    Clanton got hit in the head last night on first lap

    Word is he got hit in the helmet/face and is out for the Dream.

    Maybe its time to bring them bars closer together in front of the driver?

      its a fine line as if they are too close then you cant see or will clog with mud. 2 head injuries in 2.5 weeks is not good for sure.

        That’s a tough situation

          Did it knock any sense into him?

            Clanton and Ricky had another scrape during the day portion. I figured more would come from that..

              I think you’ll start seeing those wire screens used on big block mods and sprint cars make their way to late models.

                The spacing on some of those bars are wide enough to throw a softball through.

                    Time will tell, but I'm guessing not!!!
                    If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention!

                      You would expect a fight between a mud ball and a coconut would be won by the latter.🤔

                        Clanton could get hit in the head by a rock at 120 mph and the rock would have to go to the hospital.

                          We always had to run a screen across the windshield area.

                            Pretty sad that some people think it is funny that a driver got injured.

                              Try having a conversation with him and you'll very quickly realize he brings it all on himself.
