Was disappointed to see TMACs decision making on Saturday night. I'm seated closer to turn 4 and saw McCarl speeding up. My initial thought was he was pissed about something. I saw Terry pass Scottie and slam on the brakes to cut him off, leaving him zero room.
Despite what Lori or Terry said on facebook, I did not see or hear Scottie hit the gas after Terry cut him off. He left him zero room and why he flipped. I know at least one official saw what happened b/c he was pointing at Terry. I'm guessing Terry did not intend for him to flip but that was the unintended results.
I'm not really a fan of either so I don't really have a "dog in the fight". NOT that I don't like them.
IMO Terry's reaction caused someone to flip, not during the race, after the race and should be penalized.

I think that he should have been penalized too. Terry being Terry, remember the time he threw the potted plant at a guy in a wheelchair!

I was in turn 1. I missed everything but the very end of Scottie coming to a rest and Terry was all the way down at the end of the front straightaway. We had no replay, so I was oblivous to what happened. I figured Terry did something though---a fan in the stands ran down the steps and started screaming at Terry's car while he sat there. Not sure if he heard him, but I thought it was funny. Guess I missed it all. This explains it. :)

While that may be the case (and entirely possible), sprint car racing needs to put an end to pulling this crap after the checkers (and in a B main nonetheless). Someone is going to get hurt. Whether Scotty was on the gas, Terry needs to not act like a toddler, he's sixty years old.

I didn't see it so I really have no opinion other than Terry is the commen denominator when it comes to this kinda crap. It was different when he was good but now that he's just a back marker its getting mostly sad lol. It's kinda embarrassing actually.
