Yeah, I think it would be worth exploring. I felt his comments were disproportionate to last weeks event. I can think of a few other last minute passes that support this possibility.

Agreed, good response. Very necessary though. You are right, mistakes do happen. That’s why the apology is needed. I think McAdoo learned from the situation. He probably won’t take that risk again.

Probably ought to amend that to those in the process of rendering medical aid.

P.s. I’d be in favor of a rule to the effect that if you hit a medic (including roosting) your dq’d regardless of “fault”

Don, I agree that the crew didn’t handle it well, but, McAdoo can see them all on the track in front of him, the tough block, people running around, etc. Maybe he could have slowed a little and gone higher in the turn? Much like traffic laws, you can’t ... more »

Wait, let’s get the whole lap counting, white flag thing down first. Then we can work on inspection

Seriously though, if this was the first time for Vince, the vitriol here wouldn’t be this bad. Unfortunately, he has a decade of questionable ... more »

TX, well said. They’ve done a fantastic job. Great season this year! Made even more amazing since it’s being done in the year of COVID craziness.

Last I saw this thread had quieted down. Now 5 pages later, what did I miss?

You’re blaming DC for your username getting deleted?!? This statement alone destroys any credibility you may have had. I’d explain to you the difference between VitalMX and MXSports but, you wouldn’t believe me and you are not engaging anyway. DC has ... more »

It must be a nightmare for MXSports to be putting this together. Particularly with having to hit a target that moves day to day. Lucky for us we have great people for the job.

Yep, Agreed they did a great job.

Stangkag, Very cool!
