An argument you can not win!!!!

Apparently both parties in this case like to show their butts in public but more so the racer. "Priviledged" racers tend to do that IMHO.

Rick is a jerk but come on, getting out of your car on the starting line. Give me a break!

My friend had his car back out of the beams in vegas and red lit him.He went to the tower not knowing what happened and found out they they have cameras on a split screen on your tire in the beams and on the tree also the 7 second timeout timer on the screen .His car clearly backed up about an inch out of the stage beam causing the red light.Cool stuff,no questions I wonder if any other tracks use this?

Justin and his family we're pitted right next to us at the D5 LODRS event in Denver, CO last month.

I have to admit, it didn't start out very well. But by the end of the weekend, we got to know Justin and his family very well. They are a very nice family and we're a pleasure to talk to (and pit next to) all weekend.

I can't speak for everyone here - but at least Justin had the guts to confront Rick Stewart - no matter if he was right or wrong. It may not have been the smartest thing to do (get out of the car on the starting line), but at least his voice (complaint) was heard.

They are a very nice family and very good at what they do.

Keep up the fight Justin!

Thanks,

I agree with Ryan. Plus, like Ed said, " you back out and your red lit". Happens all the time. He is lucky they didnt fine him.

whos says they did not fine him...... i am really interested to see what happens. they fine the big boys for doing that!!!!
I have never seen some jump out on the starting line in the sportsman ranks.
Well i guess there is a first time for everything....

If you got to drag race central and read the race recap... there is a photo of Justin's car about 20ft in front of the line.... then the photo i posted he is almost back to the burn out box.......

Did anyone see the whole thing? give us the info.... what happened...

Wonder if the chic in front of the car satisfied her itch???????

The chick in front of the car is Justin's Mom. Justin's parents are nice folks. It is unfortunate but, the rules are the rules and generaly for good reason.

Looks like the ESPN camera guy was going to try and give us something interesting to watch for a change. That would far better TV than the usual pedal fest from the silly cars as WJ calls them. I would have really loved to have watched STEWARTS DRAMA in this situation. He probably was throwing his arms around and doing his starting line dramam dance. UGH!!
