With a heck of a lot of input from randy sweet. Scott is one heck of a wheelman, nobody can disagree with that. His but cheeks had a feeling for what the car was doing and what was needed. Those cheeks is what made him the man to beat. That feeling has left him high and dry. Scott is not and was not the guy who designed his chassis. He had input, but brighter bulbs than his did most of the work. His change at warrior, because his car was like no other, hurt them in the long run. My question is, are the checks for team zero cars made out to scott or brucebuilt and then $$$ go to ?

Good question about the checks. Probably a complicated/contract deal? Bruce has to be assured he gets paid by someone & Scott probably makes a $ or 2. Scott spends slot of time there.
I have to “respectfully “ and I did say “respectfully “ disagree on your comments about Scott not being the innovator/designer of his Chasis. He spent many nights until daybreak laying under his cars studying every piece/part as to what could be improved. Not exactly sure- but I don’t think Sweet really came into Scott’s program in a big way until long after the Warrior years. Sweet Manufacturers was building components for race cars and most everyone used their parts. Not really sure of the time frame as to when Scott/Randy got to be good buddies and bussiness partners. Again: I do strongly feel that Scott has/had a very strong Input in his Chasis design since the beginning. They are built for his seat of the pants feel and definitely not to everyones liking. They are meant to go straight and not get all bound up in the turns. That thinking/driving style may be hurting them in today’s world.
I’m sure Shane McDowell and Fergy make their own changes as well to the cars. Shane has been in the racing game his entire life with Dale and he is one smart dude. But Dale’s driving style resembles Bloomers as to not bind the cars up in the corners. Those team zero Chasis probably don’t flex as much as the other brands- but they last for years.

Does he really have any money coming in these days? Surley not much. I wonder if he even has enough saved up to live comfortably. Racing is so darn expensive.

Bloomer needs to do his fans a favor and ride off into the sunset with what dignity he has left. By dragging out this chit show, he's only hurting his legacy. Really sad for his fan base.8/13/16

I will admit that he makes it hard to continue being a fan of his sometimes. After watching that stunt yesterday I’m wondering if he ever intended on putting the car on the track last night. Kind of looked like it was all for show. They showed his car in the infield at one point and it wasn’t even him climbing out of it.Scott Kleindorfer

No doubt and with no track time anymore it’s probably going to be hard to run up front. TIME will tell. I’m not a fan but I wish he would get his program back to where it used to be.Originally posted by Highside Hustler25 View PostBloomer needs to do his fans a favor and ride off into the sunset with what dignity he has left.

Its called planning and he has nothing never has. If you look back from about 1992 on he has really done what he wants when he wants and has been an arrow with no feathers. He beats himself. Just the thing is he has gotten worse with age as far as stunts and not being prepared. The best thing he can do is start getting to the track the night before the pits open and be prepared and pay attention they blew a (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word) horn to lineup for tech they had 10 minutes. Its one thing if they had to change an engine or something. Someone needs to interview him and to ask serious questions not alien (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word).

Just my curiosity, they brought his car to the infield and someone else got out of it at that point. Was that just for hot laps for the Dream feature? And then they had to bring the car back to the infield and do a tech inspection before going back on the track for the feature correct?
