst the wider DLM fanbase. The wider DLM fanbase is who this race is for.

Even if he got the vote he would of left for some $800 to win race in Missouri.

Other than a couple ALMS races when did he support it. Seems like awhile back Oakshade ran a non points race for guys who weren't going to enter the Dream or World (can't remember which event it was) and he chose to run there instead. Didn't he also leave Eldora once to race somewhere else because he qualifed poorly.

Just because they live in Ohio they think they should automatically be invited? Smh

[WisWildManFan]

Still think Matt Miller should of been Locked in. I’d say that was my biggest disappointment.
