To me personally that was probably the best interview ever , Are used to not be a fan of his but it just goes to show when you sit down with someone on a personal level it will change your mind
He is by far the greatest to ever grip it and rip it in a super late model......man can build and setup a car and has stayed more consistent than anyone else
What a drive. Scott kept his car straight through that whole race. Didn't pitch it sideways.... Another Great driver who always drove his car as straight as possible was Gary Balough. Can't count how many races those two won by doing that. Both are Legends. Scott is going to be missed for a long, Long time. GOD BLESS Scott.
In the 90s I watched him race at Lakeview Motor Speedway and win the hava Tampa 100 and he was toting the left front wheel all the way around that track and it was the fastest I've ever seen anybody at Lakeview to this day
I kept hearing that he had strips of Lexan woven through the netting. Not sure why other than maybe the slightest advantage of aero. Or like you said......a distraction
say what you want about him being this and that, the man is the smartest person when it comes to dirt late models. now we get to see him take a shot again at the biggest mod race this year.
This was my first time ever at Eldora, I still remember these 100 laps like it was yesterday, i was probably as pissed as Black Sunshine when they sent him to the rear but I new he was fast and had a perfect handling car, and who is better than Scott at driving from the rear and saving tires🤘🤘!!!! So happy I got to witness this in person it was fucking amazing
@@kylehellams8558 I keep wondering when he is gonna retire, I figured within the next 5 years if not sooner!! And yes he has been looking fast, him and bloomer ran side by side with him ending up ahead at the checkered a few times last year. Glad to see #44 back in a Bloomquist chassy
@@kylehellams8558 its looking that way... I'll be sad to see Bloomquist give it up but at least he has decided to place another good driver in his chassis and still gives me somebody to route for on the Bloomquist team
Keith Clark What I’m trying to say is, no matter the equipment you have, it still takes unbelievable talent to be a good driver. Especially at all the tracks, because as you know they’re all different and bring out different driver’s strong suits and weaknesses.
I've been watching bloomer for 30 years,he's always been great,I would have loved to seen him in NASCAR,I bet a few championship years would have been different.
Ive been on the side of putting cars together, what great respect i have for scott. You never know when your going to get paid by winning a race. The skill set you halft to have to make these cars dig into the track and go. Also the variables that go into decision making, its so much going on in your head and to keep this all in working order is monumentle. Im so happy for him to see years of trial and error come together. Hard work is very rewording. There is always a winner in the race, just wish people would know how much it takes to get there and its all for our entertainment.
That right there shows you why I still like the fast car starting at the tail of the field. I always took more pride starting at the rear working my way all the way up to the front compared to starting up front and being a fast qualifier and know that you should be running up front no matter what when you already started up there
Alot of fast racecars have been destroyed because they had to start in the back, I always hated winning a heat race only to start in the rear because the promoters wanted a better show.
Smart thinking with the window net for drag & a bit of side force coming out of the corners & to give everyone something to talk about & take the heat off of what is illegal in the car lol
If you look closely when they pull it off his car it was a window net attached with bolts or rivets to a piece of plexiglass, but he still dominated without it
This is easily one of the top 3 top drives of all time. I’d say THE BEST until Bobby Pierce came from the back twice this year at Fairbury topped him. Still the best late model driver to do it so far… RIP Scott
Scott was his own he did his own thing an is the best in a race car an we will miss him just like we miss dale rest in peace my friend you were loved an will be missed Scott
I remember going to my first Lucas Oil Super Late Model race at I-55 and remember there was an equal amount of of love and hate for Bloomquist back then (early to mid 2000s can't remember the exact year). He won the feature that night and there was people booing the guy. I guess at the time the Show Me state had a thing against winners.
Yes that particular window net would be considered illegal as it does enhance performance with the plastic. But that car was just hooked up the whole night and he could just put it anywhere and make speed. Love him or hate him, he just flat out out drove the field.
Hey Cuz you showed Them what Happens when you put a viking/swede/ and Irish bloodline to test i never ever seen this happen before for being to safe, your the best !!!
I went and watched him in Tennessee wish I was there to see that he is the best I bought my girl one of his shirts she loves it, and I got me one just it
SCOTT WE LOVE TO SEE YOU RACE, I WANT TO KNOW IF YOU ARE RELATED TO ANY OF THE BLOOMQUIST'S IN TOMAHAWK , WIS. ?? THAT IS MY BACKGROUND, GOOD JOB BARBARA POPPENGA
Here in 2024 after the aliens decided they needed him back… We love you Bloomer. Thanks for all the memories ☠️🛸

