Just a racing accident. Ballou was all over the place the previous couple of laps

This seems to explain that...rough night for the Mad Man.

From facebook:
Robert Ballou Motorsports: Lost our breaks just before that - however, crash was not a result of anything we did.......

Looked like Windom was heading for the high side and Ballou was already there. Bad deal! He had a good run going! That car is junk! I feel bad for him and his team.

I never said it wasn't racing at all. I was simply cheering for Ballou after that crazy slide job to take the lead..

And you could tell it completely took Bloom and Hines by surprise, too. Was an aggressive and clean slider and they didn't even know what hit 'em. He drove a hell of a race and it's too bad he didn't get to finish. The other was pretty much just a racing deal. Chris just drifted up into Robert's path and clipped him. If he had hit that pit entrance or whatever that was, it could have ben a whole lot worse. Thankfully, he walked away.
