How many wrecked race cars and door checking people down the straightaways on restarts does it take to draw a black flag or atleast even a warning?

All I got either wrecked or damaged by the same Crate Late Model yet the dude got no warning and certainly not a black flag. Where is the Line?
Didn't know Super Late Models were running street stock either? Its pretty obvious when you can coast from the flag stand into turn 1, give gas on the apex of the corner, rinse and repeat, that something is not right there. The rest of the guys do not coast from the flag stand and run further down the straight before they let off, yet cant keep up with better handling cars..... lol?
Please get the fans some more speakers around turns 1 and alteast one on the backstretch, if not Turn 2 as well. You really cant hear the interviews, qual times, or announcements. The track is great, would just be nice to hear the announcer.

I just wanted to confirm who you were talking about before I replied to your comment. Thanks for paying such close attention to the car though. I thought that is what you were supposed to do. Give me a break. The man has been racing for 15 years, give or take, and has never dominated. Now that it is his time to shine, you want to call it illegal. Have you ever thought that the motor alone won't win you a race. It takes more than just a motor. Maybe the driving skills played a factor in that win. Besides, if he was running a super late motor then how has he passed all of the inspections at Friendship and Rolling Thunder? Don't be so quick to be a player hater!
If you are implying that Keith Holder was beating and banging on cars then obviosuly you haven't watched Keith race a lot. Keith drives his line and if you want to put your nose down on him then you can't expect him to back off. I don't blame him, I would not back off either I personally thought it was great racing. Who likes to watch a race where everyone stays in single file and never attempts to pass? From my angle it appeared that someone liked Keith's colors on their car better than Keith liked his own, because from what I saw they tried to take all the paint home with them. Funny thing was, I was in the grandstands and after Keith spun around, the crowd calmed down. From what I can tell, the crowd loved the racing. Afterall rubbing is racing!!http://localracechat.com/forums/images/icons/icon12.gif
Congratulations to Jimmy Watson on his win and to Keith for one heck of a try.

Sorry Hogg, I didn't mean to sound hateful. I read that after I submitted it and I realized that it didn't sound so nice. But yes Jimmy is who I was referring to and I failed to note that in the first paragraph.http://localracechat.com/forums/images/icons/icon7.gif

You might want to take a relook at the Crate Late model bit. Here is what was said....

My family raced with Keith 15 years ago back in the Sportsmen class at Friendship. He is far from a wrecker. I was not implying that he was at all but rather someone else was being a tad bit rough and cause quite a bit of unnecessary carnage. You should be able to figure out who.

I'm sorry I misunderstood the part about Keith. I thought you were implying that those guys listed were rough housing others. I am glad that you clarified because after several conversations with others, we all thought you were implying that Keith was beating and banging. I know exactly who you are talking about was doing the beating and banging.
The other part about Watson, I am almost certain that I read that correctly. I just think he deserves a chance. He has been racing for a very long time and it is about time that we see him in victory lane. I don't believe he is illegal at all, I just think that enough trial and error will teach anyone a lesson and Jimmy has definitely been through enough trial and error. He has passed all inspections at three different tracks this year so I don't know why one would assume that he is running a super late motor.
