    So where was Moyer?

    So should he have just plowed through Bobby like some idiot, or get outta it, add to the points lead and take second. Shows you wether his tires are cheated or not it makes zero difference.
    Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

    All of these tire controversies simply fuel the publicity fire and help sell tickets... Ala "professional" wrestling. You guys that get all worked up about tire doping are simply being played by the guys who create the buzz or at least allow it to continue.

    I sold tires for years at my home track... Hoosier, McCreary, Marsh, Towel City and even Hurst. Some of my rubber compounds were as soft as 32 on the durometer and as hard as 60..... Guys won on both hard and soft compounds.

    And we made our own tire dope.

    I think set-up and on track tire management are more important than any secret sauce that someone comes up with. Saving the rr for lap 90 makes some sense... been done for 100 years.

    Pavement tracks here in WI now have tire rules where a driver can only mount two new tires per race... And they are sold only at the track... Keeps a guy from soaking his stuff at home. Seems to work ok. Maybe Lucas should head in that direction...

    I think that would be a great idea then it would end all the BS. It didn't make a difference last night same guys at the front. so, if everyone soaks their tire same guys at the front, if no one can soak their tires same guys at the front.

    No, this isn't referring to adultry, I'm referring to competition. Any book written by a racer, if he gets candid, will let you in on the chit they have done since the 60's or so on.

    I just don't get the high road, like y'all are saints who walk the straight and narrow. Open your eyes, and realize, competition and money, brings out the worst in people. They'll do whatever to win an get ahead. You can accept it, or be a hypocrite, and act like your driver would never do anything wrong(lol).

    Carry on with the b!tching, and hypocrisy.
    Excellent post. Nothing but the facts here.

    did`t think that much great a difference in 75 lap and 100 lap race so who is really cheating the lab a lot of cars have struggled this year and makes the one that wins look even better. and some keep great notes on what they did at every track engine setup chassis setup tires and other things but if gearing and ponies don`t match u in big trouble especially if u don`t have the ponies. Thursday and Saturday not a whole lot of difference.
