I agree with you to some extend Thunder 6, but there were other things going on at tech as well. I saw one drivers father at the door of tech lanes, screaming, throwing his arms around and trying to start a fight with another team, this was at the door of the tech shed with the official's right there and nothing was done. I saw the wife of the TC 44 driver step in and put a stop to it. Is this not something that the track should deal with especially when it isn't even the driver but his drunken father.
What doesn't make any sense to me is that while standing at tech watching i watched the girls 63x & 64x with baby crumbie 63 and Brian Penny 16 try to pull enough money together to tear down Glaze (who was in a car that wasn't even his) when he is in 6 or 7 in points and doesn't have a hope of winning an championship this year. They had Penny being a spokesman for them - god that is funny itself. What is wrong with that picture aren't they all (other then penny) contenders for the championship. As far as i can see they are only doing this cause they all just a bunch of sore losers, they can't handle it when anyone gives them any real competition. I will say that the car that Glaze ran was on rails that thing was pulling hard, but i know that those guys all do their homework and do a tonne of work to their cars day in and day out. They are all competitive and all doing really well in the points. That is the worse example i have ever seen of sportsmanship when you want to tear down a car that is borrowed after another driver has already put it into the wall on the same night. If you want to tear him down wait until he at least has his own car, it is one thing to wreck your car but someone is nice enough to lend you their car and someone trys to tear it apart (hopefully they will remember that when they wreck and nobody will lend them anything because they have no respect)..................come on grow up.
Slaughter needs to remove his princess crown now and pass it over to baby cumbie and penny - let Glaze decide who gets to wear it. Better bring them lots of cheese for the drivers meeting since i heard them say they are going to protest his second place finish in the race. Wahhhhhhh
In my opinion the track has dealt with issues very well this year. They can only be proactive with certain issues, and they have to be reactive with others. Perhaps they have not seen the WHOLE picture in this incident, so they can only make decisions when they know the details... and only if drivers bring it to their attention of course. If they have the details, all of the facts, I'm sure they would attempt to do the right thing. I saw a bunch of different people SCREAMING at the tech personnel on Saturday night. I wasn't involved with that deal, so I can't really comment on the details of what occured there either, but what causes someone to start shouting at Speedway Staff? How are you going to get what you want from someone by intimidation and generally offensive behavior?
I agree Kevin, intimidation is not right. However, if soemone is at their witts end and doesnt know how else to approach things than that is what happens...i think in this instance the pin fell out for the guy and he was jsut fed up!
Well I have to put my two cents in '''The track is doing a GREAT JOB OF SOME OF THE ISSUES!!,,But''I think what Yorkie is trying to get at is ''AT the drivers MEETINGS''If the Offical says to the Drivers ''OK guys No Rough driving out there ''Or I will BLACK FLAG anyone who does''',,and don't do any thing about it ,This is were the racers gets Frustrated'and nothing gets Done,So my Opinion is Do what they Say Not as I do'',,People are Getting hurt out there!! and I hate to see what kind of INS..policy the track has and pay for and I hate to see the track be liable for any Screw ups,,and Further more I have seen the officals my self turn the other cheak When something happens The track has the most up to date Computer technoligy at the track and there is no reason for this to happen other than a videographer out there in center field,,I saw how the track promoter has ran around like a humming bird on crack out there he has a two way system on him but can't be at a thousand places at once!!!...

quote from sway bar.
i was standing there when this was going down, this has more to do with past beefs than tearing nicks car down. penny was not being spokesman for them he was running his mouth when he should not have. and if he borrowed the car
why was it on his trailer being towed by his jeep. and why did he pull out to the parking lot after the money was put up just my 2 cents worth on this subject the only ones who can answer theese questions are the partys involed not us who dont have all the facts
With all do Respect ''Charger What does the tech Thing have to do with Rough drivng Black Flaging''You sure your on the right thread All do Respect''!!..
