If I was the car owner I would be docking his pay $700, no need for that BS.

Car owner gets 60% of 30,000, that's about 16,000. What's not to like?

Guess I am just old school, puller into victory lane and high five the owner and crew guys. Don't really need to see burnouts and doughnuts made famous from Napcar. Hey, just my opinion and I am not the car owner so I guess at the end of the day if those guys are ok fixing wrecked cars after a victory I wish them well.

Me too. Tearing things up for no reason just never seemed smart to me. But we've always had to pay our own bills out of our own pocket and never had unlimited funds either. I might not care if money didn't matter.

Here!! Here!!! I have been saying this for years!!
If the drivers had to pay for this equipment, they would not be tearing it up!!! All this is, is a disrespect for car owners!!

I was never really a big TK fan before (never hated him either) but after all of that I am starting to become a fan. Yeah he tore equipment up but hey, it seemed like none of the team members were mad. I like it when driver show a little emotion after a big win like TK and Brad Sweet at the Kings Royal. I doubt the owner had a problem with it considering they just won one of the biggest races of the year.

I love the passion.....I wish more drivers would show this type of passion when winning races. He didn't mean to flip the car. Kyle Larson did this same thing in a midget last year after a big win.
Keep it up TK!!!!! 2014 is going to be a big year for the TK Express!

If any of you idiots who think this is a big deal stopped and thought with what clearly limited number of brain cells you posess you might realize how much shit has been torn up just trying to have a SHOT at winning $30K. At that point you MAY realize that your comments are completely irrelevant and unnecessary. If you don't enjoy watching someone like TK do what he does do the rest of us a favor and free up space for those that do by attending something with far less potential for awesomeness.

This is great publicity for sprintcar racing. It's on national news casts in Australia and has over 50,000 viral hits in just the last 36 hours! So he bent up a wing, big deal! David Mills will probably pay for the wing anyway since he put on such a good show and enterained the crowd after what was an average one-lane track around the bottom in the A.
Good enterainment for a capacity crowd!

Great guy, great race, great celebration! Hands down the most fun driver to watch right now. He did how many donuts, flipped, and when they did tip the car back up he tried to puncture the wing with the checkered flag like he just slayed a f****** dragon. I do not think the owner cares one bit. He finished top 2 in the 3 big races down there.

Well there's very few guy's that can drive the wheels off a car.
So if your ever lucky enough to have one of them guy's drive your car, you better be prepared to buy some new wheels every now and then!

Funny to me that we expect our athletes to be Super Human in their performance but then to have no excitement once they accomplish their goal. I'll take that performance over a slow, in-audible Sammy podium speech any day of the week. Not to just bash Sammy, I've seen him pretty hyped over a win before too.
Good for TK! Also I'm guessing none of the complainers go tell TK what they think of the celebration at the track, cause I believe he may have a few words back cause I think he's a pretty outspoken person in general so the celebration fits his personality.

This is nothing but good for the sport. Any damage done to that car was easily made up in t-shirt sales!!!!!

Great point. Actaully now they could probably sell the wing for more than what they paid for it on ebay. Have TK sign it and sale each side panel. You get your money back if not more, you buy another wing and get on with your life.

Hell, they'll probably be able to auction it off for more money then it costs, after he wins the World of Outlaws title this year!
