So is this a call for rough drivin or because im not in the "click"? So clearly i did not touch the 6 car in the street stock feature but get called for rough drivin and spinning him. I have ran at 5 different tracks this year and not once been called or penalized this year for rough drivin besides highland speedway. I have ran there bout 8 times this year and had them take a feature away opening nite,been warned for rough drivin many nites there,now this call. Just wondering if anyone else seen the call from last nite?
 
Tony you never drove dirty from what I've seen. Not knocking the track just saying it is odd they would come down on you.
 
seen this track make many "wrong calls" this year and seasons past you gotta be a hometowner to be a winner at highland speedway
 
Tony, I was there and seen it very clearly... Only because I was specifically watching the #6 car at that moment.. Didn't look like you touched him. But at the same time you were very close and its hard for the officials to see everything with certainty. They thought you spun him and sent you both to the rear. I don't think it had anything to do with any "click". I was also there to see them put you back a spot and take your win away. I believe that if the shoe was on the other foot, you would have agreed with that call. I've lost many races because I was knocked out of the way on the last turn and couldn't believe the track allowed it. I was rooting for you to win that race, but agreed with the call.
In ten seasons I have also been black flagged and chewed out for rough driving at Highland. I like that you expressed your feelings with the crew in a rational and civil way. There's really no need for this post. Keep doing what your doing out there. I think your doing a great job!
 
i belive Jason Worley got screwed out of a feature there a couple of months ago leading on the white flag lap someone drove into his door and knocked him out of the way
 
Highland does whatever they can to give their local guys every advantage to win. Scott and crew stole a win from ya just like you said and if it was the other way around that night they wouldn't have made the rough driving call! I just watched a video of you and Aj Cline go hard at it lap after lap and you both ran a very clean race! Keep up the hard work buddy and give em hell at the big show next week!
 
Yes clearly highland is out to make every driver from out of town lose. It's a conspiracy and the whole town is in on it!
 
Tony, I would race door to door with you any day without having to worry about you!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
 
Thank u hustler. I believe we have done it b4 side by side many laps without contact. I miss runnin with you. Good ole days with good ole racin!!!!
 
Tony highland has always been known for this crap. BUT certain drivers there get by with it every week. Very badly ran track!!!!!
 
It's a shame for any track to play favorites. If it was ever proven that a track did actually do that I would never ever go back to that track under that promoter. I'm not say that's what Highland is doing I'm just saying in general. We all know tracks have their favorites and there is nothing wrong with that but, does not give them the right to treat them any different then any other driver that races at their track.
 
Tony I was there and u never touched him really bad call but thats y I go to watch instead of racing there id rather sit in the stands and watch there weekly demo derbies and drink cold beer but I did like watchin the push truck pushin ur car in gear with the key on still and almost driving itself off while u were arguing lmao go get em tony
 
im also a huge fan of the favortizm highland gives... shannon kuhn got 9th in the first heat, and other three heats only had 8 cars. thats last no matter how you look at it. but in the consi he got to start in front of me and the 10x, (and yes we both beat him in the first heat) when i asked scott kuhn about it he said they cant "criss cross because it would confuse the drivers!!!!" they diffently did both!! im confused, and the 10x started directly behind a car he beat. i tried to wave off the start and they kepted the lights off in turn 3 to start the race anyway. i dont blame shannon for taking the free spot, but highland does need to knock off the BS its getting real old.

Hey Jacober. The reason the start of that race was odd is because there were three cars that scratched the race. Two of these cars were toward the front of the outside row. We DO NOT criss cross, we pull straight forward. We always pull straight forward when there are scratches, as our rules state. This caused Shannon to start up two places, subsequently ahead of you. There was no favoritism in that start. I was the one up in the tower lining you up for that race. I'll see you tomorrow for championship night.
