    Wow what a surprise to see Strickler in a Bloomquist car. Everything looked so quite on the racing front and now this ! Someone get down in the pits this weekend and get all the details for us as to who the engine builder is , the sponsors, and shocks on the Strickler Bloomquist car.

      If Strickler did grab a longhorn the same weekend as he headed to Bloomers, I bet you Bloomquist is going over that thing as I type this , maybe that was part of the deal before heading over to the new ride.

        If there’s a longhorn in mooresburg then Strickler is burning bridges pretty fast in the late model world, and burning a bridge for bloomquist isn’t the smartest thing to do. There hasn’t been a long term relationship with bloomquist at any point in the last 20 years.

        I like the pairing and I like Strickler. Best of luck to them.

          I thought Ringling Bros. had closed down in 2017

            It’s a 2019 Longhorn. And Scott’s cars are not made to drive like any of others. So I can’t imagine there’s much correlation between the Bloomer cars and Longhorns.
            Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

              I hope you’re wrong, but to me, ever since that motorcycle wreck, it has been fill in whatever white trash circus is left deal. Used to be Ringling Bros, that’s too nice as of now.

                I read read the DoD article too. It does not say how old the Bloomquist cars Strickler will be driving after this weekend will be, brand new or used? Not sure how fast the Mooresburg operation can crank out a new car like a Rocket, Longhorn, Capital, MB Customs, Barry Wright, Black Diamond, etc could produce a new chassis. Heck, I think any other DLM chassis builder in the country could produce a new chassis faster than the current Bloomquist deal.........

                    Someone on Twitter called Cody and Scott out saying along the lines of Scott and Cody only brought Kyle in because they need motors and whatever sponsorship money he has. Cody responded by saying they have 3 motors, 2 cars and are finishing a new car for Eldora.

                      Something tells me you'll be excited for this one. Here's the first look at the @SBR_TeamZero car driven by @Highsidetickler.

                          How did Strickler look at Port Royal ? Did he qualify well ? I am sure it will take some time in the car to get it setup for the way he drives. He should do better tonight .

                            From just watching on DirtVision, he looked like a fish out of water flopping all over the place.

                              He was trying really hard to throw it in on the top. He either changes his driving style completely or he mite as well stay on the porch. Granted first night, but every time I saw him on camera he was looking to run the top. Will see what happens with this deal ? But for right now, a bloomie chassis does not fit his driving style at all.

                                Lol as I posted on page 1, we have the high side tickler driving a bloomquist car. It just didn’t seem like a good combo although as people posted back at me drivers adjust. I guess they only adjust if they want to and Stricklers been on that high side his whole career thus far.
