    Default Owens at deer creek

    Any idea why owens parked on the front stretch after the race? Wonder if he had some words for the 44? I read the 44 and 20 had contact and the 20 ended up with a flat

    Why was Owen allowed to change BOTH rear tires when only one was flat?

    I thought the same. That might explain why he was parked on front stretch.

    He was awarded the tough break award which was $1000 in honor of Arnie Ranta.

    I thought tire rules prevented changing tires unless flat?

    Oppps another race were steve francis turns a blind eye. He must be reading from a totally different rule book. Or maybe he can't read. I thought the guy was going to get racers inline, Yea right.

    The only rule I could find online stated:
    A tire must be flat before being able to change tires.

    Goes from singular to plural.

    The Pittsburgher that Pierce won had a rule where you could only change tires if one was flat. All of the top 5 stopped at least once for new tires and none of them actually had a flat.
