    Then maybe it was payback time for Erb from another race?

      Erb drives the widest race car on the planet when he's about to get passed. It's a wonder this doesn't happen more than it does. He's good at passing cars, letting cars pass him......not so much.
      He is usually only "Erbing" you if in the lead. Stovall must have rubbed him the wrong way somewhere.

          Think heard either Essex or Trenton Berry reference some history, not sure heard that right. Stovall is fun to watch but he uses his tires up more quickly, my belief he was a sitting duck to Pearson or others behind him, was a matter of time. Jesse has tended to struggle more in latter stages of long races at Wheatland, even in years where he had top 10 finishes. At 25 laps he is a major threat, longer races against national level competition his lesser experience at tire management begins to show.
          I hate time trials.

            Get it straight kwd, Erb was leading the "device" wheeling mr average until Erb was door slamed lol. Slow? That device couldn't get by without a punt.

              Watching the race, I'm not sure Erb was holding up anyone any more than the rest of the field was - i was not looking at lap times but they all seeemed to be close and passing was hard. They were 2X2 at least a few cars deep. Erb also had a car inside of him - EPJ if I'm not mistaken, that caused him to move up the track. I'm not saying he does not get wide, but in this case, he was just racing and searching for a groove with speed. Stovall plowed him. I'm not sure I've seen Dennis retaliate, and it was not on the video last night. If he did, good for him. It's ok to throw an elbow every now then.

                Seems to me, if you had a better racing surface you would not have such a hard time passing lapped cars???? Maybe we should be mad at tracks for not having a raceable surface??? Guess that would be using to much common sense to see the real problem????? I didn't see this race so maybe there was another reason to not be able to get around????

                  Being hard to pass is good. Being hard to lap is an entirely different thing.

                    No, it's Erb. He somehow just widens his car the entire width of the track that chicken shT

                      A lapper retaliating for a racing incident is retarded. If this was Fairbury and the pass JD put on Erb, while I agreed with it because of how wide Erb was, I also have no issue if Erb would have run over him to take the lead back.
                      Up in the air who my next “favorite” driver is. Really losing hope on Bloomer getting anywhere back to “normal”.

                        Correct, to an extent, you hold someone up too long, things probably going to get dicey.

                          I guess you're werent watching! Nothing wrong with the racetrack, at all!

                          They all ran too soft of fronts that caused their cars to get too tight, ie couldn't steer as well.

                            Stovall was going for it, Erb was all over the track, Erb could of given room on the outside as he was going nowhere. Track was as good as you can ask for.
