Weir had a perfect opportunity to give payback last night and chose not to. He is a good definition of true Indiana sprint car racing.
If you really pay attention over the years, and cut through some of the theatrics, I would challenge you to find a cleaner racer than T-Mez. He will push guys to there limits, but if he puts anyone in a bad spot, it is more himself than his competitors.
Ballou, Cottle, Cockrum, Darland, T-Mez, Weir, Westfall, Cummins, Bilbee, Mattox, Shuman, Short….need more of them to keep the true grit of traditional sprint car racing….less of the holding soda cans, same old interviews, and BS personalities. I suppose times change.
I hope young men with the talent of Bibent and Rogers lean toward acting more like the above men, then some of the “stars of usac”, for the future of the product to the general public.
Racers will sort it out, but always fun to throw out an opinion.
Everyone that straps in to these things are a badass in my book, but alot less of them are the same badasses outside the cockpit.
