I was sitting right at turn 4. Erb didn't do anything wrong at all, he just went in high for the first time since 49 caught him and by the time 49 realized it, he piled into the 1. That incident was 100% the fault of the 49 car, but it was just a hard racing deal.
A driver has stolen boobirds from Bloomer.

Agreed....that's where Erb is cutting an interview that doesn't really match what he was trying to accomplish at the moment.Originally posted by No_Weak_Links View PostBingo...nothing wrong with moving around and taking a man's line but you don't do it in the middle of a corner.
As far as JD getting mad, it takes quite a bit to ruffle his feathers. He is about as calm of a driver as you'll meet.
Don't think for second he won't remember, though.
Most of these Lucas regulars have mutual respect for one another and will race clean.
The new guys (Terbo/Bronson) on tour are going to challenge just where all the respect lies between these guys.
Should be a very interesting season.

So, what you're saying is you're a part of the 10% who wasn't booing him. I'll side with the other 90% who were there live and rained down the booooos so loudly that Erb couldn't hardly talk over them.Originally posted by luke81 View PostI was sitting right at turn 4.

I dunno how it was exactly the #49's fault since he was committed to the top entering turn 3 and Erb was committed to the bottom and then went high.
And believe me I'm not a fan of either.

Like every young driver they have a few things to learn and he will. I really can't fault the kid 100% on this one.Originally posted by #FALSuperman View PostAgreed....that's where Erb is cutting an interview that doesn't really match what he was trying to accomplish at the moment.

When you come to a new team and you are running as good as they are and winning you want more. It's just like an addiction and lets face it that team has been hitting on all cylinders so, they want more but, he's gonna have to learn how to respect others or they will teach it to them.

What is this "committed?" Drivers change lanes in racing! I guess if O'Neal had stayed so "committed" to the bottom that would have worked out as well as the top did? There is no expectation of the leader of a race to yield to the car that isn't even next to him, the 49 was all the way behind him.

I hope you're right and he does learn, becuase the kid has plenty of talent that he doesn't need to do that stuff.Originally posted by kidrock View PostLike every young driver they have a few things to learn and he will. I really can't fault the kid 100% on this one.

No body likes a driver winning all the time unless it's the driver you like that's winning all the time.Originally posted by luke81 View PostWhat is this "committed?" Drivers change lanes in racing!

That's the kind of stuff you do when your young. Like I said he might have to learn the hard way. I used to always tell my son you can learn the hard way or the easy way and for whatever reason when he was young it was the hard way. That little video won't win him any fans that's for sure. There's guys out there that will not put up with him beating and banging on their cars. Remember when Babb stuff Pierce in the wall to teach him he wasn't going to put up with that chit. Well that will happen to Erb if he doesn't be careful and show some respect.Originally posted by #FALSuperman View PostI hope you're right and he does learn, becuase the kid has plenty of talent that he doesn't need to do that stuff.

Yes, that video he made would've been better off left alone.Originally posted by kidrock View PostThat's the kind of stuff you do when your young. Like I said he might have to learn the hard way.

The enjoyment Erb got out of it, makes it hard on the ones sticking up for him to not at least second guess what was going on in his head out there on the track.
He'll learn one way or the other. Like I also said, he doesn't even need to be like that, because he's got the talent to race with the top guys.

I agree he is very talented and proved that last year running his own stuff with according to him limited resources but, yet got the most out of it and he did improve from the beginning of the year.Originally posted by #FALSuperman View PostGood post kidrock.

We have to also remember if he starts tearing up a bunch of Eric and Kelly Brocks equipment and it starts to cost them money things will change and they will rein him in.
