Tons of Bloomquist hats, shorts and sweatshirts at Carolina Speedway this past weekend (for a sprint car race) Yes. Bloomer sells. Marketing genius.

That said, Lucas may have 13 drivers follow full-time, but 9-13 are rarely, if ever, a threat to win. English is 9th in points and failed to make 7 features.
It's all about 8 drivers:
Lucas, Owen's, T-Mac, Davenport, & Richards
WoO, B-Shep, Weiss, Dillard & Lanigan
Even with injured, 8th in points Bloomer, WoO has the star that still draws more attention than most of the players in the game.
I'm sure if you ask WRG, they'll take their 10 with Bloomer over the 13 Lucas has.
All things being equal I'd tune into a Lucas race over a WoO race and even more so next yr when Thorton Jr joins the Lucas Tour, little O'Neal back in a Sellers race car to go along with a young Moran and English.
Nice stable of young drivers on the Lucas Tour. O'Neal, Moran, English, Terbo.
Has Overton committed to the WoO Tour next yr? Would be awesome to see him and B-Shep battle for points over a whole season.

If they get all the drivers back from this yr with the additions of Thorton Jr AND Strickler, wow, the Lucas Circuit will be fantastic for the fan. ......... Time for Strickler to come out and race nationally no matter if it's Lucas, WoO or even as a true outlaw. He belongs with the big boys.Originally posted by Pennsboro32 View PostI'd bet you will see Kyle Strickler on the Lucas tour in 2021.

I have a friend that used to crew for Kyle in the mid / late 2000's. Talk to him at Brownstown for a while during the Jackson 100. He had said the is the plan down to road to be able to run on tour with either Lucas or WOO if he can get the funding to do so. Kyle is a he!! of a good person and I would love to see him get the opportunity to do so. I believe he could do well. He has shown he can run with them and compete for wins.Originally posted by Pennsboro32 View PostI'd bet you will see Kyle Strickler on the Lucas tour in 2021.Nathan Stephens

In the post race interview after I80 it sounded like it was leaning towards Lucas.2020 race count:
1/2 of an event

I agree with you HDF and I have turned into a huge Strickler fan just watching him get up on the high side and the way he drives the car is crazy. I have to say though the way he handled the adversity and the true painful emotion that he showed at the Eldora race that he was leading and had a flat tire with 2 to go made me want to pull for him that much more

Lucas will be loaded in 2021 with some intersting rookies set to debut.
WOO will be once again the B-Shepp show.
