Most of the events that night were videotaped and when I have time we will review them for rough driving but from the stands, I did not observe any rough driving. There are a few drivers who are still learning to control their cars and the track did get a little slick near the end of the night. As a testitimate to that fact, Tate spun out which is a rarity. The water truck was not lost that night but a storm system was observed on the weather channel and the decision was made to forgoe watering the track and then working it in order to get the complete show in for the fans.
Mr. Staab and his officiating team are doing a fantastic job and while they are very open to respectful criticism, I would love it for those who do notice the great things to point those out as well. No one is perfect and we're all growing together. This is supposed to be fun, not a vent your frustration arena.
I'm disappointed that you are choosing to sit out this race and hope you change your mind.
