Marlar not at Eldora

Anyone know why he isnt there? He was invited.

Declined invite. Not sure why. Hasn't been running the greatest. I know he missed the show his last race at 411, which was surprising.

He won the Smoky Mountain WoO show two starts ago. The 411 performance was underwhelming, but I wouldn’t say he’s struggling. Given all the crap going on these days, and the fact he owns his own business and doesn’t race for a living, it’s no surprise he declined going to Eldora and hasn’t raced but the once since the pandemic cranked up. I imagine we’ll see Mike out and about once things start to simmer down.

Details on the team's future will likely be out this week.

Ben, that scares me. Really hope its not bad news.

[Pennsboro32]

That can't be good.

What Ben is referring to: Rigsby stated the other day that the future of Mike & team owner Ronnie Delks plans should come out this week. NOTE: “Should”
Could be good or bad. Delks is known to make radical changes & marches to his own drum- which it’s his money and you have to respect him for that. Last year Marlar stated that the racing he grew up to love- wasn’t there anymore. As stated above- both Mike and Delk are successful business owners & race for enjoyment- not to make a living. This isn’t to say they don’t expect returns on the $$ spent. Mike also stated he gets 30% of what the car makes in winnings.

The hauler and new Longhorn are for sale on Racing Junk. I suppose we will get an announcement soon.

[NeedforLMspeed]
