However, after watching the replay, I guess you could call it a "racing deal"... But live, it really pissed me off, & I was rooting for Macri to pass Brown in the feature... he did that & MUCH more! Smile

I got a great seat (one of the last reserved seats left) by calling on the phone... worth the 5 hr. drive!

National Open might have a slightly better field, but Tusky has a more fun vibe, with the Fair & huge crowd. National Open is all about Posse  vs. WoO, & if WoO guys win, everybody is pissed off.....



Slightly better field?

Brown wasn't leading the race!

Seems you can't handle the truth....wink



Was he in front of Macri?  Yes, so he was leading Macri.  I only saw a short clip of the incident.  However you slice it the car in front of the other can go where he wants when he wants. The guy behind has to find the way around the person in front without crashing.  I like both Macri and Brown

You better think again.  

The National Open gets the Outlaws + a good Number of the All Stars and the posse.  You will probably have 9 of the top 10 drivers in the country at Williamsgrove.   Yes, a lot better field.  It may be a little smaller, but from top to bottom much better field.

And with the WoO format, the winners for most every race will come off the front row.

He is not my hero and no Macri was right that was a racing deal.  Brian is the leader he can go wherever he wants to go while leading a race.  I would think that no matter who was in the lead.  The leader has the whole track to work with top to bottom....it is the second place drivers job to get around the first place driver.



He wasn't the leader, but that doesn't matter because you can't be wrong. Ha Ha Ha.

If he was in front of Macri he was leading Macri.  In turn he has the track and Macri has to find his way around him without contact.

Plus, Strawser's hero Brian  Brown cut off Macri in the heat & Macri wrecked trying to avoid him. Macri qualified for the A cause he won on Thursday...He was a good sport & called it a "racing thing" in the interview, but I thought it was a dickhead move by Brown.
Heroic win IMHO & poetic justice! Smile

 



That was clean slider and Macri drove right into Browns rear half-way down the back stretch. Ended up wrecking himself and then "he acted like a little girl" afterwards by his own admission. I like Macri too but he routinely makes aggressive moves just like the 1 Brown did on him in the heat race.

The backstretch outside gaurdrail comes slightly down the track from the turn to the old opening. Brown was following the rail , Macri was basically driving straight , not up into Brown . That's why it was called a racing accident.

Macri had to slow down to avoid wrecking Brown, ended up wrecking himself....

I already said a few posts back: "However, after watching the replay, I guess you could call it a "racing deal"... But live, it really pissed me off"...... like when you're on the highway & somebody cuts in front of you & then goes slow? Doesn't that piss you off too? I don't think Macri could have slowed down in time to avoid contact, but what do I know? He called it a racing deal in the interview, so thats that

He's young, he's very talented and he can be very aggressive.  All those things will get you noticed, it won't be long before he hits the road.

Which ones? The Bering, Hormuz, or Gibraltar?

The ones that are normally very slippery due to lack of H20.

Couldn't have been the Bering Straits then, plenty of water.... sometimes 30 feet over the crab boats on Deadliest Catch!

Unless it was 10,000 years ago when it was a "land bridge"....
