Now LaSalle Speedway and Josh Richards in trouble with WRG / DIRTcar

[Josh Bayko]

Maybe some group like Ultimate could step in with something. They have a southeast and northeast deal. Could have a midwest one too.

The Ultimate deal is touring. That would just add to the regional tour clusterf*ck.

They took away the Summer Nationals races? Holy cow. But I predict Izzo will ultimately prevail in this situation, and not in court or something like that. He'll do things his way and I bet other tracks will follow suit, not only in support of LaSalle Speedway, but for the betterment of their own facility as well. I bet a few years from now, when things are different (for the better) in our sport, we might look back and see this as one of the turning points.

The pissy way the whole tire gate nonsense went down will be remembered as the venture out onto the slippery slope.

IMO of course.

You can't expect to take advantage of the positives of sanctioning without taking the negatives along with it. The world isn't cupcakes and rainbows.

It also isn't about back room deals and do whatever you want cause it's always worked before either........people are smarter than that.

It's no secret the ump guys have a hard on for certain folks, they don't hide it very well.

You could be right but it definitely is a issue here in the Midwest. Every track is WRG/Dirtcar/UMP here in the Midwest. Their really is no option for the racer or track. You kiss their butts or else.

It's exactly why it works so well at those tracks Josh mentioned in the southeast.......they aren't chained to one master.

Why should they hide it? Cuts down on bullsh*t.

That's my point. I'm not defending Best. It's Tony and LaSalle that are getting screwed. Not right.

That's WRG for yeah!!

[kidrock]

I have no problem with WRG enfrocing their rules but, to allow Richards and Best motorsports to
enter the event then do this. That I don't agree with.

Man I hope your correct I would love to see tracks leave UMP be the best thing that's happened to st louis area tracks in a long long time

That does seem like bs to me. Whats good for the goose... yall know the end.

I did notice they had Riggs motorsports on the car that weekend, but I'm almost certain that has been on the car for quite awhile, pretty much since the teams came together.

What pkracer is saying has me wondering if that's what happened here too.
