The most disappointing part of the night was watching grown a** adults screaming at Ballou from the stands. After the first red with Bacon, Ballou’s car stopped on the front stretch. Guys went down to the fence to SCREAM at him, flip him off, etc. Grown a** men. I’d love to see any of them threaten to kick Ballou’s a** when not behind a fence and when Ballou isn’t strapped in a car.
Don’t get me wrong, there were certainly shenanigans last night but the behavior of Leary and the fans do NOT give our sport a good name. I hear people make fun of NASCAR for the same behavior.
We were surprised that USAC allowed Bacon and Leary to approach Ballou. Yes it was pretty clear watching from the stands that Bacon was in control, but Leary clearly was not. Punk move to drop kick someone still strapped in their car.
