Paul Wilmoth Jr and car owner Eric Hudkins have parted ways

[00Hdmn]

Benedum was in the car again at atomic tonight.

Where did he finish?

third in his heat, 9th in the main per FB

I can't say Benedum is a step up from Wilmoth if he planned to put him in the car he should have just stayed with Wilmoth. The car seemed to do the same at Atomic that it did down in Florida started out pretty fast and when the track slicked over the car went away with it. In FL Paul was very fast in qualifying most nights but as the evening went on it seemed the car would fall off seemed like it lacked forward bite. I wonder if the cause is bad tire selection and or grooving, car set up or driver?

You're right, not much difference in Benedum and Wilmoth. Both good local drivers, but not much more than that. If Hudkins wants to be successful he is going to have to find a stout regional guy like Hawkins, Dohm, Miley etc. or an young up and comer like Zack Dohm, Tyler Carpenter, etc.

I would be curious about a guy from I believe Delaware Austin Hubbard he seems like a good young driver with potential as well.

Hubbard drove on the national lvl for Dale Beitler for a year or two. Was consistent but didn't set the world on fire. Given a second chance and the right car I think he would do well though

Guy is fearless..........I like watching him race.

Anyone have any insight into this as who will be in the cars the rest of the year?

Haven't heard any news.

Looks like that move booting Wilmoth is working out great for Hudkins. Benedum's first Woo/Lucas race DNQ hahahaha!

Hawkins need a chance in this ride.

I would like to see Brent Trimble in a super late model he's dominant in a modified that's for sure.

He is at the local level but past that he hasn't proved anything, needs to step out a little IMO.

[WVdirtguy1]

I agree. He shows the potential that he could do well if give the opportunity.

Tremble is good at elkins that's about it. And as long as you start in the front row at elkins & can hold your line you have a chance to win very little passing.
