Sean -

Tell John that if the officials screwed up the line up. he has a right to be upset... But he does not have the right to aim his moving race car at an official, he does not have the right to stop on the front straight and then show disrespect to the fans and delay ths show while he pitches his fit, or do any of the other things that John and his dad are alleged to have done.

Side? I don't think that John has a side here, unless it's the wrong side! You need to make sure that he understands that he needs to apologize to a bunch of folks, starting with the fans.....and he should not be surprised if his actions get him suspended, OR EVEN BANNED FOR LIFE.

But please. don't let John off the hook - if his explanantion and apology seem weak, tell him - and hold him accountable! He wrote this check with his actions, so he should be prepared to cash it -in full!
