[Ben Shelton]

Recent events remind us that we have to be mindful of sticky fingers at the race track.

While hundreds camped and slept nearby, somebody stole the safe (and the $$$) at Golden Isles a few years ago.

Curious about the story of how Brown got his helmet returned.

[SLIDING SIDEWAYS]

Did the thief return it for the reward?

That would be ballsy but you never know.

Had my helmet, racing suit and raciever stolen out of my trailer while watching my brother's class run. Sorry people

If you read in the comments on that story, how about the guys who had their wallets stolen? Three were 24hr Daytona road racers from Europe. You are kinda fuked for awhile, and they used them directly across the street. If more places would check ID’s, it wouldn’t happen as much.

Bill Schlieper had a tool box stole off of a 4 wheeler this year. Not sure if it was ever returned.

Bill got his tool kit returned not long after the world.

Afroman got his pimp cup in Tennessee this weekend. 10k reward to anyone that finds it!

2 years ago at a.r.c.a. race in Salem Indiana Kody Evans had his race bag stolen lost everything..suit,helmet,hans,shoes,ear buds etc.....

Told you all this industry was filled with scumbags! Ohhh but let Ben write a story and some how it’s different from the way I say it. Just makes my point that much more valid! Love the stories though. I had my wallet stolen at Florence. Shoes stolen at eldora. Wheels and tires stolen. Pretty sad really not to mention the time someone dropped a handful of nuts and washers in my engine at Moler.

We walked up to the drivers meeting. It was horribly hot and we were not the first division out so I took my 3 layer quilted suit and under garments off. They were on hangers up in the nose of the trailer, the suit had my name and major sponsor on the front of it. We walked back in the trailer and I new immediately my stuff was gone. My brand new custom painted helmet was right on the bench, and they never touched it. To this day I cannot understand how they just walked away with a 3 layer suit and underwear and left the helmet behind.

Well to continue. We made sure someone was always at the trailer door overlooking the car. We were on track and 1 guy had to stay with the trailer. Because we had to load up, suit 2 was getting stitched up with logo's. If I would have caught the thief or whomever I guarantee you they would have taken a ride in a ambulance.

I think two guys were arrested, and the empty safe recovered.

It's sad that this happens, but thinking about it there are lots of times where all of our guys are gone from the trailer to watch a race. We usually park beside a couple guys who run other classes, and they try to keep an eye on things.
It sucks that you would have to do this, but it's the world we live in.
