Did Florence run????

[noballsnobabies]

thats 2 races in a row that Rice takes out a faster car!!!!

[BangBang]

yes, jason jameson won after spinning and going to the tail. chamberlain looked to be checking out and broke, then jewell and rice got together taking each other out then jameson got around chinn on last lap for the win. best race of the year there easily so far in my book.

BTW Jameson didnt "Spin" out on his own....had to check down for the idiots wrecking in fron of him.

didnt say he did. yes he spun to avoid a wreck, but yet he still spun. was it really necessary to point that out??

I'll be sad to see Jewell go. He is one of my favorite racers, but Florence isn't going to change the rules for him. If you stop on the track for any reason, you go to the tail. It's been in the rule book for atleast 10-12 years. It's bitten countless racers, including the car I am with more than once. Going back to last year, Florence did reinstate something of a rough driving rule, but it has to be a lot more clear cut than it was last night.

As I said, Jewell is one of my favorites, and the nicest guy in the pits. Also, I am not a Jerry Rice fan. That said. Jewell doored Rice on the opposite end of the track when he passed him. I saw it as Rice returning the favor, with no intention of taking Jewell out, just completing the pass the same he was passed.

Best of luck to Mike the rest of the year, and I am saddened to hear that this will be his final year.

You must be looking into some of those rose colored glasses that were available a couple years ago.I ask,were do you view the races from?From my point of view Jewell pased rice comming out of turn 4,yes there was very little contact,and I can say it was caused by rice.Then we go to turn #1,and rice takes out jewell.What a classless act on the part of rice.He did the same thing to brandon green last year,he hates to get passed.

Rice is dirty, and can't pass anyone without tearing them up!

Perhaps Josh will have a discussion with Jerry on his behavior of late. Perhaps probation for another incident and then he has to go elsewhere to race. I think they need to stop it now before it gets out of hand like other incidents have in the past.

I seriously hope that Mike does come back to Florence again, especially for the bigger shows that are coming up quickly. He is a CLASS ACT all the way around!!! Extremely NICE guy to ALL fan's and other drivers!!!

It was a great side-by-side battle until Rice's stupidity came out when he intentionally wrecked Jewell. I’m just glad that Rice took himself out too. Jewell has raced clean every time that I’ve seen him race. Brandon Green was going to pass Rice last year and probably get the win but Rice put him into the wall on purpose. Rice is the only driver that I don’t like. At least Jameson came back to get the win.

Mike Jewell and his team are an example of what class and clean racing are. Many teams can learn from them.

[Dirt in my eye]

old dog fight @fllorence

the first old dog to take the lead...John Gill! Only to relinguish the lead, the hard-charging insane man Chamberlain...Next on the list would be Rice to hold the lead until the World Class Racer, and also old dog, Mike Jewell charged up to the lead. Rice would not give up so easily taking the lead back from Jewell...taking the white flag. the two went in to turn one leaning on each other, going into two, a racing incident occurred. With Rice going to the infield and Jewell limping around the track waiting for the tower to rule, could not help but feel sorry for Jewell that eventually turned into the infield also. Handing the lead to Chinn. With the green flag displayed, Chinn pulled off to a two car length over Jamison coming to the white flag, Chinn and Jamison nose to tail..Chinn slipped up going down the backstretch leaving Jamison to slip by for the win! A great race...you can find pics at http://www.sraracingphotos.com

I wasn't there, usually am. I hope that something can be worked out with Mike to return. The stopping on the track rule can be tough and really bite someone. Rice has always been a pretty clean racer until that nonsense with Green. Followed by an embarrassing interview. Sounds like we are going to lose a good racer in Jewel. I am really, really unhappy to hear this. I hope Josh reaches out and talks to Mike about this unfortunate event.

Mike Jewell is one of the best people I ever met. About 10 or 12 years ago I broke the gear in my car,a roadhog at richmond, and my cousin and I were having a time loading when Mr. Jewell and his team came over and helped us. After the car was loaded he talked to us for a half hour. That made an impression on me because he treated like fellow racers instead of a couple of kids just starting out. He probably doesn't remember that but I will never forget it.

That is very nice to hear, glad to hear he did that. Makes me like him more.

[chupp n bloomer fan]

Maybe Jerry should try that on Don O'Neal.

Now onto the tower, in the past once the white flag was thrown & a caution was needed they raced back to the checkered flag but last night they decided that they would have 2 laps to go after the caution>

Jewel and Rice were sitting sidways between 1 and 2. They were 1st and 2nd at the time so it would've been a bad idea to have the rest of the cars race back to the checkered flag. Throwing the caution was the right thing to do. We got a great finish between Jameson and Chin because of it.

RE

But the same thing happened on the pure stock race right before the late model race. Two cars spun in 2 on the last lap and they threw the yellow and the checker together instead of just the yellow and then a restart. . Why is that different? that is so unconsistant.

just another track taking care of the local boys as in jameson
