why?

I would imagine that it was due to LACK of respect. I don't always agree with what is posted, but I try very hard to see someone else's point of view. If I still don't get it, maybe we should just agree to disagree and leave it at that.

USAC website says Kasey Kahne has two midgets entered, and one is driven by Brady Bacon. The second car's driver is not mentioned.

They have some heavy hitters listed for the races there. I'm glad to see the open wheel guys have not forgot their roots.... well Jeff Gordon has.... but the others have not. I wonder what Smoke will jump into and run?

Wasn't you and you got every right to dissagree. Many times I am wrong. I said in my thread that JR. seemed to have no respect for anyone else but himself on the track. Whats wrong with that? I've heard many drivers mention that myself but Im judging from what I've seen from the ten races I seen him run. Only TWO of them were clean and he didn't take someone out.

Wasn't Kevin "TALKED TOO" somewhere around Sprintweek about his actions on the track? If so this was Final.

I was one of the ones FOR The Young Guns running with the big dogs. There have been many who've been respectfull and relativily clean. Broc Burton, Beauchamp, Windom and others that all mess up sometimes but the litteral RUNNING OVER people or punting them is UNCALLED FOR and should have something done about it. Anyone under 18 in USAC IMHO should be on Probation, After five races as secret ballot among competitors on the tour should be taken. If they feel a driver isn't in control and acting irrationally then they can give him/her a YAY or NAY.

Others are right as well, A fans view shouldn't make NO DESCISION, however they can point things out and have a opinion to which anyone can respectfully agree or dissagree.

Chuck, who says Rowdie Bush kinda took a lot of people out too and now IMHO he's one of the best RACERS in NASCAR. WHo knows what will happen?

People say things on message boards that they would never say in person. Maybe for fear of a broken jaw or whatever. We all need to try and be respectful to each other.

Ok... You ask why was the thread closed. The moderators here are free to make their own decisions whether a thread should or should not be moderated. Obviously one of them thought it had reached a point that it needed to be closed. I did not close the thread, however... I do support the moderator that did. It was the right decision.

After reading the thread... it is very obvious that the one thing race fans love is controversy.

Everyone feels the need to gripe about stupid BS stuff that really doesn't amount to a damn thing. To much dust... It's too wet... It costs to much... Tracks don't pay enough... That driver is a... That promoter is a... The water in the toilets is too cold... Tire rules suck... this list goes on and on... All I will say is... Enjoy the racing while you can... one day you may not be able too!!!
