I got one for you .. You put on new tire and let the car down ...right in the brake cleaner you just used on the brakes.. you roll the car back.. and Sam comes up and snips the tire... you just got DQ....Think about it ... Its only as good as the Test you do....

WOW. I find it hard to believe that crew chiefs, owners, and drivers would risk getting caught. I believe if they are gonna check random, all tires from every car are tested. Make results public! This who was and wasn't tested is BS! Feel for fans that some of those drivers wont be a specific show now though.
Anyone remember Hartman soaking his tires in creek at Pennsboro at DTWC? Also a lot of the drivers, and crew chiefs are pushing the boundaries. Totally agree that WRG (UMP, WOO) and Lucas Oil need to work together and set standards. As I can see the possibility of Lucas coming after WOO drivers now.

On behalf of Best Performance Motorsports and Brandon Sheppard I’d like to release the following statement:
We will be at the Summer National races tonight, as we have nothing to hide. We are appealing the penalty that we have received, and have already begun the process. Brandon, myself, and the entire team, work way too hard to do something as foolish as cheating on tires. We have too much respect for Eldora and the sport of racing. We would like to thank all of our supporters and fans as we work to get through this.

As for your last statement. I see it the other way around. Lucas drivers going to WoO. Guys like JD, McCreadie, Erb, O'Neal etc want a fair shake. They don't want to run against cheaters if they don't have to. Just my opinion.Originally posted by dirtisforracin View PostWOW.

LOL! You sound like Barry Scheck at the OJ trial, bro'! If they are going to take large amounts of cash and suspend drivers they need to make sure they handle the evidence properly.Originally posted by Barbecueboy View PostSo let me get this straight.........another poster said that an official named Sam was walking around the pits , snipping tires and putting samples into ziplock baggies.
Well that sounds like a very legit way to collect samples......doesn't it?
No possible way any of those samples could be tainted or handled incorrectly........right?

I'm far from a bloomer fan, although I try not to bash him simply because he is very talented. I have no doubt about any of them. Why would you have a doubt about Thornton? He may not have even known and may not have allowed it had he known, but the owner of that car has been caught on several occasions. My comment was simply that NONE of these 5 will admit it, even if they are guilty. Most murderers deny murdering people too......Originally posted by chupp n bloomer fan View PostI like how crow and you speak for all Bloomer fans, comical. I don't for a second think he didn't juice tires. Only one I have doubt about is Ricky Thornton Jr. The other 4 I'd go with guilty as charged.
And for crow, 6'2" 200, no tats, don't smoke.

Well it is a fact that Richards was tested and passed, and if WRG was trying to screw over Lucas guys they would of tested/failed Erb to hand the win to Richards.Originally posted by dirtisforracin View PostWOW.

I don't get how people can't accept that these guys soaked tires and move on. Seriously, is it that hard to believe Bloomquist or Owens do it? They have both been caught before.
Thanks,
Jeff.

It is comical that people think buying tires the day of the race is a possibility. Most drivers spend 30 minutes to a hour siping, grooving, and grinding each tire. If you put a spec tire with nothing allowed you will see races just like Indy was for NASCAR a few years ago where if Hoosier screws up there will be pit stops every 15 laps. Also the endless possibilities of tires is what makes most races exciting, the guy that leads uses up his tires and has to fight the dogs off. Everybody wants to complain that the aerodynamics of the cars are causing the racing to worsen (which isn't true) then go ahead and put everybody on the same tire and watch the train race happen. Frankly I don't care who got busted but everybody seems to have an opinion on how to fix it without doing anything but watching it instead of being in the shop Monday through Friday
