Layton from the front and Rahmer from the rear to sweep the wobbles.

Kudos to the posse on defending their turf!

Normally I wouldn't defend Mr. Montooth but, in this case, your dead wrong...Go watch the video, the 15 was getting smoked on the high side while riding the middle groove. Monteeth was holding a straight line on top when the 15 changed lanes. IMO, it was a racing accident, nothing more nothing less.

Next time, git your facts straight, college boy... :~/

Opinions may vary...

It was Schatz's fault. He was setting himself up for the corner and just went a little too high. It was a racing deal. If you watched the video and you still think it was Monteith's fault you got serious issues LOL Glad Donny and everyone else is ok.

watch the video. it is posted on youtube. no way that was montieth's fault schatz came up the track and hit him.

What did Montieth do wrong, hold his line?

No,He has a Pennsylvania address.

I thought we had some d......kheads in Australia but guys trying to turn racing incidents into a blame game over there make some of ours look smart.Congrats to Fred and great to see all the guys get out of the big one ok.

man both sides of this issue taking it awfully personal.

looked to me like they both went the others direction and just met in the middle - and I'm not partial to either - after all, they are 410's! lmao. j/k

Just looked like a true accident. neither was in the wrong at all - the guy low didnt see the guy high - and the guy high had no reason to think the guy low would come up like that - just unfortunate shit that happens.

we have all see wrecks just like that - where afterwards you cant say either was at fault or any wrong doing. just racing hard. like on a 3 lane highway when a car on the outside lane and a car in the inside both go to turn to the middle lane - how many times has THAT happened? lol (lots -prob to all of us). In this case - the only thing to take from it is it's great they are all ok - but unfortunate that so much costly equipment was trashed.

btw actually cool that yet again the Posse kicked ass. WoO need more races in WG/PA otherwise the Posse domination really could turn into a dynasty. But the posse haters still have a valid point as well - at no other track in the nation do they have remotely the kind of CONSISTENT success they have against the traveling circus as they do at WG. either way - no matter ones preference - all fun stuff to watch, witness, and read about. The Posse domination at WG is actually a great thing all round - sare I say especially for the WoO. Little is as interesting as their trips to Central PA!

I LIKE BIG HAULERS!!!!!!

Boy I don't know how anyone can watch the video and come to that conclusion. Looks to me like Montieth came down at least as much as Donny moved up. IMO it's the trailing cars responsibility to avoid the contact. Just because you shove your nose up alongside the RR doesn't make it your territory. The guy in front can't see that it's there and every car moves up a little at the end of the straights to set themselves up for corner entry. It's not like Donny made a drastic right turn. Looked to me like Monteith was trying to follow Leppo through on the outside and went up a little and hit a bump that shot him back to the left a little. At the grove, if your not alongside the car in front of you before the end of the straight, it's a good idea to back off a little.

For the record, I'm not really a fan of either driver. Sure am glad no one was hurt though.
