While I don’t condone what Aric Gentry did, the other driver involved had made numerous, VERY questionable moves throughout the night. I get it…a new driver has to start somewhere, but he also has to have awareness of where he is on the track, and who is remaining to go around him. His decision to turn toward the infield in the middle of the backstretch, while maybe made with the best of intentions, cost Aric Gentry a race car. Again, I don’t condone Aric’s response, but I understand his anger and frustration.

Leary kicking Ballou was more violent than the Bop on the head Gentry gave. Ballou didn’t feel the need to file a report either. Not saying its acceptable, but sure as heck didn’t rise to the level of being arrested. Think Gentry’s nickname should be the Big Bopper

The surface was great, the racing was intense, and the stands were packed. Can’t ***** about farming, or the time zone since they ran it quick either. Well done Tri State Speedway!! I’ll pass along the answer I receive from them about the multi day show as I did inquire about it. Try a new seat next year if you missed all of that action where you were last nite. |

The incident involving Aric Gentry escalated in the pits. As a result Aric is on the news with his picture on the screen of tv stations in the Evansville market. Was also reported on WITZ FM radio in Jasper.
I’ve never seen race track fights reported on local tv before. Only one I remember was at Anderson Speedway when a stock car driver kicked the windshield out of another car and attacked the driver in front of the grandstand. That made the national news on the NBC nightly report. Sad to see this negative publicity for Aric. He has been racing well and having some success as indicated by his points position.

Add Carson Short lead pass to the above comments also. Impressive. Yes, Brady always steps his game up to the next level when Big Money is on the line. Car was hooked up. As far as the Gentry 'Boink', Did Holdens former and or current affiliations with local Law enforcement have anything to do with the swift actions taken by Gibson County Law enforcement? Asking for a friend....................
