Maybe instead of the police being involved they should have called a social worker

I am glad you talked to Tommy about your idea of a multi day show. I have talked to him several times, and he has always been great. I actually like Tri State. Every track has good races and bad races. As I said before not every baseball game ends 3 to 2. I am sorry, I did not think it was a very good race. It happens. One thing I like about the USAC format is to start in that top six, you have to pass in your heat. I like passing. Did you just come out for one race? If so, you missed a real good race at Circle City. |

[QUOTE=CRA91;568624]If that little bop would have caused his helmet to be damaged he better buy a better helmet.What kind of damage do you think a 100mph rock does to a helmet and yet they last all season.[/QUOTE
Maybe if your head would have been in that helmet you would feel different. Not sure if you watched the replay? Have you ever read helmet manufactures instructions, ever personally been in a situation like that? |

I watched the replay several times he did not go to town on him at all. He could have hit him way way harder. I watched the heat race that the 2r was in and the b and he was really not on the camera at all so he was just running in the back trying to get seat time. It looked like in the heat he pulled in when the leader caught him. He was probably trying to do the same in the B when things went south. Whether he was a moving chicane or Gentry just misjudged things because of the speed difference we will never know. If all he got was a tap on the helmet and Gentry destroyed a car I think he came out ahead.

Nothing happened in the pits. The arrest was based on the 2 taps to the helmet after requesting police for a report. If he was hurt like he claims, then a good defense attorney would question why he finished the last 2 laps of the B. Stated he felt like he was gonna lose consciousness to the police, but still able to finish the race. He got hit harder with dirt while on the track!

I've had my fair amount of altercations though out 44 yrs of being involved in the sport,but then again I also started in the sport when someone could come over to you and smack you in the mouth and you just wrote it off as lesson learned and didn't file charges over it.

As for your question about Circle City, yes I was there. Surprised if you were as there were two push start divisions and another support class. Something you mentioned this summer that you stay away from. The surface was a typical Sargeant promotion. If you think Seavey winning from again the front row after giving up the lead for 6 laps to the driving Miss Daisy special, then blasting the lip for one turn is great, then again we disagree. I was impressed with how Bacon from 11th and even more Ballou from 14th figured out how to pass cars on that disgrace. You never did say where you sat at Haubstadt to miss all of the things happened out there. The cynic in me thinks you weren’t there and based your assessment on Flo only filming the leader. I could be wrong and that’s ok. I have been before. |
