Call it how I see it. Kudo's to Brown for being classier than me, but no mistake, race was all Brown until Kinser, who didn't enter turn 1 on the cushion, and drifted up the track to the cushion and made contact with Brown's left front putting him in the wall. Does that sound better to you?

haha you can make it sound anyway you like. Doesn't matter to me really. But it does appear that contact to the left front (as you describe it) isn't quite how it appears on the video. Nor is your description of who entered where on the cushion quite fitting with the video. In fact, you are just flat, plain, well, umm, wrong...on both accounts. 4:50 or so on the video will confirm this.
Someday maybe racing will change and anyone who has ever been a lap down or slower than the fast guy will just have to stay home. Good luck with your vision of racing as well as getting those new frames for your eye glasses. Have fun.
The greatest knowledge is to know that you know nothing
at all.

" but forget Shane Stewart won 1 race in the #83 car a few years ago"
Very well said. Seems people forgot what he did full time on the tour.

There were other "good" drivers in that Roth car before and after Shane that couldn`t win. Maybe just maybe it wasn`t the drivers!

To say Shane could not compete after not winning 4-5 years ago is not fair. I think you could argue that Daryn Pittman would be in the same boat. He won races but nothing huge. Then you put him in the KKR car where he is comfortable and he is having a career year. I think Shane would be good with KKR personally.

This sport isn't fair. I'd agree Shane Stewart has been impressive recently, but Darrah is also 12-14 years younger. Again, I'm not a Darrah fan (nothing against him either), I'm just pointing it out. I believe Joe Darrah helps out KKR and I absolutely know Cody doesn't run all the same equipment as Pittman. Not that the equipment is any less, only pointing out that the #4 team looks like they expirement more than the #9 and I'd bet if it works on the 4, it goes to the 9 immediately. If your not building on the future and your absolutely looking for results, I'd say there are choices better than Darrah and Stewart. Again, give me Stevie Smith, he's proven he has it for 25 years, still young enough to make a run.
