Keep hearing about the grabbing and fighting , but no details as to what,why, etc. ; Why would anybody grab Kory , he's not exactly a big kid ? just wondering....

Discuss all you want as long as it doesn't turn into an argument and everyone posts like adults.
The threads that were deleted today were very childish.

To be honest as a racer myself, its one of the fairest tracks around here. Sure there are missed calls from time to time but that happens everywhere. As for fights there wasnt one i was aware of in the pits and i was down there pretty much the whole night. I also could care less if the sprints race at the valley, they are always flying through the pits without a care in the world. Ive been inches from getting hit myself from one and ive seen a kid come close to getting hit once also.

I find this hard to believe that he got grabbed by the neck, I have a feeling he was just making stuff up bc he was mad that he got black flagged for not getting in his spot in the lineup after they gave him numerous chances too. And after
This incident I believe the sprint cars should have to use racecievers too

Ya know come to think of i think i do remember than repeatedly telling him over the raceceiver as well to get in line. There i NO excuse for a sprint car driver not to have a raceceiver especially when the guys driving 4 cylinders and pure stocks all have them

I have been saying this since we have been required to have raceceivers. Why should they get the privilege to decide if they have to wear them or not. But i know someone will argue and say they know how to line up better or they are not a regular class. From what I have seen they are just like every other class and they should have them. Case and point last weekend with all the extra laps they made to try to get them to line up correctly.

Exclamation

i understand why kory was upset, he had run 2nd for 2 laps before the caution. but as a driver you have to pic your battles at times. kory had a fast car, they were only putting him back to 3rd not the tail. he pasted for 2nd once with no problem, he could do it again. if he had keep his cool just restart 3rd and move forward. would of panned out much better at the payout window an for the OVSCA points. And hince we wouldnt all be talking about this.

I have been racing for over lets just say a lot of years I have seen a lot of bad calls. this isnt as bad as it seems but there arnt that many sprint cars in the ohio valley.why would you run off a racer?there is 1 guy there this is his words not mine he said QUOTE if your boy wasnt a kid I would put him down.what ever that means.I do have a lot of respect for wayne taking on this chore to run a race track.just want to know who makes the calls there .wayne said he didnt know what the problem was someone in the press box made the call to throw the black flag.
