Okay Nascar is not fixed right. It's not like they give preference to any certain Drivers right. Its not like allowing a rule change just because of a Driver, right. It's not like Jeff Gordon ever gets called for ruff driving, its always the other guy, and if the 24 car is going to go a lap down the yellow comes out because of debris on the track...you saw the debris right.Although it's always been South of the Border, the plague of NASCAR's preference calling has spread to a virus up here in Canada, and it's starting to become as obvious as down South.Recently NASCAR made a call or two that are in huge question, and all about one car, which has not sat well with the other racers. When Ranger went to qualify at the last road course race he went onto the track for his run and the car quit. The car was pushed back to the pits and onto pit road for repairs, and then was allowed back out to run his qualifying laps. The Rule states, by NASCAR, once you leave the pits during the qualifying run you are timed until you re-enter the pits, ending your qualifying session. There is NO SECOND CHANCE !!!If you return to the pits, even after one lap, you will be scored on that lap and your day is done.Not Ranger... NASCAR says let him go out again.. and he puts it on the front row and starts from there.The end of Trois Riviers with Mixy and Ranger battling to the line, and if you haven't seen the replays watch them, after the finish line Ranger turns a hard left and over the hood of Micks, destroying both cars and almost causing a huge wreck behind them as everyone is still racing to the finish. Then the Water Bottle incident where Ranger throws a water bottle at Mixy while he is being interviewed after the race, now that was a class act !!Mr. Buck of NASCAR did not want to answer questions in the Drivers meeting regarding the qualifying issue's regarding the Ranger run, and I am sure there will be no talk of the Crashing on Micks at the end of the race either or the water bottle issue.Lets change the Driver and keep Micks in the deal. Lets say instead of Ranger it was Jimmy in the 25.Here is what would have happened...Qualifying run- cancelled Jimmy.. start from the rear !Race finish with the crash after the finish line-Jimmy we will score you at the end of the longest line.Water Bottle deal- Jimmy that will be 100 points and a $500.00 fine.Justice can only be called when you deal everyone a card from the same deck, and keep the Jokers for yourself. If NASCAR decides these are the new rules then everyone needs to get on board and start crashing eachother for at least 5 laps after the race is over, start qualifying with the number 27 on every door, and get a huge water sponsor to supply water bottles for the throwing competition after the race.Maybey NASCAR could purchase one of those dunking machines you see at the Fairs and instead of throwing baseballs the drivers could throw there Toonies from there race winnings.Either keep it straight or start a debate- Racing under two sets of rules is Saturday Night Fun and this series costs way to much money for teams to show up at a disadvantage. What ever money Micks made at Trois Riveries was taken away and more in repairs to a perfectly good race car 1 foot after the finish line.I like Ranger- great Driver, and I like his car owner Jacombs- great guy, but come on guys, if the shoe was on the other foot I am sure there would have been repercussions.

Remembering what happened at Mosport and Montreal last season, seeing people whining about Micks getting screwed is downright hilarious....
