She passed him on the restart to take the transfer with only a couple of laps to go, rather than trying to go around her knowing how much she has to check up to stay on the bottom he comes from 3-lenghts back and purposefully drives through her with the gas on. Officials also see it this way and DQ him for the rest of the weekend (rightfully). So the real question is this, what is the appropriate punishment for Riggins if that is what the officials saw? I can tell you I wouldn't want to race with this guy on my home track, or for that matter any of my family members to have to race him on any other tracks. He is lucky that was a 90lb girl and not a 410 race in PA, they never would have got out of the parking lot.
