Here is a short clip leading up to the incident in today's race (June 7, 2014). I'm too far away to see much, but you can get somewhat of a feel for it. My thanks to all the Vee drivers who spent the race having to watch their mirrors to see the faster cars coming up on them from behind.

I saw Manning's video. He was right behind the incident. Looks to me like Larry never saw the continental coming up on his right and he continued to move right to set up for T-9. The continental had no where to go. Glad everyone is OK because the FC could have very easily flipped over multiple times.

My thanks to all the Vee drivers who spent the race having to watch their mirrors to see the faster cars coming up on them from behind. In today's race I was leading the FV race when the lead FC came upon me going into 9. I gave him the corner and ran wide to be safe. Despite me doing everything I could to make things safe, he STILL ran me off the rack and into the dirt where I bounced and slid until the exit of 10, where I re entered in 3rd. Wish these guys would extend the same courtesy we provide them. Me thinks there is a bit of looking down from their high towers upon the peasants, er, I mean lowly FV drivers.

Let's just say it really sucked for all parties involved. The Stewards determined it was a racing incident after speaking to all involved. We both lost our weekends second race and both have tons of damage. Plus everyone else lost half of their race stuck behind a pace car. I was just doing as told in the drivers meeting sticking to my line. I wish it never happened, but it did. Please don't try and blame one driver we both had a part in it. It sucks and I just want to repair my car and move on.