Just saw the news today and had to re watch some old videos. Sad day to see the goat leave the world behind
I love that smirk when he talks about the window ........net !
Who's Here because of Dale Jr's podcast?
EDIT: 8-16-2024 RIP Scott. Your gone from this Life too early!
This guy!
Good runs deserve accolades there it was, is,always
To me personally that was probably the best interview ever , Are used to not be a fan of his but it just goes to show when you sit down with someone on a personal level it will change your mind
This Guy, just a year later 😂
Plane crash
He is by far the greatest to ever grip it and rip it in a super late model......man can build and setup a car and has stayed more consistent than anyone else
Had the pleasure of meeting him at the 2024 calabash with my little sister rest in peace to a legend
Who knew this Friday night you would be racing in heaven
I was at this race it was a truly impressive display of dominance from one of the best wheelman to have ever drove a super late model
I ran 2nd to him on IRacing last year. He beat by .006 to the line lol. Chatted for a while with him.. Helluva nice guy!!!
He raced on PC? DAMNNNN makes him more of a legend
Only one thing faster than Bloomquist..........a pissed off Bloomquist
That was an underrated comment by commentary for sure!
He cuts those corners so tight, nobody else is even down there. He definitely has that car set up right to make that track short
RIP Scott Bloomquist
What a drive. Scott kept his car straight through that whole race. Didn't pitch it sideways.... Another Great driver who always drove his car as straight as possible was Gary Balough. Can't count how many races those two won by doing that. Both are Legends. Scott is going to be missed for a long, Long time. GOD BLESS Scott.
The man is a beast when he gets behind the wheel. I don't think I've ever seen him smile that much.
Even tho he's done all that. You still gotta say he's one that will make you have butterflies when he shows up.
Î
@bernieharper4177
Done all what?
He’s done it all sir, his way.
The question is what hasn't he done@@Mr.Martin4500
In the 90s I watched him race at Lakeview Motor Speedway and win the hava Tampa 100 and he was toting the left front wheel all the way around that track and it was the fastest I've ever seen anybody at Lakeview to this day
Probably racing against Mark Miner back then!
And he never got paid for winning that race
Guy said hold my window net, I got a race to win
RIP Scott. You're the man.
That’s the definition of “Hunting that Front” thank you Scott! You will be greatly missed man! Your dreams will never die! Love you buddy!
RIP to the Legend Scott Bloomquist! 😭😭😭
The window net was the distraction for those F1 shocks he had on. Great times
I kept hearing that he had strips of Lexan woven through the netting. Not sure why other than maybe the slightest advantage of aero.
Or like you said......a distraction
@@alimcg376I mean you can clearly see when they take it off that it’s not *just* a window net. There’s definitely plastic of some sort with it.
Living legend, the Goat!
What a great guy. He's well spoken , intelligent ,and a great driver. I think I am a new fan of Scott's.
Welcome to the club. We love Scott.
Best race I’ve ever seen in my life
Me too....what a great driver....❤
All the way to the back and he still came back and won the race.
Scott your the Man!!!!!
My Favorite Racers in all Motor Sports are the Guys who build and race their own cars.
It was awesome hearing him mention Atomic, I watched him and Purvis,and Ronnie Johnson run there many times when I was a kid.... I miss the ol track😞
You and me both!
Same here I think it's a trucking Depot now I miss scenic and big South fork raceway too
Man I miss Atomic!! My home track!! Best high banked 1/3 mile ever!!
@@RandyDuffey You never seen Manzanita Speedway in Phoenix. So how could you say this...........
I am but I've known about Scott for a long time. He is a man. RIP you well be missed.
say what you want about him being this and that, the man is the smartest person when it comes to dirt late models. now we get to see him take a shot again at the biggest mod race this year.
Exactly 💯

