I am a huge BC and LJ fan.....and everyone has their own opinion about last nite....if drivers didn't block to a certain point then it would be a boring race.....them two went back and forth for a couple of laps which was good racin.....but there is no need to spin someone out on the last lap knowing he didn't have a chance to catch Darland....As far as throwin the steering wheel.....well everyone does stuff when they r MAD......and he shouldn't be judged for that.....you don't know what you would do until ur put in that situation!!! JMO!!!

yes there were two grooves but it doesnt work when BC tries to pass Levi both high and low, but Levi decided he could run both grooves.

I see. Why pass a guy on the outside when you can run through him?

JMO If Levi didnt drive like he was driving a bulldozer he might not get BUMPED.

This is not NASCAR! There are no rearview mirrors. Blocking is not really an option in sprint car racing. If BC would have got a good enough run on Levi, there really isn't a way to "block" without crashing. Last time I checked, it is the driver that is chasing's job to pass the car in front of him. Not the lead driver's job to only run one line and make it easy! Either have the talent to pass someone, or don't. Of course, just my opinion

Levi got what he deserved he did the same thing at Winchester last year to Jerry Coons Jr. and Dave Darland won that one to. Maybe he likes to see DD win!!!!!

pretty sure he didnt need a rear view mirror to know what BC was doing he threw it under levi more than once.. and i dont know if you have ever raced.. but it is very easy to "hear" someone close on your ass.. all i know is the steering wheel crap as to go..

this one is all about who you pull for. I do not pull for either. This is not F1, you want to pass, get up on the wheel and go around.
