Yes Hellothere, there is always going to be contact in racing, however, deliberate contact to take out another driver, or put him into the wall is what this is about. That's what I call "rough driving". I am not that stupid that I don't understand contact will happen. Someone deliberately pushing into a wall or spinning someone, which by the way usually ends up with someone else hitting them, and INJURIES, that's when the driver should be black flagged, that's what I saw on the track last night. That's when the black flag should have been shown. It's not just what I saw, it's what I hear from the drivers, they know contact will always happen, deliberate rough driving is what they have been told will not be tolerated, and if this is so, then the officials should do what they say they will do, black flag. It's not just this weekend we are talking about, it's other weekends too.

No this is not about just the last lap, I think the last lap was the final straw of fustration, and yes he did get blackflagged for that but really this is a much bigger problem then just that last lap. Drivers don't what it to come down to that, so frustated with the situation, they want good clean racing, not drivers taking out other drivers, because they don't know any other way to race to win. Contact is part of the game of racing, deliberate rough contact is not part of it. Give a push, a nudge, give a bump, but not deliberate slamming of another driver. It's not just in the pure stock. I honestly believe that one of these days someone, and I hope it never happens, someone is going to get killed, and don't say won't happen, because it could, and I am sure non of us what to see that. That kind of rough driving can not be tolerated, and when officials say they will black flag for it they should.

I saw a car go into the corner high,the car that was right on his bumper dove to the low side because the lane was now wide open. The car on the high side cut right down in front of the other car and put hinself sideways by cutting across the nose of the other car, the car that was on the low side was allowed by the other driver to collect his car up and continue on with his race. The driver that cut down on the other driver then turned right into the door of the car that let him away with the mistake he had made. The car that got hit climed the wall and almost went overthen got hit from behind from another driver that had nothing to do with it and finished his night at the track and the car was in very bad condition. The whole thing could not have been avoided but the black flag should have flown over this one. By the way this happened right in front of the turn two flagman, it could not have been missed! The caution flag flew but where was the black one???
