First executive order after I'm elected will be to outlaw all pit passes and entry fees and all race officials would be banned from driving 18 wheelers to the track, especially if there is a copy machine on board........

And will you have bailout funds for them, when every racetrack in America goes broke because you've eliminated essentially 35% of their revenue?

Well... the promoters at Anderson missed out on big bucks. If they would have thrown everybody fighting in a cage and charged everybody 50 bucks to watch, they would have made out like a bandit $$$$$$$$$$$$$. You gotta get creative in this economy...........

Not that calling a woman that word or hitting a woman is excusable under any circumstances, why on earth would you pick Allison McLeod?

She might be a midget driving a midget but I swear that girl could grind granite with her bare hands. I wouldn't even give 10 to 1 that the person accused could beat her in a fist fight.

Tate has a few races in the Regional Midget Series under his belt this season. The car (#7) is the result of a combined effort from Gregg Steele, Dwayne(sp) Alexander and Larry Martz.

Hopefully they'll get some luck sometime soon! Best of luck to them. :6:

I just had to call my Brownsburg source to get the story from a guy I knew had been there.
I would say that a certain father/son (WWE tag team wannabees) need to bend way over, put their hands way up beyond their knees, grasp their ears firmly, and yank their heads out of their a$$es.

VSneader2 9/1/09 11:11 AM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
Maybe this thread needs to be a few more pages long before we know what actually happened. So far from what has been posted, it seems a father and son started a fight with a little person who happens to race midgets. Am I at all close?

AP64 9/1/09 11:20 AM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
I was way off. I thought the son's midget friend strated the fight with the father. What a telephone game, he said she said.

How about two fathers fighting, a daughter tries to intervene, a son shows his manliness by punching the girl ?
Am I closer, farther, or as close as VSneader2 ?
Hell, I don't know -- I missed the WWE/USAC events at Anderson.
We may have to wait till next week to see the video on The Jerry Springer Show.

I'm supposed to add the Alison did defend herself and get a pretty good kick in and hit!

HOT227 9/1/09 2:39 PM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
Will someone just say what happened for those of us who were not there?

RcrSkyChk 9/1/09 2:43 PM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
its already been said by pat o conner fan

HOT227 9/1/09 2:48 PM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
So who was the classless people in the fight? We've already established that Alison was involved. Either way, I thought when the open wheel guys came into Anderson they were the classy bunch...sounds to me like this makes the ThunderCar and Figure 8 guys seem upscale!

If a pirate and a ninja got into a fight, who would win?? Just asking.

If somebody has it on video, please post it so we can judge for ourselves.

Sounds to me like there might be a lot more doors in racing closed to someone today than just one week ago.

Both drivers and teams suspended from the regional series for 14 races from what I am hearing...if that is true, this sends a strong message that this crap has no place in racing..go back to your pit, blow off some steam, etc before you start throwing punches..14 races would be pretty much all of the 2010 regional series schedule..Penalty seems to fit the crime.

I'm pretty sure this is incorrect....

indycar45 9/4/09 10:37 AM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
heard it from multiple sources so if incorrect, then there is some bad info floating around. Could be the team aspect is incorrect but have a feeling the driver suspensions are true..

Hmmm.. sell some tickets with this press:16 if they are stupid enough to suspend them 14 races, this series is flat doomed. Hell it can not even drawl a good car count.

psullivan 9/4/09 2:51 PM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
You have to suspend drivers in any like situation, but particularly in a situation where you have very young drivers present. Any descision made in such situations must be handled in accordance with what you think is right, regardless of the drivers or teams involved - hence the viability of the series is irrelevant to the matter at hand. It is not dumb - dumb officiating decisions occur when you fail to do the right thing because of your self interest.

indycar45 9/4/09 2:51 PM

Re: Anderson Midgets
 
767....so you are advocating fathers and their sons and daughters just getting into a flat out brawl in the pits AFTER the race because of a racing incident...with fans roaming around to see this.. and getting a slap on the wrist? I see. yep..that will sure bring the fans back Yes this series has struggled with car counts, as have all series this year, but if you let what went on in the pits go unpunished, then you are sending the message to all competitors that this is OK..and from what I saw on Sunday, they are all lucky the cops didn't haul the whole bunch of them off to jail. 14 races sounds fine to me.
