Just to let you know, my father, Rich Dambacher asked me to post this....so here goes:
What happened Friday night at Belle-Clair Speedway Friday night 4-26-13 during the Late Model Feature should have NEVER happened for ALL parties involved. Mark Voigt came into Turn #3 & 4 a little hard and made contact with Frankie Martin and spun him out. Frankie Martin made a 360 and NEVER made contact with another car in back of him and continued forward with the race. I'm NOT saying that Mark Voigt took Frankie Martin purposely out, but he did make contact with Frankie Martin causing him to spin out. The Official in Turn #4 must have had his head where the sun don't shine, or he only sees what he wants to see. I have NEVER seen a Yellow Flag come out sooo fast at Belle-Clair Speedway in all my times in attendance at Belle-Clair Speedway. Most of the time, the yellow flag does NOT come out until 1/2 or 3/4 of a lap has gone by and all of the cars are upon the cars involved in the yellow. 99.9% of the time the car that spins the other car out goes to the back of the field and the other "innocent car" gets his/her spot back.....unless both cars have been banging and rubbing on each other, then they both deserve to go to the back.
Most of the drivers in all of the classes that come to the Speedway are average "Joe's." They put a lot of time, money, effort, and their heart and souls into their cars to come to the track and put on a good show for all of the fans. These drivers can NOT afford to have these BAD calls made taking points and money away from them. These kind of judgements made by the Officials are gonna have to stop, otherwise there will be NO cars in the pits and NO fans in the stands to SUPPORT the track at Belle-Clair Speedway.

Rich Dambacher has been coming to the racetrack since he was a young boy in the 1950's and if YOU want this racetrack to survive, you better shape up and make unbiased and consistent race calls.
