I would just like to say that I know Dickie felt extremely bad over the situation last Saturday and would like to clear up that no one from his team was laughing at other people's misfortunes by any means or had any intentions of trying to make a stink with a bunch of good people that will have to race together dozens of times in the future. Trying to apologize or give an explanation that evening would have just started trouble and dickie is not one to be rude to anyone. The end result was a horrible situation but many other circumstances could have led to that type of accident. He would never have made hard enough contact with anyone to send them flipping or blatently take them out, there was just a little contact and the field bottlenecked down the line and by the time mid pack got to the flagman the accordion effect happened. If someone is still truly upset and feels the need to retaliate that is a risk they will have to take but the result could end up the same with a lot of torn up stuff on there own car as well as others. not trying to make excuses just wanted to make clear there was no disrespect or gloating that a bunch of s__t got torn up and many people had a miserable night because that is not why we nor anyone else goes to the track to strive for.
