He was leading with 16 to go, yellow fell, and he flatted under the yellow. Restarted 21st and worked it back to 9th. He was looking awfully racy! Safe bet the winner of the $50,000 in wings is gonna have to go through him. Dollansky, Bacon and Dobmeier looked good too, but Rico looked to have them covered, tonight. Polyak was slugging it out up front with the leaders, too. These outlaws are all gonna make pretty good money, since the whole purse is being split over 25-26 cars, thus the $10,000 to win, $1000 to start in the qualifiers, I guess.

"In the true “outlaw” fashion, any driver from any series is welcome to run with BOSS as long as they meet the requirements in the following rules. Conversely, BOSS will NOT penalize drivers for participating in other events."
Outlaws as used in woo means nothing at all.
Just a fancy name which doesn't match the drivers or race's at all.
Some of the most policed racing there is.
A true Outlaw series=no rules
I'll try to sugar coat this some, the woo
Lol, the most successful dirt track series in the country, by far. The Outlaws are a brand and they protect that brand with their rules.
The "true" outlaw concept is a nightmare for promoters because you don't know who is showing up. Why do you think the woo started all those many years ago?

BOSS is a "true" concept and they pull more cars on average than MSCS, USAC or any other non-wing series in the country. WoO you never know how many cars are going to show either. They may pull enough to run a C-Main or it could be like earlier this week where the Dash alone nearly constituted half of the field.
What I don't get is WoO regulars ran ASCoC events during Speedweeks and it's not an issue, they run Winter Heat at Cocopah and it's not an issue, yet they couldn't run Brandon last night when they themselves had no race? Why?
I realize they're a popular series and they do get fans in the stands although sometimes their races can be less than exciting. But I would think with nothing going on it can't hurt to let drivers go elsewhere. You don't see USAC getting bent out of shape when their drivers do other events on off nights.

Usac use to not liking the drivers running for points to drive the same car at other events. Seen several times that some drivers would just put a letter behind the number. Seen Robert Ballou put a ? On the tail of the car. Bacon running tonight in the # 69 Hoffman car with a # 99 . Lol.
