Scott Bloomquist A-Team

A-Team
Mooresburg, Tennessee's Scott Bloomquist wound up the season with the top spot on the A-Team national rankings. Bloomquist had the highest number of wins on the 2011 season, with his 17 victories in 60 races representing a 28% winning percentage, a number bettered only by Louisiana driver Ray Moore (36%), and Illinois' Shannon Babb (29%). His average finish of 5.30 was topped only by fellow Volunteer State veterans Jimmy Owens and Ronnie Johnson. Bloomquist was also the only driver to compete against an average of more than 51 entries per event. Following Bloomquist in that statistical component were Dale McDowell and John Blankenship, at 50 each. (Jeff Bylsma)

NALMS Suspends Remaining Season

In a statement released to the racing media Monday, Northern All All Stars Late Model Series (NALMS) owners Shawn Hall and Bob Mooney relased the following statement:

To all NALMS drivers and fans,

Northern Allstars Late Model Series regrets to inform all of our drivers and fans that as of today (May 14, 2012) we will suspend all series races for the remaining 2012 season. The primary reason for the decision to discontinue the series was mainly economics. Tracks, teams and fans are having a hard time these days with the cost of living in general. With the cost of fuel, parts, tires, tickets and lodging, many people just cannot afford to travel to our shows, so we feel it's best to stop for now and try to regroup for the 2013 season.

Our series needs to be able to have at least 18 to 20 shows to cover our cost of putting on these shows and our drivers point funds. With many tracks cutting back on their special events and other tracks just choosing not to have specials at all, it's has really cut our options for race tracks down to a very few unless you are willing to travel several hours away from the Central Illinois area, and that is not cost effective for the racing teams or fans.

In closing we would like to thank all of the drivers and fans whom have supported the series over the years and we hope to be able to come back with a bigger and better season for everyone in 2013.
