I don't get down to OKC as much as I used to,but I see after Wed.'s mod A,Stanley's driving style hasn't changed much since he stuck my friend's pro stock in the fence by the flagstand 16 yrs. ago.Do the guys who race Mods there on a regular basis,always beat and bang on each other like they were tonight?I know the track started rutting up pretty bad during the B's,but that is still not a very good excuse.Just my opinion.Liked to have seen the win go to the 05 car.

i dont see where either one was more in the wrong than the other - they was both beatin and bangin each other. in turn 3 tho - i'm not so sure reed took him out.

lets be honest - the entire crowd was rootin for anderson - so when you see him spin off like that...............i think a lot of people see what they want to see.

- all three of us - as well as others in my general area - must have been watching a different race. we dont even like reed -------- but we thought there wasnt 1 to fault more than the other. i would have cheered the 05 if he won - i didnt cheer the 1s when he did win. but at the same time -------- i dont think he wrecked the 05 in turn 3. i did think the 05 darting through the infield and coming back out was incredibly funkin STUPID! I;m gonna be real curious to see if all those who thump their chest and talk about safety on here ------------ actually comment about who foolishly dangerous that was - he very well coulda T Boned the 2-4 place guys broadside at speed.

like i said its gonna be funny to find out how hypocritical some are - because every single person on this board cries safety all the time (me included) -------- what anderson did through the infield there was incredibly ..................... stupid. there could have been photographers/officials in thru there - not to mention whatever racers are comin through turn 4 when you dart out at a 90 degree angle at speed. i thought it was days of thunder for a moment there.............

now all you impassioned folks can boo me too lol. i'm hoping that i aint the only 1 who can be objective though.

i'm also convinced that the trenches in track are caused by all the driver side weight on slugo's golf cart..........

There've been plenty of times I thought Stanley Reed was in the wrong, but last night was not one of them. Anderson messed up and let Reed inside of him. Reed was clearly inside all the way from turn four, through one and two, and down the back stretch. Sometimes you just have to give up the position. That's how I saw it, anyway, and I'm no fan of Reed's, though I think he's a great driver. Almost the exact same thing happened a few years ago when Danny Wood passed Kevin Reamme on the back straight and Ramey tried to block him and spun off and threw a fit. The crowd was on Danny's side that night. I think because of Reed's reputation, he gets blamed even when things aren't his fault. All that aside, what a fantastic show it was last night! I'd almost convinced myself that the difference between 360s and 410s wasn't much, but I think that's just because I haven't seen a 410 in a while. Man, they were standing on those things coming out of four and it was awesome!
