    How about the fantastic job 17 year old Hudson Oneal did racing Bronson and Pierce hard and CLEAN for several laps. The kid got a handshake and a good job from me afterwards.

      32 wrecked himself. Bronson didn’t touch him until after he pounded the cushion and almost stopped

        Bronson got into him entering the corner as he was setting the car. That’s what caused him to go sliding over the cushion. When Dod was having their difficulties, we went back and watched it again because I though the same that Pierce just screwed up. It was definitely on Bronson though.

            I was wanting to argue my well documented facts. I think Bronson got into the 32 with the right rear and caused the problem. Apologies to the 32 nation

Coming out of turn 4 coming to the checkered, Kenny Wallace threw a slider on Brent Weaver for the final transfer spot and walled him. Weaver hits Wallace after the race, then Wallace gets out and gives a Kyle Busch salute to a chorus of boos.
              Then none of them people know what a slide job is. Coming outta 4 what Kenny did was not a slide job, he flippin stuffed that guy. They should do what they did to Dohm at Atomic when he pulled an awful move on Clint Smith. Gave it to Clint Smith instead.

              Kenny wasn’t going to get Weaver. Woulda been like Shirley pulling that move on Babb in that last awesome prelim feature. He kinda did(outta 2), but into three and outta 4 Shirley and Babb ran each other clean. Kenny, who I defended against the haters, definitely did that guy very wrong.

                I know the argument is wider tires equals "W" for the guy with the most hp...but you still gotta wheel it.

                5k tomorrow seems just fine. $500 tonight...I agree is light, especially with 60 mods in the pits.
                Those tires are the only thing attempting to keep them cheaper and the only thing separating them from an unlimited sportsman car. Oh, and front fenders.

                  100% agree. They ever give them wider tires, an already dwindling class will go the way of super lates.

                    The fans tonight in Fairbury Illinois were truly incredible... We had a flat tire on lap ONE of our qualifying race... We drove hard and Re started 15th and passed a car on the final corner for the...

                      Freaking nuthuggers. Either they didn’t watch that race, or are blind. And obviously Kenny thinks it was ok, so hopefully next time he gets walled for a win or a transfer spot. Since it’s all good and good racing.

                      No longer a Wallace fan for sure.

                        I want to see a video of this because I was sitting in turn 4 where this happened and from there it looked like Kenny clearly had position on weaver coming out of 4 and weaver should have lifted I know nobody likes getting passed like that but it didn't look as dirty as some people are saying. to me. but I would like to see another view of it.

                          You're right. He is. He sat outside his trailer talking and signing autographs for people for hours. Pictures with little kids and just shooting the bull. Most other racers are inside their cozy air conditioned toters till it's race time. With the money he makes from FOX Network, he could have one of them big ole haulers and toters but he's fine in a little enclosed trailer.

                          And from where I was at, their were more cheers than boo's. The only boo's around me were from a fat lady in red giving him the finger with her husband. And yes. They looked like the old time 70's dirt fans that often give us a bad name. I thought about telling her,"Hey, Kenny's parked right over there. I can take you over there and show you if you want."

                          Wallace is a whacko nutcase, but he's good for the sport and very humble. Just stop and chat with him. You'd be surprised.

                            Well if they both were going for the win and kenny did run into weaver a little bit I would have done the same thing. Last lap anything goes

You cannot attempt to race that hard with someone who drives harder than you in the same line. Was it more on Bronson, sure, but Bobby shoulda seen the writing on the wall. And he has pulled them moves himself, so he knows what the end result is.
                              Pierce had already thrown a couple sliders at Bronson, who turned down and passed Bobby on exit. {correct thing to do in that situation.)
                              On the last one, Bronson took exception and dumped Pierce. Why he didn't just pass on the bottom(he did it successfully two times prior) just shows his character. That was my view from turn 4. I'll watch the video and see if I missed something.
