In my opinion and from sitting in that same position more than once, You just can't take for granted that the black car is gonna lift. He is entitled to his part of the racetrack. If you can make the pass clean, ok. But this crap of the outside guy HAVING to lift to save his equipment is bullcrap. Someone has to spend alot of money as a result of an irresponsible pass. I grew up watching drivers that raced with respect. You race me clean, I race you clean. I could have taken out Jeff Gordon at the 1990 Hut Hundred on the last lap just like that. He didn't deserve to get taken out just for me to win. There was no way the white car was gonna make that corner without making the black car take evasive action. No respect for some one elses life.

NO PINE DOESN'T DAVE..

When this crash happened Friday night, the place went nuts booing the white 39 of Doug "The Hammer"<<true Esh...this happened on the white flag lap and Doug went on to win. I guess the passioniate Posse fans let Doug have it in victory lane. They say they booed Doug louder than when Schatz or Kinser wins...WOW...


Sorry Ruppy, for stealing your video. But I wanted an unbias opinion of the crash and I thought this was a good place to get that....

P.S...Luckily The driver of the 15 of Adam Wilt was A O K...

heres another angle...ill post it myself so's pine dont steal it
it shows how fast the 39 came across and the aftermath.
again, i think it was more of a "block" to try to get the 15 to check up.
i agree with streicher though.....respect is something that has slowly been fading away. perhaps if the person in question knew he was gonna get his azz kicked after a move like that, there would be less "moves like that"

ps....pine...this incident has been lighting up the WG board since late friday night and it doesnt appear to be going away soon....if it was about rahmer, it would be locked down, deleted and 345 people would be banned...*** over....

You never want to lift when you've got a good run on somebody. Looks like one of those things

IMO, just a racing deal, but the black car had time to brake to avoid it.

Maybe the black car thought Esh would race him clean. Thought wrong. That was an Earnhardt Sr. move by Esh. Tom

Racing deal. The reason most people here give it a fair shake is because and we didn't have a dog in the fight, unlike the WG folks.
