Further details will be released shortly by the World of Outlaws Late Model Series Public Relations Director.

Could you actually mean, Friday September 4th? Selinsgrove has a two day show on the 5th and 6th.

[Tyler Beichner]

This show will replace the Selinsgrove Saturday show. Selinsgrove will have just a single race that weekend on Sunday

[racefan62]

Thanks Tyler!

Lucas Oil series are at Portsmouth raceway that day.       Sept 5

That doesn't mean squat. Anybody starting close to the front will be here with thirty grand on the line.

Only guy this will impact is Bloomer. Probably depends on where he is in Lucas points. But most likely he will head to Portsmouth. Wonder if they will let some guys rah heats? They may need some cars to fill out Uncle Sam 30.

[Round Robin]

I doubt they run any new heats, but they'll probably let a few new guys tag tail on the B mains. There'll be room to add more guys to those without making them too big.

[Sparkler]

Their should be more locals coming to race in the 3000$ uncle sam, they would only have like 12 cars tonight in it.

I'd bet if Bloomer is more than a couple hundred points out in the Lucas battle that he's at Lernerville both nights.

[Round Robin]

So would I. Unless Bloomer has a good chance of winning more by sticking with Lucas, he ain't gonna piss away a shot at 40 large by not coming to the 'ville. If there's one thing other than snort that Bloomer is into, it's the almighty dollar.

[Tyler Beichner]

There wouldn't be any "new heats". The format stills calls for heats on the final day. I would imagine guys can still pay the entry fee and tag the back of one of those heats

[Lernerville PR BigE]

"New" drivers that were not registered this weekend absolutely will be permitted to join Saturday, September 5th's program and tail the existing heat race lineups that were set by best finish of Thursday/Friday's feature/B-Main finishes.

 

Selinsgrove's Promoter was part of the discussion to reschedule this race and they will announce their new/updated lineup for their Saturday Night show if they have not already done so.

No problem. I'm sure he'll just give up his show money from the Lucas series to go run the Outlaw series. Everyone saw how many lucas teams showed up at lernerville this weekend. All the reasons why teams didn't show this week are interesting. Maybe many of them had good common sense and went back To there shops to prepare for the 3 shows they have coming up this weekend. I wonder how much Bloomquist gets to show. He is the first team everyone comments on, because if he is there it has to be a crown jewel race. lol.

[Benny K]

Teams didn't show because of the weather, I don't think there is some darker agenda. Davenport, Mars, Pearson, McDowell, where just a few that a put out that would be there and then chose not too. Granted only Davenport and Pearson are Lucas regulars. If the forecast would have been better there would have been 10 or so more cars and the car count would have been the same as it is every year. That said Bloomquist will not miss the Lucas shows.

[D1RT]

Bloomquist is 5th in points 345 behind Davenport. 

If he is still there come September i'd be willing to bet he'll be at the Firecracker make up race.

Actually i'd bet he'll be there unless he's running in the top 3 in Lucas points by then.

[Round Robin]

Wonder why they didn't try to run tonight? Today's rain is only nickel and dime showers that won't amount to much. They must have a helluva mess up there to have cancelled their rain date a day early.

[The Legend]

If you miss races you lose your show up money.

[jo73]

I was wondering if anyone would get it ! Legend did.

[BaconBits]

If you miss races you lose your show up money.

That's really never stopped Bloomer from doing what he wants to do, though. He dropped off the Lucas tour just a couple years ago for whatever reason. He dropped the WoO some years ago too.

I don't actually care if he comes back. If he does, cool. If he doesn't, that's cool too.
