On other laps in the race, other cars hit each other. If you are going to say you can't touch, then you can't touch. Especially on a small track (because it looks tires can touch rather easy) rules need to be pretty defined and stick with them for everyone.

Hard to see a black flag offense, didn't seem blatant.

But for some reason last night they decide to do it without even giving Chase a warning. Chase should have been blacked flagged earlier in the year when he got into Josh Cunningham but was not. Chase and I both were right down there appoligizing that night and we even gave Josh one of our cars to race because we felt that bad. But last night we didn't come appoligize because it was just a racing deal both cars contributed to the out come. I still believe that it all has to do with me complaining to the owners about the track conditions earlier in the night is why it happened. He got so upset with my advice that he said he was going to give me the keys to the water truck so I could work the track the next race. When I was only trying to give them constructive critisizm so we don't chew four tires off in one night like we did the previous week.
We demolished 4 tires the week before also Kevin...we got a Right front, Brand new Left Rear, HT-2 Right rear and an brand new DT-3. That $700 worth! That can't happen too many times in a row..or we'll be running slicks or staying home!
