Would Tanner Thorson have a ride in all 4? What is a realistic number for drivers who will ever have a ride in all 4?

Well at least after reading it says there's a 25k bonus for winning three of the classes..

well you can bet your last dollar that Bryan Clauson will be running all 4 divisions on Saturday night
he can knock out 1/50th of his 2016 schedule in one night while also picking up a $100,000 bonus. |

I agree with most of your posts. Especially the ones about a Kunz midget! I keep hoping more winged racers will she'd the lids and compete with usac. As far as usac guys putting a wing on, I'm not as anxious to see that. My opinion on that is the outlaws and ascoc guys go around the country beating up locals who run wings every week, things would have to go pretty well for a guy who runs wings once or twice a year to beat them. That said the 25k is in play, with BC being the favorite there, and he is probably the one with a realistic chance at the 100k

Maybe even a taller order would be Blaney crossing over and trying to fit in a midget. No pun intended.... |

Thorson could be in either the Rudzic #49 in which he runs pretty good or a Kunz sprinter. How about Matt Westfall ?

Bottom line being in a Keith Kunz midget is a must at a half mile like Eldora if you wanna win. However, I will be the first to say BC won at the Belleville Highbanks this year against the Kunz crowd. I think that pretty much means he's the only one with a shot at the complete sweep. Kunz announced his full time drivers: Bayston, Macedo, Thorson, and Ryan Robinson. So the question is, IF Bell or Rico were allowed to show or could show, would Keith have a car for them available? Rico hasn't typically ran non wing sprints and has never ran a crown car, so I don't believe he could win 3 or 4...Bell on the other hand....JMO

I think a guy that some of you are overlooking is Chris Windom, he won in a sprinter and in a silver crown car on the same night a couple years ago and has had some wing experience.

Eldora is really stepping up their game in 2016. Added payout $ to prelim nights of both the Dream & World 100 weekends. Added $100k to Kings Royal & added another night of racing to that weekend. And then this potential bonus on top of it. For the grief that Tony gets in some corners, I think he has been an excellent steward of the hallowed grounds. Made lots of facility improvements and keeps raising the $ that the drivers are racing for.
Hopefully a few guys materialize over the year that will try all 4 divisions to give it a go for the $100k. |
