This past weekend in Pennsylvania 4 or 5 cars were disqualified for the same infraction, 3 or 4 were Posse and 1 regular. I was at Joliet when Kyle was DQ’d. From the grandstand it was a bizarre and disappointing turn of events, on a marathon night at the track. You can only imagine how the PA fans felt about they’re guys getting the axe. I’m hoping some of our wingers on here have more info on the saga. First, what exactly is the rule, 2nd what is the intention of it, and 3 is it properly explained in the drivers meeting. I did see it has caused enough discontent that Tony himself has said it won’t happen again. A little too late for some, but at least he’s addressing the situation. Hopefully some of you know more
I seen on Twitter that Danny Dietrich was extremely pissed off about the situation. Also there where about 3 or 4 police in the pits at BAPS where the accidents occurred.
Below in the picture is Dannys Twitter post about it along with Lance Dewease
