Little late to have scales tested for that event

[cjsracing]

"How is Bloomer going to prove what his car weighed that night? Virtually impossible! Once he pulled away from the scales, he forfeited the money in my mind. Anybody could have added the missing 25 lbs after that point. Bloomer went across those scales at least 5 times before that feature. If there were inconsistencies, others would have noticed along the way. That scale weighed about 400 cars that weekend at least. Others would have had problems as well?"


Actually it would be pretty easy. Say Bloomer weighed 2275 at the Dream and had to weigh 2300. The State inspected the scales and determined they were of 40 lbs. Thus Bloomer's weight of 2275 was really 2315 with correctly calibrated scales.

I am not saying this is what is happening but it would be pretty easy to figure out what his car weight was knowing how much the scales were off by.

According to the article, with 2500 lbs on the scales, they weighed 30 plus pounds light.

Im assuming, they have been calibrated correctly now. You would think Eldora would publish that info, or they are scared of the bad pr they would get from it!

No...... That's according to what Bloomquist said he received from the Weights and Measures department.

You and I both know, that most of the time what Bloomquist says and what actually happened are two different things.

You never know if he's playin mind games or not. However, if what he says is true, that should be public knowledge. According to the state dept, they issue a sticker that is supposed to be posted for the public to see.

You have no idea what Bloomers lawyer said to him. You can think what of you want of Bloomer. But he is pretty darn smart and good businessman.
