Late last week I was gonna ask the question when was the last time Schatz bent his car and I hear he did it twice tonight

 So the modified question is ,previous to Oct 13th, when was the last time Schatz wrecked a car and when was the last time he was upside down?

A little off topic but was surprised to see the chevy back.

Both of those incidents looked fairly minor to me.   Did his car actually get bent?   Apparently he did finish the race and was credited with 13th.   One thing's for sure, Donny bending anything is extremely rare.   Can't remember the last time he was upside down either.

After the 2nd incident, Schatz's right side nerf bar was bent in.  I think they also said on the broadcast that the drag link was broke on the left front.  They managed to get that fixed & get him back out to minimize the damage in the points battle.  

It was a wild feature back in the pack that's for sure.

I have to say the Gravel donut was impressive. Right hand turn 360 to stay under power. Not sure if Schatz appreciated the 41 pushing him around after the fact but it's a race deal. Then the movement of Schatz pushing the 99 back onto its wheels. No one hurt, very little damage and one of the coolest get togethers I've ever seen.

It has to be hard enough to watch out for cars in front of you but when you get attacked from behind your helpless.

I have a question: Does the WoO have the "If you are involved in 2 yellow flags in the same event and you are out rule"?  Or is that just in California.

I dont know the answer to your question but I will question the wording. I think I know what you mean but I would be fairly confident no racing has that rule. If you CAUSE 2 yellows I know of tracks that will remove you for that race but being involved in isnt your fault most times and would not justify disqualification.

In California, if your engine quits running, you are charged with the caution.  2 stops and you are done.  The car that caused the caution may continue and not be charged, but the car collected will be charged.
