Adam Ross 250 Report post Posted April 21, 2012 Was that Gasket's voice you could hear screaming in the background towards the end? Tough to compete with Malta when they even have a videographer for their pit fights, Jake. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NiagaraRaceFan 692 Report post Posted April 21, 2012 I dont blame them for being mad... the second place car clearly tried to spin the leader. Usually though things dont tend get out of hand unless the dirty move actually worked. This nastiness might have been avoided by simply lodging a complaint for rough driving. great job of getting the video of both the on track incident and the fallout in the pits!

[/quote] You gotta be kidding me! I don't think Yetman was gonna take him out, he was trying to get the inside position by rubbing him up a bit, and going for the win. He woulda wreck him easy if he wanted to. These cars have fenders for a reason, and some have bumpers for a reason. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Did Yetman even have a lot of damage? All he had was a flat. Contact is racing, whether it be a little or a lot, its racing. I mean if you go bunzi into a guy like Elmo thursday night, i'd say ok, but this nah. Go hard racin. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NiagaraRaceFan 692 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 damage is not necessary to judge intention... for example, I've seen lots of times when the guy on the inside just forgets to turn left at turn 1 and runs the outside guy off the end. Neither has any damage to speak of but it's still dirty driving. In any case here the #7 was on the receiving end of his own bad karma and rightfully so.

GasketCase 1,919 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 21 say what you think without being offensive and you'll be ok. With that said .... Are you nuts? Rob is my friend. He's been to my house. And I want to kick him in the ass for this one. Maybe he would've got Langevin. Maybe not. In the big picture, 2nd place is more important toward the track championship than winning a single race. he knows this. he let competitiveness cloud his judgement. And also ... Langevin ran an impeccable race. he's a great driver and he was wise to not retaliate, but just hold his ground. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Adam Ross 250 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 I see nothing wrong with some rubbin in the pro stock class. And debating moves on the race track is what makes racing forums so much fun.

[/quote] Does anyone out there see that it does not matter what happened on the track, that is something the track officials deal with. This was a attempt to assult a driver while straped into his car. This video and some eye witnesses would be enough evidence for harrasement and assult charges to be brought against this individual. Also a restraining order could be granted very easily. The track should revoke the prevledge of this car owner from having a pit pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Wee One 948 Report post Posted April 22, 2012 That wasnt a fight. A fight was last year at CMP in the pure stocks haha seeing a security guard take a guy down with a tackle harder than anything the Bills could muster...now THAT was a fight! This was a minor scrap. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
