Guest TheDeerHunter Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 In the race Sunday NASCAR should have black flaged him! After he got spun out, instead of staying up out of the way and waiting for the cars to pass before he turns around. He turns into on comming traffic and gets right in the way and continued to back up while cars are going by to the right and left of him. Now I understand that no one wants to go a lap down but he could have got the lucky dog pass in the next caution. NASCAR should have black flaged him or sent him to the garage. NASCAR is all about safety and wasn't Robby Gordon the reason why NASCAR made racing back to the yellow against the rules. I can't stand him and he is a danger on the race track and I don't know how he made it into NASCAR. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[ QUOTE ] I can't stand him [/ QUOTE ] Seems to me this is the real issue...I believe there were other cars during this race in the same situations, but only Robby Gordon should have been black flagged?

Chrud Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: Robby Gordon should have been black flaged! All the drivers spin around again after being spun. I didn't really see a problem. The spotters and drivers get paid big bucks, that is just part of their job, to avoid wrecks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MUDRUNNER Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: Robby Gordon should have been black flaged! THATS JUST HOW ROBBY IS.HE IS A PRETTY SLOPPY DRIVER AND HE'S A WEAPON TO EVERYONE RACING NEXT TO HIM.I'M SURE HE TICKED OFF A FEW DRIVERS WITH THAT MOVE.

Chrud Posted October 26, 2004 Report Share Posted October 26, 2004 Re: Robby Gordon should have been black flaged! But, then you would have had to black flag everybody in the fall Loudon race last fall. When DJ spun, they were all still racing full bore at him, including 2 or 3 of them almost hitting him. That was dumb, right? I don't care for Robby Gordon, but other drivers have made mistakes too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
