Way to go Rick in the 1S. Good Job last night. See you friday night. Overall good night of racing esp after they graded the track.
 
Before I give my 2 cents worth, I'll ask first: If you intentionally spin someone out causing a yellow, doesn't that driver typically get his spot back and the person causing the spin goes to the back? Or is that just at other tracks?

In the bomber feature, the black truck (95?) spun the #441 bomber. It was obvious he took him out. He got to keep his spot and the #441 went to the back. To me that was totally unfair. #441 had a great night, overcame problems in the heat and still ran strong until the incident with the truck put him to the back.

Great run Aaron! Everyone else any answers on the spin question would be great.
 
It was a fantastic night of racing!!! 105 cars showed up! Great racing between Rick Salter and Ed Dixon in the LM feature. Congratulations to both for 1st and 2nd place!!! :)
 
Normally, the car getting spun goes to back and the person who hits them gets black flag. Now, that is IF it was seen that way.

I recall another incident in the same race when the 53 spun in turn one. The 19 and 25, trying to avoid him (doing what they are told...not to drive thru a caution, spin,wreck, or whatever) got hooked. While they stopped, the 53 refired and got moving again. The caution should have been for the stopped car but was accessed to the two guys doing what they were supposed to do. I guess they could have just hit the 53 and they would have gotten their spots back...

well i agree with u dirt fan melton was running very good overcoming his heat and dash goin for a clean sweep....the radiatior and fan belt was the problem to let u know aaron is a very clean and good driver and gives them a run for their money hate to see him get spun out and then have to go to the back :mad:
 
So in otherwards Melton had the race more then likely but got the shaft he goes to the back makes no sense if it was obvious he had help spinning out!! Was it obvious or not? I cant see belleville putting aaron to the back if he had help getting there if so belleville is not gonna keep car counts up if they do this!!
 
Im the driver of the 53 pure stock. i admit i was sideways and almost lost it, but i never came to a complete stop, the motor never died. i slowed down to keep from losing it, which was my fault, and managed to save it. i appreciate brett going high to avoid me but, after what happened last week i believe he kinda owed me one.

I was just saying that the yellow doesn't always come out for what you would expect and it sometimes gets thrown for someone doing the right thing. It is amazing how the "IOU's" tend to work. (usually without even trying) LOL

The 1w Had Problems In The Heat. He Was Going To Have To Start Dead Last In The Semi. Chances Weren't Good So He Just Decide To Watch. I Don't Blame Him.
 
as far as the iou's go you are right on the money. i watched video of last years races all season long and for every time i thought i got the short end of the stick, i unknowningly got away with something.
 
THE BRAKE YOU GIVE, MAY BE THE BRAKE YOU GET. THE BRAKE YOU DON'T GET, WILL BE THE BRAKE YOU DON'T GIVE. THATS THE "BREAKS". :D REMEMBER, WHAT GOES AROUND COMES AROUND. DON'T KNOW ABOUT YA'LL, BUT MAKES SENSE TO ME. :D :confused: :D :confused: :D :confused: :D
 
Way to go Rick!!!! Glad to see you run with Eddie!!! Wish i could of been there!! Ill be back and intact this weekend and ready to see ya win!!!

The 95 truck driven by Randy Dietzel as i saw wasnt the fault of the crash just someone who was involved..racing just wouldnt be racing if cars didnt occasionally touch..If it were so obvious then maybe the official would have seen it!
 
I guarantee it was obvious had the official been looking he would have seen it, too. I was in the pits and saw it for myself.
