    First off, Pierce's slider was questionable, at best. From a mere spectator viewpoint what happens to the equipment on the track doesn't affect me financially at all, it's just part of what makes dirt late model racing entertaining. Some of these moves might piss me off for the moment but really, it has no bearing on quality of life. Furthermore, dirt late model drivers pulling boneheaded sliders on a 1/4 mile bullring present very little possibility of physical injury. All that taken into consideration it's a bit silly and a waste of time for someone like me to get emotionally distraught.

    Young Mr. Pierce will continue to do what he does for as long as no one follows through with rearranging his facial features. If no other driver feels adequately compelled to make him pay a painful price there is no reason for me to care. I would only say that breaking his nose, and the humiliation that goes with it, makes much more sense than wadding up his, and possibly they're own, equipment.

    Besides, this stuff makes for great message board conversation.

      It's good for the sport. Some people get so bent out of shape over this stuff that doesn't even involve them. It's good entertainment to me.

        I'm with ya' 100% Pennsboro. Beatin' and bangin' is a large part of the charm of dirt late model racing. The more they beat, bang and wreck each other the more exciting it is!

          So it’s the person being slid that is supposed to yield? Interesting,,,,,.
          I hate time trials.

            I’m not bent out of shape in the least. Bobby is exciting, no doubt, most of the time he is the show. That said, if a driver doesn’t want to keep getting run over or driven poorly they have to be willing to make the offender pay. Until someone gives Bobby that payment he’ll continue to use other guys up and drive aggressively, putting himself in positions where equipment gets torn up and other drivers are pissed. Eventually, someone is going to settle up with him.

              you all sound like a bunch of cry babies. he was the show and you can't stand it.big old men on the key board.think you know all about dirt racing.take your pills and go to bed.when you slide someone and the guy gets pissed and runs into you and takes his self out, then he has a lot to learn.i though it was funny myself.

                The one doing the slider needs to time it and judge it better. Bobby knew going into that corner there was NO WAY it was going to be good. Weiser couldnt go under Wenger was there. Til Bobby has to put his own money into the car he will never change. If you lift esp at fals you lose 2 spots. I AGREE 100% with Weisser. Cant wait for payback then lets here the crying. I think its funny pierce made his own fans mad and lost some over this. On to the next track.

It's going to be in the sport a long time and very impressive how well he does in both late models and mods. Last year in 2 weekends he won 8 features. Can't wait for tonight.
                    He learned from one of the best. A Dog is the real deal. Hope he tackles the Hell Tour this year.

                      And we're suppose to believe that's the truth? Which it very well could be or very well could not be.

                        This is the exact kind of racing that makes FALS popular with so many fans — yet here we have the same ol’ crybabies whining again lol. When you’re starting 12th on a tiny track and only have 40 laps to get to the front, you mash the loud pedal and rip the lip. Thank goodness for drivers like Bobby Pierce who put on a show for us fans. This is exactly why dirt racing is so much better than every other form of racing.

                          Lil Bobby said he’s never been in a fight in his life, that probably has a lot to do with his driving style as well.

                              I thought the show was Shannon Babb rim riding through top like he used to. That was the sh!t!!

                                apparently no other cars was on the track. he's not the only 1 to do it. smh 12th to 2 as he should have he's got better equipment than most that was there last night so not that impressive. just like last chance race for pdc 2 years ago. nobody really in that race and they added 2 laps to that race. Babb was toying with Bobby. nobody had anything for babb last night that's why last restart babb checked out. won by over 2 seconds.
