Transponders, were NOT in use at this race. I'll repeat, NO transponders, neither car had a transponder. Jacksonville dropped the ball and gave a win to a bigger name.

This will be the post where I learn my lesson about posting while my blood is boiling...
But KJHolley.... try to speak of things of which you at least know the slightest bit about. If you think that during the few seconds that it took our MOWA scorers and flagman to determine who won the race, the thought of who was driving which car even entered their mind... then you really don't 'get' this sport.
I can assure you that Jake, Pam or Randy don't give two craps about who won the car race. It's their job to score and flag the race and determine the winner. There is no way... NO WAY that these folks who have spent hundreds, if not thousands of hours both at and away from the track to help build MOWA into respectable racing series would piss all of that work and effort and hard-earned reputation away to declare Bryan Clauson the winner over Chris Bell just because Bryan in your eyes has the bigger name of the two.
With all due respect to Bryan, if he is a bigger name than Chris Bell at this moment in time - especially in the winged sprint car world, it's not by much. Chis Bell can win in anything with 4 wheels and is one heck of a young man. As I congratulated Chris after the race, I could see the disappointment in his eyes. It was obvious. He thought he won. He had every right to think he might have won. And he handled himself with the same class and professionalism as he has every single time I've had occasion to meet the young man.
Congrats to to two of the best sprint car drivers in the world right now on an incredible finish.
