what happened the week before at dixie ? thrown out for cheated tires. i didnt see you commenting on that. and what about the week befor wrecked himself trying to keep up. didnt see no comment on that either spending tens of thousands of dollars to race for $400. where was he for the nesmith race at boyds if he is so good?

[Ford motorsports]

Craig Reece isn't all he's cracked up to be. He's racing at Dixie every week when he used to run at Boyd's every Friday night and get out run.

[Itsinmyblood]

Why all the hating? What is it about a guy winning that ticks people off. No one is claiming he is a superstar, just won a couple races. I have been around racing since I was 2 months old with my family in racing and have worked for a couple of super latemodel series. Most guys will not admit it but almost everyone has cheated at one point in there career, they just dont always get caught.

[matdaddy]

I cheat all the time and I could care less if we get caught.

[Itsinmyblood]

I cheat all the time and I could care less if we get caught.

Ha Ha at least your honest.

Dirty racer

That douche bag Craig Reece wrecked and sent a racer to the hospital this past weekend. He he spun the guy out and flipped him. The guy he wrecked is probably one of the cleanest racers out there, something that will never be said about this guy and his illegal motor.

[Skinny64]

Who did Craig crash at Dixie Saturday night? I wasn't there to see it... i was at another track that the dalton douche bag is scared of.... Talladega short track.

[jgebhardt]

Crashed

He crashed Henry Ward. Henry is a nice guy. He races clean and tough to beat. Craig was behind him, clipped his quarter panel then Henry spun out hit the wall and flipped. Havent heard yet but we are hoping Henry is ok.

[jgebhardt]

He's a cheat!

He's a known cheater. He has been caught with an illegal carb spacer this year. There has also been the tire issue. For motors that are all supposed to be the same, his sounds WAY healthier. Only way to do that is to have an illegal motor. Oh wait thats right I already mentioned the carb spacer when he was disqualified. I would imagine the spacer was I keep them from digging further into his illegal motor. I'm sure you have a "perfectly good excuse" for that too, just like the accidental tire. If he is so good why does he have all he can do to stay in front of a 17 year old kid in his first year of racing every week? Why did he run someone into the wall causing them to flip? Probably because the guy was in front of him and he Being the dirty racer that he is wrecked the guy to get by. So 5 wins ok, it's easier when you're not legal and you race dirty.

ok lets look at this.. cheated tires? nope Reece had a tire on his car that didn't have DRS label on it, that means by mistake he grabbed the wrong tire out of the trailer, not cheated tires, ..... wrecking himself cause he couldn't keep up? really, the guy who is leading the points at Dixie couldn't keep up? guess he couldn't keep up in the 4 features he has won at Dixie this year and guess he couldn't keep up at Rome either, where he won also. as far as spending all that money to race for $400 each week, well that applies to ever race car on the track... really in crates or supers or even steel heads name me a driver who is making money..... or better yet name one who is breaking even... can't can you? the night your talking about he couldn't keep up, well he spun to keep from t boning another driver, but I guess you think he should of just went ahead and t boned the other guy huh? now as far as racing at Boyd's well Reece has run Boyd's and does when the chance presents itself, but Reece is running for points at Dixie and with sponsor obligations on Saturday racing on Friday nights is almost impossible, but you know what, they line them up each and every night at Dixie so if you got a car and you think your better why not run down there and line it up? we will get to see who is the better driver.... but I think your just wanting to stir the pot, with no facts to back it up.

Wasn't there but heard Craig made a bonehead move that ended in Henry going to the hospital the old saying is what goes around comes around I hope thats true in this case. Craig you might need to go ahead and order you a new car

[drflavio309]

well if your so sure he is illegal, put your money up and tear him down, that would stop the questions, is he legal? I can't testify yes or no but if your so worried about it then tear him down.. simple as that...

[jgebhardt]

I hope it does come around.

Henry is a good guy and a tough racer. It was pretty (not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)(not a nice word)ty that Craig did that. If he isn't in front thats what he does though, he crashes people to get there.

[jgebhardt]

I don't need to.

What goes around comes around and he will get his. I will be there laughing when that kid (who by the way is right behind Craig in points) beats him. There has been plenty of talk about tearing him down but not everyone has money to just throw around. They go there to race with what they have without cheating because they love racing. Am I so sure? Well he has already been caught and disqualified more than once. Seems like evidence enough.

Henry is my brother and thank goodness he's ok, only a concussion but could've been much worse. He is a great brother and a really good guy. He loves racing and been doing it most his life. It seems obvious the crash was intentional and i don't understand why??? If he ,Craig Reece, thinks that will keep him from racing he's sadly mistaking because he WILL be back out there with more heart and determination than ever before!!
