JUST WANTED TO START THE POST

I have checked many racing related web sites trying to find the rule the states when given the BLACK FLAG you are to go into the infield and start doing three sixty's trying to run over the track promoter and his son .

Where was security guard "DAVE" at !!!!!!!!!!!!!

That sounds like a good way to make a promoter go to a different career path and say to heck with those drivers.

Victorville was stupid! It was the biggest waste of time I have ever seen. Two days of tin can racing to get to a sprint race that was cut short. It was also the most disorganised thing I have ever seen. First, last and only time I will go to that track, unless another organization puts on the show.

acgoins,..

Fill us in! what happened? who was black flagged? and why? and was he/she successfull in running over the promoter. Inquiring minds want to know

But......the real question is: "How were the Victorville Hotties?" Surely there must of been a ton of "eye candy" to behold!!

About half way through the race(lap 10), race leader John Aden comes up on lap traffic,(Dan Tederick) and was having a hard time getting around him. This gave Blake Miller time to catch the leader, while passing him Tederick moves up the race track and with no were to go, Blake gets put in the wall. Now Blake is furious and has to go to the back were his good ole buddy Dan is. Blake goes behind Dan gasses it, pushes Dan around, Dan slows down gets behind Blake, rides up his fuel tank, they do this acouple of times, then they come around to the flag stand and the black flag is waved to both drivers. Dan Tederick puts the hammer down and does 2 or 3 donuts in the infield 10 feet away from the promoter Mike and the officials. Both drivers go to the pits, big argument begins, both teams were escorted away from the track. Thats what I saw.

UH!!! Is that all?

It is the new spoiled brat style of sportsmanship. Setting a good example for the kids in attendance.

Actually, I am wondering if charges of assault or assault with a deadly weapon could brought up. I guess that is a question that Nadine Gardner could answer.

I watched the video of the race at realfast.com and it confirmed what I saw from the stands. Miller was movin up real fast and looking like he was going to win that race. He gets deep into turn 4 passing lapped cars and Tedwreck drives into him and puts him in the wall. Almost looked malicious to me. When they were lining back up( lining up is seemingly a real challenge at that track ) Miller wags his tail a little close to Tedwreck to tell him he didn't like the way he was driving. Tedwreck then drove front wheels all up and over Miller's tail and pushed him into other cars. Miller then got beside Tedwreck and barked at him a couple of times with the throttle and seemed done with the argument. I don't think Miller deserved the black flag and had reason to be a little pissed. Tedwreck did and proved it with the reckless infield display. He should sell his car.

Someone should consider giving Aden a try in a 410, the guy hit his marks consistently and drove a good race. He was fun to watch.

I'm a Perris sprint car fan from Escondido and it was my first time at Victorville. The Victorville organization was a little overwhelmed by the high car count, but for a small track I liked it. Nice banks, wide turns, lots of room for two grooves, very racey track. Despite all the problems and being shortened due to time constraints that feature was a great sprint car race while it was being run. I was very disappointed that it was cut short though, long way to drive for a short show. Perris rules!!!!!!!!

Went to Turkey Night at Irwindale too. Turkey Night belongs at Perris. That's all!!!!!!!!!!
