Lucas Oil and WoO Rosters

[huskerdirt]

Here are a few other drivers I was wondering about:

Mason Ziegler (Has too much talent to not be racing Nationally)
Bub McCool (Would like to see him back racing Nationally)
Randy Weaver (Going to continue just running regional events?)
Tim Fuller (heard he lost/is losing his BBM ride)
Jordan Yaggy (What is he going to be doing if not running WoO)
Ricky Weiss (Making the jump to the National Stage?)
Bobby Pierce (Going to continue just running regional events?)
Clint Smith (Back to the National tour? Ultimate would be a good fit for him)
Kent Robinson (Just running regionally?)

Also heard some news regarding Clint Smith's former car owner? Will he be on tour?

Thanks,
Jeff.

I don't expect any of those guys to run national tours of any sort except maybe Ziegler. Even that might be a stretch.

Yaggy will run around Minnesota with CBC/MARS/MLRA. Clint Smith is enjoying just racing local now.

Todd and Dillion Wood just got back into it like yesterday. I don't foresee them jumping in to national scene just yet (if at all).

Paul Wilmouth will be in Bloomquist cars.

Paul Wilmouth will be in Bloomquist cars.

and Austin Hargrove will be turning the wrenches. they will be fine.

[Pennsboro23]

Interesting move by Wilmoth.

I'm sure Austin will be much happier racing all season instead of the couple months a year Davey J likes to.

for sure, Austin lives to race.

Paul and Austin had their Bloomer at Charlotte last month.

Weiss has intentions every year but never makes it through Florida before changing his mind.

Clint and Kent own and operate their businesses, I see them running regionally.

I wouldn't be surprised to see Weaver try Lucas up until Wheatland.

Paul and Austin had their Bloomer at Charlotte last month.

Paul has had that car for awhile. I believe he ran it at the UFO race at Tyler back in July. It was rumored that is Madden's Sweet/Bloomquist car.

[BadlandsBandit12]

how about these guys, Ryan Gustin? Chris Simpson?

I heard Eddie Carrier might run the outlaws somewhere on facebook.

[BadlandsBandit12]

How about Mike Marlar, what are his plans? Same for Chris Madden?

Believe DaveyJ and Austin ran a Bloomer too in limited action during 2015. Good luck to Paul Wilmoth, local guy I've watched his entire career.

Gustin will probably run the MLRA tour again, not sure why he doesn't run a national tour we all know he can wheel it. Must be afraid to run with the big boys since his f-up at the Silver Dollar a few years back.
I'm sure Simpson will stay around Iowa, probably couldn't hack it on such a grueling national tour schedule.
Not sure about Carrier but he'll probably run the Lucas tour or stay around home I don't see him jumping on the WoO tour at all

Living out west, it would cost a fortune to run a tour. No way Carrier runs Lucas after giving up his Lucas rent a sponsor.

I highly doubt Gustin is afraid of running with the big boys considering he is at virtually every Lucas show in that part of the area. The guy has a family and such. Those things go into consideration when deciding how to race. I know it's hard for your mind to wrap itself around that concept. But give it a shot.

You do know that Carrier ran the WoO for a couple years before he ran Lucas, right? Considering the number of WoO races within relatively short distance from home base in 2016, It's not out of the realm of possibility that he could do it once again.
