    Won't work. Moyer tends to leave in the middle of night for a lesser paying event. Bloomquist sticks around and even though gets whooped on makes up for it in merchandise sales

      He doesn't need to do anything else. If he quit tomorrow he's got nothing left to prove.

        All Scott has to do is ensure he has racecars that can put him in Victory Lane. He would be better off by not building very many race cars so he could focus on winning. If he wants to build racecars just for his friends that know how to set up their own cars , he would accomplish more.

          I like the "Legends Tour" idea....

          Package 3-5 drivers with an affordable price tag that gives the local promoters name drivers without the cost of bringing in a tour.

          Other outsiders could come on their own dime.

          35 years ago it cost us $5-7000 to bring in Bobby Allison, Mark Martin, Dale Sr., and other popular drivers. Lesser drivers could be had for $3k.

          I brought Martin in to drive my modified for "$1,000" , and nice hotel and dinner for himself and his bride. But he was already in state for another show.

          We used to put the Stars in cars we rented from our regulars.

            noitall93w ????? I am the fool when clearly you can't fkn read you moron! Bloomquist had a nasty fall two years ago at Eldora and injured his shoulder badly. That happened the year before the motorcycle accident that needed hip surgery. Are you really that stupid or do you just have no reading comprehension at all????
            If you ain't fast, you're running last!

              Fall at Eldora coincidentally when a drug test needed to be taken.

                      Second, run a true Outlaw schedule. Better yet, call up Moyer and do it together.

                      Third, run a few S/N shows in the Midwest or regional shows down South at tracks you haven't been to in a bit. JUST FOR FUN!!

                      Fourth, get a young gun in one of your cars asap. The Weiss departure is a big deal. If "selling" cars is the future, start that transition now before you lose any and all chance to stay in the game.
                      I agree. There are enough big money events in the Southeast, on tracks that a healthy Bloomquist can win 50% of, to make a great year. Throw in one of Ray Cook's short seasons, like you said run some SN races, hit your fav big races.
