When you decide to get off your ass and attend the racetrack right near your home you can have an opinion until then you should really shut your yap. You have one of the finest winged sprint car weekly series in the country just miles from your home and you dont even go watch. Instead you mooch free radio broadcasts from the WoO while real race fans are shelling out their hard earned cash to support local racing. There is no excuse for your lack of support.

Your thinking is obviously soft and mushy from looking at things from the bottom of a glass of booze. Time to dry out a bit, eh?

I believe Henry "de-Railed" you.

Really? Think again. The guy is out of touch with reality.

Nothing has changed!

true, but like he just said..He is a human and let his emotions get the best of him. people make mistakes. move on..

I agree with sprint_fan55. People (all of us) make mistakes in life and it's time to move on. Whether it's Brad or Cody these young men have the potential to be the drivers that we remember 20 years from now as two of the best in the "good old days". I did not see the Brad/Craig incident, so I will not comment, but if it went down as posted on this meassage board, he should have his hands slapped. However, I have known Brad and his family since he was born (yes I am bias) and it refreshing to see that his career has progressed the "old school" way and he HAS earned everthing he has accomplished todate! Brad has a bright future so give him a break....Just to set the record straight, I have been around racing since 1972 as a driver, car owner, offical and most of all a sprint car fan. I know the emotions that are experienced and yes I have made a ass out of myself a time or two.

As far as seeing Brad "in the pits" at Osky, all Kahne cars unloaded a block north of the racetrack on the street. I know it's still considered "pits", but I don't think it could have been that big of tantrum. We certainly don't scold Tony Stewart when he throws USAC officials, We don't scold Tiger Woods when he launches a club after missing a putt, do we?
One of the very first sprintcar races I ever attended was a Saturday night in Knoxville back in 85 or 86 I think. That night saw Randy Smith and Terry McCarl get together in a heat race on the back shute, with McCarl spinning out. Once Terry was restarted, he promptly drove up beside Randy on the parade lap on the front shute and cranked a hard left into Randy and thus tore up 2 good racecars.
I think Terry was suspended, but my point is that it's been done before, and will be done again. Does TK in California a few years ago ring a bell? C'mon, suspend them for a race or two, and let 'em race.
Bye bye, Hardhat!
