Just seen Garrett Smith suspended 90 days from Hunt The Front

Scott Smith entries are suspended indefinitely from HTF events.

Scott Smith also fined $3,000 and must be paid before reinstatement which won't be considered for at least a year.

Since Hunt The Front is DIRTcar sanctioned penalties extend to all DIRTcar, World Racing Group, & World Of Outlaws Case Late Model Series events.

Did anyone else see the official “alcohol ban” the series is putting on the teams competing……I get the obvious, but it’s highly unlikely that’s real enforceable in the haulers.

on DOD it says,during qualifying scot smith entered another teams pit area and confronted one of the crew members.smith was warned by officials that further aggressive actions by him or anyone on the team would result in punitive actions. during a caution scot smith verbally assaulted and physicall struk a HTF official before being restrained . he also attempted to tear down the tours victory lane banner.

To be fair, for all of Terbo’s antics, he works his ass off on the car. I’m not sure it’s the same way at GSR.

From the DOD article and press release from HTF: I have read nothing that shows the driver (Garrett) did anything wrong?
Maybe HTF ( Joiner) just dose not want to have to compete against him?
Another maybe: is the HTF gang “really” the good ole boys everyone has thought they were?
I don’t know- some extreme consequences for the driver. He doesn’t have many racing choices left except for Lucas Oil, Ray Cook’s Southern Nationals or local non sanctioned races.
I guess time will tell us about the real HTF: good or bad. Honestly, the race fans have put them where they are by subscribing to their u-tube channel. I could be mistaken which would definitely not be the first time. Don’t get me wrong: there had to be rules and enforcement of said rules in any sport- but some of this situation is a little questionable. ( not the part with the team owner/dad assaulting officials)

I watched the HTF guys in the beginning and unless they have gotten better, they seemed to be clueless what to do to a racecar. Maintenace and other things.
I remember there were videos on overheating on the old victory circle car, they had no shroud, a POS fan and I think a POS radiator. geez I quit watching after that, but my mom subscribed to them and kept me in the loop of the fu(kery.

Now I saw they have won some races and made some shows, got better cars etc. But at the height of their success, they were always on the phone with Marshall @ Capitol.

Kudos to them though on building a good fanbase of YT. Seems like good family folks. Looks like they are making a good living off that, plus one of the wives is an attorney so that is a plus.

You guys are correct: drivers are responsible for team members- even though they may just be a hired gun to drive and not the owner.

Who owns the team ? Garrett ? I get what your saying about who is responsible for the team at the racetrack but I would think that roll falls more on the crew chief than the driver.

Garrett's team is family owned. Terminal Maintenance Construction (TMC) that you see on his cars was founded by his Grand dad and that is were the bulk of the money come from at least at the start.

Alcohol and short tempers never mix well, especially at a race track.

He works out of town a lot I know, and doesn't get on here when he is working. He is one of the few dudes on here that actually knows what the hell he is talking about.

Tupperware is once again selling rolling pins by the truckloads to the dirt racing teams like they once did to football fans!
