I blame Best Motorsports

[MasterSbilt_Racer]

I don't really have a dog in this fight, but to believe that Izzo believed the team had been sold, I'm just not buying that. One of the most high profile late model teams/drivers in a sport with a small world....there would have been leaks on that if it was indeed true. JR drives for Best, Best was on the car, Best was on the hauler.....don't piss on my shoes and tell me it's raining.

Who said the team had to be sold? We are simply talking about a car on a track.

Who really thinks Best buys the cars they race? Why is it impossible to think Josh, or Mark rented- leased or borrowed the crew, hauler, engines etc? If Brock was at the track. and listed as the owner then there is a problem, if not a warning should have been issued, and those involved told it cannot happen again. Waiting a month or what ever its been to find tracks to take the other SN dates, and hammering IZZO like they did is wrong.

I get what your saying. I guess it just depends on what you wish to believe. It would be a lot less confusing if they would have just banned the drivers in tire-gate and left the "teams" out. Much easier to prove that you are or aren't a particular human being rather than prove or disprove ownership of a car with no type of legal registration.

In 1991 Junior Johnson was suspended from Nascar for some infraction, and all they did was transfer the ownership from him to Flossie Johnson, his wife and change Geoff Bodine's car from number 11 to 97.

This isn't 1991 and clearly we don't need to justify anything based on NASCAR. But with that said Best never attempted to change the number or sponsors on the car.. no comparison here.

You know best even had it on their schedule and had a press release after the fact about the win. It appears to me that Brock has a huge ego to match WRG and wants to get in a pissing contest with WRG.

[latemodelfan]

He didn't get caught in the middle, he installed himself in the middle. He was told what to do and he didn't do it. Good riddance..

So true...I read the release and I doubt that Sam did anything other than what he said in the release. He knew what he was doing and it sounds like he made a choice. Tony has never really supported WRG or UMP fully. He runs IMCA stuff and a Lucas race.

Honestly hope no tracks take the date to show UMP that they will stick together. (I know that rarely happens but it needs to start)

for what this post is worth, the number did change from five to one

Good......guy has ballz and is standing up for what he believes is right.

Zero problem with it.

WRG late model leadership is a mess right now, the sport grew up around them and they haven't kept up IMO.

That change happened in the offseason...

[JabberJaws83]

So what about Babc0ck racing at Eldora?

[ThebigE]

Babc0ck's could of been entered under Lawrence Motorsports since "Saus" is crew cheifing for him and not ruinning his own car this year. My guess is they did the same thing Best did at LaSalle.

I don't have a working knowledge of how things are handled when a driver signs in for an event. What sort of information are they required to provide the track about the team?
Is their proof as to who owns the team required to be provided?
I understand if a driver is banned. That's pretty clear. That guy cannot be on the track.
How is who owns the "team" proven?
