Now the other 2 deals i see a bit differently. 51 flat out wrecked the 16 and took an innocent 27 with him. Should sit out a week.


Why you think anyone would flat out wreck someone in that spot. It was a mistake on everyones part. 2 two go, racing hard and stuff happens. It's not like the guy 3rd in points, running for another 3rd-5th place finish is just going to dump someone for the heck of it.

now, slapping at officials, pulling saftey workers out of the way to get to a driver....that deserves the season off.

Warren you have more access to the people involved then i do and if Tyler says it was a racin deal then so be it. He had a birds eye view of it all.But the reason i feel he flat out wrecked him is because he mad at him to begin with and his car was clearly moving up.Perhaps flat out wrecked is the wrong words but it was def over agresive driving which caused a big wreck. Given the 16 was bullying his way to begin with it just looks to me that 51 caused the wreck by sticking his right front into his left rear. You wanna sit Todd down as well thats fine as he is far from innocent himself. I will re-watch the footage incase i missed something. Hey i would love to be wrong but it really appears that he stuck it too him. Just my opionion of how i saw it.

My comments only reflect what i see, i'm not here to repeat others opinions and whatnot.

Two to go, cold night, restart. Somethings going to happen it's just who and when at that point. There is alot of contact there as expected.

The going up the track thing is what will always happen when the RF is turning and gets hit/hits something hard enough. It jerks the wheel straight and slows it down for just long enough and the racecar goes up the hill. It happens in alot of wrecks.

Nope this nap did not happen unlike the race in June when they had a 200 Lap green race. I talked to this nice old man that let me stand behind him on row 50. (just past the start line) I had to give him 5$ and a can of soda but it was worth it. I tell you it sucked standing for 3 hours but it was a fantastic race 100 laps to go.

Waterford CT, It took 3 and a half hours to drive to my hotel. 1 hour to the track. that's 4 trips to the track and back and one trip up and down home. That's 11 hours, the extra hour and 30 minutes was do to traffic. Trust me you want to get to the track before 9PM Sunday. Or your going to be waiting along time to just park your car at the track.

Oh yeah and Saturday was like bizzaro land. In June Newman won the Mods and Bush won the Nationwide. Now in September Newman won the Mod's and Bush won the Trucks. Only thing different was the less but entertaining ACT race. I'm so sick and tired of Sprint Cup drivers competing in the Nationwide and Trucks now they are taking over the Mod Tour. It's only a matter of time before we seen them at Stafford of Waterford winning in a SK every week. :lol:

I know the drivers say they like it but I wonder how much they like the spotlight off of them and how much the owners like the three biggest purses on the tour going outside the tour?
