A possible pass under yellow yet the driver was not questioned and was instead moved to last place? I hope there is more to the story then that. Did he pass like 40 cars through the grass under yellow or something?


Jamie., same thing happened to us at the last NASA race, We got a passing under yellow penalty, never told about it, found ouy about 3 days later on my laps. John Mueller knows about the issur
That is why we passed on the NASA championship

Holy Crap that's a video clip to keep forever!

Why is there a truck parked in the grass on the outside of the track, and why is the corner station not holding yellow?

I can understand it is the spins just happened, but with a truck in an impact zone?

Im sure John will fill us in when he finds out but it seems very odd as to how somebody could be penalized and not even be questioned about it to get their side of the story. Charbs still has no idea why he was moved back. It seems very strange to me.

and only one person threw a block great weekend thanks jeff and cory for all the help aslo had a blast running iron steel 302 boss mustang bye the way not a girly car ernie sr. finished top 6 I am proud of that never drove the car.

still in the works on the yellow thing will keep you posted.
Satire is primarily a literary genre or form, although in practice it can also be found in the graphic and performing arts. In satire, vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon.

So you got protested by a driver over a 6th place finish. Even though you did not complete a pass under yellow of a driver who was sitting back at the restart and you were almost 1 second faster then? Who the hale would do that. I know it wasn't Blake so who does that leave?

You really think I would throw a fit over 6th?!?! Really? You obviously don't know me. If there was money involved in the place I was fighting for then yes I would protest.

I did not know you two were one in the same! (screen name = real name) And it was only a question. Most people I know would not protest a 6th place finish either unless there was money. A protest for the Podium I could see. I edited the above post

Good race by all, and too bad about all of those double yellows from my vantage point.

Top 6 running, and Top 10 Finishing car for sale in the classifieds. Best dyno'ed 1.8 and according to Mike Collins, best HP/weight ratio in the class. Come get it for the bargain price of 24k!!!!

I am Andrew Charbonneau and I approve this message.
