He needs a two week vacation from racing at PRS.  

When on the track there isn't any place for that!  Do it where the whole world can't see.  In today's world that is no where at all.

wagner slid macri coming out of 4.  macri tried to cross over and clipped wagner's rear end...spinning him out.  looked like a racing deal and i'm amazed it doesn't happen more often.  you could argue macri could have cut him a break and let him in.  i think marks cut macri a break in the same situation for what turned out to be the winning pass by macri.

that's probably the difference between a vet like marks who's been out on tour.  i remember schatz giving dietrich room at bridgeport when he could have chopped him.  those guys have points racing and a bigger picture to think about.  

wagner wrecked shortly there after and climbed into macri's car to yell at him during the red flag.  he would probably tell you he should have waited until he calmed down from his wreck to settle things.  he'll be racing macri all season so i don't blame him for trying to clarify whose house port royal is. 

i don't have a dog in the fight to be honest.  we could use a good rivalry since the montieth/dietrich feud disappeared.  i'm sure there are other rivalries...but they're probably more behind the scenes and macri/wagner are two of the top drivers at port.  it means more when it's the best going at it.

When he climbed in that is fighting.  He didn't climb in just to yell at him. watch his left arm.

Here is what the rules are.

Anyone fighting in the pits or on the track, or anywhere on the Port Royal Speedway property, will be subject to legal action, a fine up to $1,000, and suspension or ejection for the balance of the event and/or season

Wait a minute.  What were you doing even watching since you obviously hate the place so bad? Crawl back under your rock at Lincoln.

He was watching some good racing in 3 top divisions.  Someone is going to teach Macri a lesson.  He chopped DD at lincoln, he gave Wagner no chance. It's a long season.

great job by port to get that show in and in a timely fashion.  something like 11 heat races and 4 consolations.  we left after the modified feature and it was around 6:30.  they got started a bit late too.  

I saw it live and just watched the video. I wasn't sure watching it real time but watching the video Macri may have turned to go back under him an inch or so too early ( his front wing was not damaged so it was close enough to be hard racing) but; who was it that came the whole way up the track coming out of the turn? He has a habit and I am sure there are a few drivers  would agree of putting guys in the position of either lift or get wrecked. This time he got the short end of stick but he should know by now that Macri is not going to lift to let someone drive by him. It was hard racing could easily been the other way around as hard they run each other.  And either would have been pissed at the momentif it had been them. No one intentionally runs someone into that wall. 

I was watching the replays.  And yes the reason they had to do the slider from down under is because the cars will not stick to the bottom of the race track unless they are going really slow.  Between Macri and Wagner, that was a racing accident.  No, I don't have a dog in this race.  Just saying what I saw in highlights and they don't lie.

Logan needs to be suspended.  There is no need to put your arms into another car that you just had an altercation with on the track a lap or two before.  Not in todays world.  If this were 20 to 30 years ago,  that is a different story.  Jack Hewitt would not be able to pull half the stuff he did back in the day.

What Logan did under the red is fighting, but I guess we need the driver of the 88 back driving again to read the officals the rule book so they can see it in written words.

So what you are saying is that in an adrenaline filled sport and situation one driver went over to another driver and had a heated discussion probably using some words that you may not want use in an elementary school classroom, and didn't keep his hands to himself but in the end no one was hurt? I don't really see a problem and if anyone does then I suggest they don't watch hockey and order a shirt with the quote, "I just hope all teams had fun."

In today's racing....that is a HUGE problem.  20 to 30 years ago no problem at all.

Wagner needs suspended for a couple of races!  If we are going by what they have printed in the rules......which they only follow the rules when they want to over at PRS....depending on who you are.

HUGE...lol.  People whine about cookie cutter corporate racers then one shows some emotion and it's a HUGE problem and snowflake get's offended.  The reality is if it was someone giving Lance a piece of their mind you'd be all for it and you know it, even though you will deny it.

I'm just glad you enjoyed the awesome racing provided by the racers and the track crew Sunday. 

While we're talking suspensions...I think WingedStrawser should be suspended for a couple of weeks on here.

The move that Macri made on Wagner looked like a play out of the Fred Rahmer hand book....lol

Dude eat a snickers, you get cranky when you're hungry.  

No harm, no foul on either deal yesterday. A slide job from left field to right field happens all the time at the Port. It was a racing accident with the crossover from Macri. An 1" or 2 was the difference in the outcome. No harm, no foul!

Wagner & Whittal accident was not shown on replay so not sure who did what to who if anything like that happened. Whittal came over to check on a furious Wagner, but he was rebuffed.

Wagner gave Macri a piece of his mind & I saw no punches so what is the big deal?  Plenty more races this year & things like this will happen.  Logan got his feelings hurt & Macri said nothing about it Victory lane. 

JUST A RACING DEAL....

I personally did not go to the slow palace but did see the highlights on FLO.  Logan did nothing wrong as he had Macri cleared and Macri turned him.  Same senario when Macri slid Marks but obviously the smarter driver.  Unfortunately slids are the only way to pass at the Port as I am sure it was like ice.

I hate to tell you.  But I like the dream team,  apart not so much but since they teamed up,  I kinda find myself cheering for that car.

It's some real small dick energy to go after someone that is strapped in when you caused the situation to begin with. Maybe Logan should put that effort in to being more than a one trick (track) pony.

I don't have a problem with the racing deal on the track.  I have a HUGE problem with what happened after Logan got out of the car after he flipped in a totally different incident.  He then ran to Macri's car.  That is where he went wrong, and he was dead wrong for going into Macri's car.
