Are you referring to my above comment?

DOD now has Ann article about Lanigan. Has a concussion- but no brain bleeding! Left the track this morning & is done for the weekend.

Yes, you said Randy Sweet wasn't an asset to Scott Bloomquist.

I completely disagree. How can hip replacement surgery not be more than a fraction. Thats a major ordeal along with lots of rehab. He should've taken the year off to get fit and lose weight along with his PT. I get it there is other noise going on there.

[foxfire2dirtracing]

From a bussiness/racing aspect he definitely was. From a personal/friend (off the track) he definitely wasn’t! Neither are/were saints- but when Scott started running the circuit & trying to be like Sweet in his personal life- it definitely wasn’t what Bloomer needed to be doing. Scott didn’t need to be putting more fuel on the fire.
Until Scott can come to grips with his personal issues- the racing side will continue to suffer. Trust me on this- I am not just speculating/spreading gossip/rumors.

It is a shame/disgrace as to everything he has accomplished to be in the shape and condition he is currently in. Both personal life and business/racing side. The two are interconnected. Most people remember the way one’s career ends rather than the career itself!
He has rebounded before from various situations- only time will tell about the current situation!
I personally- hope he can and does for it would be a shame if he can’t.

You are correct the motorcycle wreck/ hip replacement are major factors in his performance. It hinders his ability to work at the shop and at the track and drive the car without his right leg/foot going numb.
As for taking a year off for rehab- racing is how he makes his living- no racing- no pay bills/debts. Why else would he sale 30% of his team to Cody? Again/ you are certainly correct in saying his injuries have hindered his performance.

Last night (or tonight) Bloomer cannot improve his points standing in WOO. Last night he would have had to start on the tail of the b-main & then progress forward. I would assume he could have taken an emergency provisional- but with starting in the rear for 12k- what was the purpose?Lanigan chose not to use one- and he dropped from 4th to 5th in points ( and was not that far out of 3rd).Speaking of Lanigan:If I heard the WOO announcers correctly- they said something about him going to Rocket Chasis? If so- I guess the Barry Wright deal is over? Has anyone heard anything?

Jonathan Davenport will be back with BWRC in 2021. u heard it here first.

Id be shocked if Rocket built Lanigan a car unless the mended fences, but you never know nowadays.

I absolutely agree with your assessment of the Sweet/Bloomquist relationship. Nail on the head.

I'd say you are correct.

[foxfire2dirtracing]

I may have misunderstood the announcers last night. They were talking about all the Chasis Lanigan had been in -but I thought they said something about going to Rocket. Maybe they were saying he had been in a rocket- could be my bad.
I know after Ryan King made the show they said Sanford Goddard back at Warrior Chasis would be proud- heck Warrior sold out to Knuckles and the King family over a year ago.
Again- I may have misunderstood what they were saying about Lanigan last night. If anybody else caught what they were saying- please post so I won’t feel like a big idiot!

[Hoosier_Dirt]

It was said on Facebook he will be in a Rocket in 2021

[xray]

firefox- you could not be more wrong. Randy bankrolled that operation for years. Scott would repeatedly f Randy over in a sea of ways. Hell Sweet even took the drug charge on the way home from Knoxville so Scott wouldn't lose all his sponsors (again) Sweet helped to keep MBC on the car for years by keeping in touch with Bob. Don't know where you get your info but its wrong. Randy was one of the most dedicated genuine people I ever met. He never pulled any punches and never gave up. Not sure where you get your info but dont go spreading fake news there is enough of that these days.

[fastford]

Sweet has a hindrance to Bloomer? I've heard it all...

yea , maybe they were playing to much 8-ball ....

[Hoosier_Dirt]

I'd say you are correct.

You really think so? I mean yeah they've had a down year for their standards, but cant imagine him leaving LL, unless there is something else going on?
