    perhaps the testing process could and will be conducted differently so there can be no question if it were to happen again, but each competitor entered the event knowing how the process worked and by entering they agreed to the terms. I did not believe there would be any other outcome because I believe the tests were prolly double or triple checked to make sure of the results before they acted.

    There is one really smart car owner that keeps pushing WRG to test tires, that person is neck deep in racing and knows what is going on with the teams. It's funny tho, because some point the finger at him as being a cheater, when in fact he is one of the loudest voices against it and wants the testing done.

    I agree with you on many things. The thing is many competitors knew when and what tires were going to be tested. The question is why would they still cheat tires. Either they were clean or they thought the juice they were using was undetectable. I like to believe my certain drivers. After all I am a fan, just like you.

    You seem to be the only one so very passionate about this whole deal, and I think I've figured out why. No matter that happens with Eldora Tiregate, it's not going to change things for Willie Miliken. As soon as he admitted to Simple Green, he screwed himself.
    Has zero to do with Willie milliken........has everything to do with getting it right.
    Where is the move over flag when you need it?????

    I say no, these guys race for a living. Just like you mow lawns for a living. Maybe you have a fast mower and charge by the hour. IF they did cheat a tire they know they are under a microscope.

    I am a fan as well, in fact I am a big fan of Gregg Satterlee, and will continue to be. I think just about every driver out there is doing something that they know could result in a DQ if they were to be caught. A lot think whatever they do won't be caught (and they are probably right). It sucks that it happened, but I think it is a good thing for the sport that they are trying to keep these guys honest. I'm worried about what this says about WoO and LOLMDS? Are they teching? All of these guys have run with one series at least and both in most cases yet were not caught until they raced at a regular old UMP race? I would be surprised if WoO wanted this decision overturned, I'm sure tracks like Cedar Lake, Fairbury, etc. would much prefer big draw drivers like Sheppard, Bloomquist and Owens to be in attendance.

    Thanks,
    Jeff.

    There's still a final appeal to go with the director.

    The guy has come along way since the modified days, but I haven't forgotten how rough he drove us........so I respect Willie and how far he has come, but I'm far from an avid fan.

    So no Josh, it's not BS.......at all.

    I know one driver doesn't make or break a race, but it's going to be different not seeing Owens or Bloomer at Eldora for the worlds biggest dirt race.

    The top 3 made the entire race on unprepped tires so I would say the tire certainly isn't the issue here.

    Thanks,

    I will say again, this is not a democracy. This is one tire company protecting their lifeblood. What else would they say? Sam diggers and his mr Smithers persona.