Hes the GOAT. But hes grooming one in that other o car that will be lethal behind the wheel
@@kylehellams8558 I keep wondering when he is gonna retire, I figured within the next 5 years if not sooner!! And yes he has been looking fast, him and bloomer ran side by side with him ending up ahead at the checkered a few times last year. Glad to see #44 back in a Bloomquist chassy
@Johnathon Wood cannot confirm but rumor has it that Madden will take over for the GOAT soon
@@kylehellams8558 its looking that way... I'll be sad to see Bloomquist give it up but at least he has decided to place another good driver in his chassis and still gives me somebody to route for on the Bloomquist team
The question I have could Dale Sr done this feat if he was still around ?
the best of all time
Well he's a couple hundred features behind the GOAT.
If my father sent me to racing school, i could do the same. And paid for for $100,000 frames and the same amount for engines.
Cody Livesay so you’re saying, if you had someone footing the bill, you would be the best of all time? Highly doubt it.
Keith Clark What I’m trying to say is, no matter the equipment you have, it still takes unbelievable talent to be a good driver. Especially at all the tracks, because as you know they’re all different and bring out different driver’s strong suits and weaknesses.
Billy moyer will always be better
Absolute Domination by the American Badass! Rest In Peace #0 Scott Bloomquist Legend and Father.
Ive yet to see such a dominate race car in my life. He is the best hands down
Chaz Buchinsky that Rocket #1 is surely in contention for that. 24 wins in 55 races this year. 50 top 5’s and 2 crown jewel wins
I've been watching bloomer for 30 years,he's always been great,I would have loved to seen him in NASCAR,I bet a few championship years would have been different.
You are the man, the legend. Awesome job.
So Happy to say I got to see him race here at Knoxville Raceway and a few other tracks! What a Racer!
I am not a Bloomquist fan but I appreciate what he has done and he deserves a lot of respect. I agree with previous post.

If you think about it Scott Bloomer won the World 100 every 13 years
I'm here cause I love Bloomer!.
there will never be a driver as good. these new cars drive themselves.
Sad to see this man go, RIP
Use to watch him in the Hapatampa series when it would come to Lake View SC
Smart thinking with the window net for drag & a bit of side force coming out of the corners & to give everyone something to talk about & take the heat off of what is illegal in the car lol
This is the most awesome video

14:06 IT'S GREEN IT'S OFFICAL Scott Bloomquist has won the 44th world 100 late model race
hes a natural and a damn good driver gotta give him credit
One of the greats.
The part they pulled was an aero-window net.....not that it played a part in the performance.
If anything it made him angry and that upped his performance.
It was an aero advantage if you noticed the clear plastic on the inside of the net, effectively making it solid so air cant pass thru
Look, this is all i have 😢miss you bud stay safe my brother 😢
Scott was his own he did his own thing an is the best in a race car an we will miss him just like we miss dale rest in peace my friend you were loved an will be missed Scott
Legend!
best race car driver in the history of racing
nope that would be steve kinser
have to agree. even being a bloomquist fan. steve also won an IROC race @ talladega. thats just bad ass.
mustang 2017 nah
He's not the best srry
hawk z it’s impossible rank drivers in racing, there is so much luck involved. But you definitely can’t say Scott isn’t one of the best🤔
I remember going to my first Lucas Oil Super Late Model race at I-55 and remember there was an equal amount of of love and hate for Bloomquist back then (early to mid 2000s can't remember the exact year).

Bloomer best ever
Race In Peace to The Goat! Scott Bloomquist 😢
I was there it was unbelievable 👍
When he left the shop, the rest shouldn’t have loaded up
Yes that particular window net would be considered illegal as it does enhance performance with the plastic.
But that car was just hooked up the whole night and he could just put it anywhere and make speed.
Love him or hate him, he just flat out out drove the field.
Ahhh the window bet night. I was there. Never forget it!
Saw him race in Lancaster South Carolina half mile and he tore it up rip sir
When you're the top dog you can afford it.
UMP is an insurance company that knows nothing about dirt track racing.
That thing was hooked up
Three wheels or four he still wins
I can’t believe he’s gone. 😢
Great driver and innovator
IT WAS PURPOSE BUILT. Made for each other Earl / Scott
He Had That Thing Diggin ...He Pulled a Darth Vader the Intimidator Race That Night...Tookem to School...Fellow TENNESSEE BOY THERE 👍🏁🏁🏁
Rest in peace G.O.A.T . May you fly high.
Who is the guy that didn't know about the brown liquor in Victory Lane? He got a mouth full... LMAO!!!!!
Ole Smoky I've watched this a few times I'm down the road from mike's shop he good but nothing like Scott
We did see the fastest race car in the world!
So dam sad he was one of my best heroes an not ever forgotten the best man that was hard to beat an will be missed so bad😢
RIP to the Legend. 😢
Bloomquist is the man bo
Hey Cuz you showed Them what Happens when you put a viking/swede/ and Irish bloodline to test i never ever seen this happen before for being to safe, your the best !!!
Everytime I watch this I can’t help but notice the guy in victory lane behind bloomquist chugging whiskey he can’t swallow.
Dudes A bad ass
R.i.p.
Reminds me of Doug Wolgang at Knoxville......
Rest in peace 🙏🕊️
Dirt track racing is the best.
You got to love him.
Man….. RIP😢😢
You know the old saying ? " You ain't catching no crackhead, bahahahaha
Coke not crack he does the good stuff

Rest in piece man
Car is a car and it makes a difference. But a driver overcomes a car
Rest in peace sir
