Cole is usually not at putnamville anymore so he may have done it intentionally to be cute about it or maybe not I don't know. Krockenberger #21K is there each week so thats most likely why he was sent home for slinging mud at DA or whoever I don't know who it was or what because I was out there too and didn't see it plus he rarley does not help packing much to keep his car clean and I don't blame him for that reason I hate coming in covered in mud too, but I would rather make the track packed in well so thats just part of it.
So you know why 21k was sent out and Cole just got lucky and didn't have to pack up too, I don't agree with cole getting mud thrown back at him but in a way I do just depends how bad he hit the flag man just remember this there is still some rocks mixed in with the clay too and just in the race when someone gives you a slide job and your left arm,shoulder gets hit with all that mud its like getting shot with a paint ball machine gun so just think what its like standing there without a suit and helmet on.
#3. I was in that heat race 3 and I believe I did end up running over the cone it caught me off guard just happy it didn't hurt anything.
So far this year they have made a change for the better the track has been better all year than the last two years. Also the hole that is always in turn 1 was gone this week so I was happy.
So Scott thanks for coming out as well as all of the rest of the race fans who attend.
