I will start by saying I am a HUGE JG, Justin Grant fan. However, I know not everyone is. I'm looking for an answer or opinion here, not whether you like JG or not. So if you could, please put that aside whether you like him or not.

Tonight at Grandview, JG rolls out for qualifying and action stops. As the camera zooms in Chet makes the comment about how his right rear is flat and rim bent/busted. For me the camera angle isn't the best on top of that the camera was on Bacon qualifying...as USAC pushes JG through the infield and back to the pits to change tire and rim, it appears something happens with the push truck driver as he makes hand gestures of some sort.

So...if the push truck driver is at fault, lined up on JG wrong and/or somehow pushed JG into the wall trashing his tire and rim, how does this work? Tire and rim is what, $500-$1000? Does the track pay for JG's tire and rim since they hired the push truck driver or USAC pays it or JG and TOPP just eats it or what?
