As for ideas Thayne maybe the track should watch the new drivers a little more closely and if they see something that an inexperienced driver is doing then they should have a talk with them. As well as us being drivers I think it is our duty to give advice to those in experienced drivers so that situations like this do not occur. As for the aggression I think the flag man needs that black flag out when rough driving causes an incident. But the flag has been used more this year then in the past so it's hard to say what can be done other then giving advice

not sure. I personally think that he is a one footer with the gas and brakes and this could cause an issue. I think maybe instead of hitting the brakes he hit the clutch and by then it was too late. Don't think the throttle was an issue of why the accident began. The 99 and Joe were battling banging off each other and they both just lost control. but Joe should have been in the clear had he hit the brakes in time...that's why I think he pushed the clutch instead

The accidents have been very very huge accidents. In every one that has happened at least one of the cars are written off, or pretty close to it. Steeve has to do major work to his original car, Sikes is a write off and Joe's is a write off. The cars aren't going as slow as people think and when they hit, it's hard. As for the reason being lack of experience or the cars not being put together same enough, I don't think it's that the cars aren't put together well enough, I just think it is the way the accident it happening. Steeve's was an uncalled for unexpected accident, he couldn't avoid it. Dave's was idiocy on another drivers part (same one that helped the accident for Steeve) and Joe's, not sure about that one. His car took a good lick, could have been worse off. He worked his butt off on that car, it passed inspection. If it passed inspection, then it should be safe enough and these things shouldn't be happening right? So if your looking for suggestions, how about going to the tech guys and talking to them about the safe cars they are letting out on the track? I know they are there to make sure to the best of their ability that everyone will be fine, but they can't predict what kind of hits people are going to encounter... It's a hard call either way

And to elaborate on the tech guys not being able to predict, I mean with the accident with Sikes, it was the spot it hit, the angle, etc... So stuff like that. The facts right down to the nitty gritty
