You better listen to davenport's interview on dirt nation. Sounds to me like they are going to see how the rules change in other series. Have not made a commitment to lucas or any other series

Carrier has the Feb /March Lucas Oil Races listed on his website

[W2Racing09]

Updated -- Still just listed ECJ as unsure for Lucas, as running the first few months does not really mean they intent to run that series. Thanks for the update though I added him to the list.

Also added Dillon Wood to WoO and Steve Francis to Lucas (Sadly).

Anyone have updates on Moyer Jr. and Casebolt? Would be great to see WoO pick up both of them.

Thanks,
Jeff.

Francis unofficially announced Lucas the day his wrap was revealed.

Why wouldn't Jr. Jr. run the SN Tour after what he did last year? Closer to Dads shop. Casebolt would have to have the start he did last year to run a Tour.

I think your correct... I won't be surprised to see JD becoming a WOO regular this year. We will have to wait and see.

Dillon Wood will return to chase WoO points in 2016

What is the deal with him? He has appeared to make a comeback a few times, but it always seems short lived.

His site says he running full lucas tho, maybe him and Kevin are trolling?

Considering the trolling they've both done on Twitter, I'm gonna say this is an extremely likely scenario.

Dillon is still a young guy and he has become disenchanted with racing at times. He seems to now be pretty focused and ready to get after it. He has a great dad and mom that fully support him. So he is ready to go.

Carrier is not intending on running the full lucas tour. I can't see outlaws not mandating same rules as lucas and I can't see JD not returning to lucas to at least try to prove they can out smart those guys again.

I do hope that Davenport and the Rumleys tell the Lucas Oil/Bloomquist series where to stick it and run the WoO Series. It would sound better, in my opinion, to be able to say one is both the WoO champion and the Lucas Oil
champion.....from a career achievement standpoint.

Why would WoO have to follow Lucas with rules? Lucas put themselves on an island. Why follow? It is ludicrous that a handful of drivers and a couple series tech officials, lacking technical expertise, would dictate rules for thousands of racers.

Lends creedence to the old phrase, it's who you know, not what you know........

Either way and whatever happens,I'm sure there is some " figuring out" sessions going on in and around the trinity nc region.

It may not be the complete hog tying like last year,but I would be shocked if the success isn't early and often from the 6 team.
