    I watch a lot of DLM racing (real person live, and on Flo, and highlights on YT) and I honestly have never seen what some of you are talking about —---------- so, can someone here please find a few (on youtube) of these sliders you're talking about that Bobby pulls and post it here in this thread.

      Maybe I am totally misunderstanding what you are saying ….. but, isn't what you are saying above what race car drivers are supposed to do in general? Put other guys at a disadvantage on the track?


      No, you aren't supposed to force guys to wreck or stop. That isn't racing. Placing your car, moving at a slower rate of speed, ahead of the other car, is playing chicken. It's not racing.

        Every time you park your car in front of a guy who got back in the gas 1.5 car lengths ago, you are paying chicken. They are not very maneuverable at that time. A good slider doesn't linger to the inside of the car getting slid. They slide by and the car getting slid can turn down.

          Thanks - I see where you're coming from. I think. I’ll just have to pay more attention to Bobby’s style of sliding.

            Does he do it in either of these two races?

            Or

            I picked the easiest races I could find.

              If you have to go look for it and try to find the dirty sliders that Bobby has delivered so many times over the years, you're never going to see it...

              Some people are blind or just don't admit the facts...

                  I can name a few off the top of my head...don't know if they exist on youtube or not. Pierce Gustin at Burlington. Pierce Heckenast at Kankakee SN (I think it was Kankakee). Those are 2 of the ones I recall as I watched em happen.
