I am with 16J on this one when it comes to retirement. Robert has been fast and winning some races this year, Robert has also hurt some feelings. But imo Robert is along way from hanging up the helmet. As long as he has the desire and finances to keep rippin it he will continue to entertain or piss off us race fans. I have stated before i pull for TMez but Robert is exciting to watch as well. Dude is a gasser.

So in a shortened version...Indiana Sprint Week 2022, first night at Gas City...during the Feature...Ballou and Bacon got into each other going into turn 3...Bacon flipped hard...Bacon eventually walked clear across the track over to turn 1 and said some words to Robert and the crowd went wild. Short time later, Ballou and Leary got into each other coming out of turn 4 onto the front stretch...Leary flipped hard...eventually got out, ran across the track over to turn 3 and drop kicked Ballou, fell on his ass, kicked him again...crowd went wild...later in the week, I cant remember which race but I believe Lincoln Park, in Bacon's post race interview he called Ballou the Ballou Dozer...now its turned into tshirt ideas that I believe both will sell the hell out of and to boot Bacon is doing something very special and kool in helping kids by donating $5 of each of that specific tshirt to Riley Foundation. Im not taking sides on who wrecked who, who's fault was what, who did or didnt do what on purpose. I have my thoughts and opinions, just like you do, and just like each person on here and not on here does. All my response here is saying is facts that happened.

Don't forget Ballou calling Brady "the Nacho Man".

I just saw on twitter they got into it.







I think USAC need to keep a file of these Butthurt Reports on hand for folks to fill out.
