    WOO Bristol Bash - Drivers List

    Looks like 17 drivers turned laps in super late model practice last night. I don’t expect this to be anywhere near the car count as was at the XR races last month, but was hoping for around 30 or so. With the Lucas races now being rained out for the weekend, and word on any of those guys dropping down to Bristol?

    With how hard on equipment Bristol has been I would be surprised if they get anymore than 2 of the Lucas regulars.

      Think I heard on the broadcast they had 23 at the track and one more on the way. Probably Sheppard.

        I’m really surprised Hudson and Double Down haven’t raced here. Hard on equipment yeah but a marquee track in the same area as their headquarters and Lazy Days.

          So they’ll have enough for a full field anyway it sounds like. A bit surprised Ferguson isn’t coming back with how well he’s ran there the last 2 years. We’re huge late model fans, and came to the XR races last year…but really the draw for us coming back up for the WOO weekend this year was that they are doing the late models and the sprints on the same weekend, rather than separate weekends like they did last year. Seeing a sprint car hit over 140 mph around that place should be pretty incredible.

            My race pass has 22 410 sprint cars and 20 late models. Last year all the cars had to be loaded in before Thursday afternoon and once they were in they weren't coming out until after the races. Not sure if that has changed

                      $25,000 to win and they can't attract a full field?

                        Shepp and Rocket1 are at Mineral Wells testing. Seems Sheppy hasn't run there before. Of course that brings up the question why they didn't stop there last Sunday when returning from Atomic.

                          WVMS had 12 cars last week for $10,000 to win. The common denominator obviously being, at tracks like these, winning 10K, or even 25K, isn’t nearly as enticing when you weigh the cost of tearing up your equipment. Only one car is winning. It’s a big risk for the rest of them.

                            In think the whole Bristol dirt hoopla has worn off for both the drivers and fans. It will be interesting to see what the crowd is like this weekend after what looked like minimal fan support for the XR races?
