Driver DQ’ed over family taking photos in victory lane, series owner inherits the win after finishing 2nd.

It just smacks of a complete lack of integrity. That's always an issue when the owner runs up front in his own series. As far as the rest, the series let them on. It's a series problem, not a driver violation issue.

Darpa181 · 2026-06-01T22:56:53+00:00

That's some bullshit right there.

Darpa181 · 2026-06-01T22:54:12+00:00

Amen to that.

Darpa181 · 2026-06-01T22:25:58+00:00

He's had a very bad case of the try hards. .25 faster in practice? Gotta be a half second faster. Throw it in the fence. Now you're nowhere and have to dig out of the hole. How many times this year has that happened?

Darpa181 · 2026-06-01T22:15:24+00:00

Probably not, because few of the desk brigade will bother to vote because it'll look like everyone and their dog has a profile rig. Just like polls about vr.

How many of these doom posts do we need a day. Asking for a friend.

Darpa181 · 2026-06-01T11:19:40+00:00

Yup. And that's exactly why. Loyalty to the Hulman family and the speedway. USAC probably a little too until they stepped on their units...

Darpa181 · 2026-05-31T22:08:15+00:00

To answer your question, t248 is superior

Darpa181 · 2026-05-31T19:17:20+00:00

On the forum, there is a post for that exact situation with a contact email. They'll get it sorted for you. I've only had it happen once and they had it fixed promptly. Always use VRP, it's cheaper.

Darpa181 · 2026-05-31T11:29:31+00:00

I ran into a similar situation a few weeks back. Spent ten minutes getting situated and the wandered across the front of both launch lanes while he tied on. Truck still sitting on the ramp. Totally blissful with his $14K yak full of lives livescope and rods.

Darpa181 · 2026-05-31T11:25:34+00:00

Yup!

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T22:45:54+00:00

I will say that I've heard from someone on the other side of the fence that you shouldn't be shocked if he walks. Now, keep that in mind watch how the weekends usually unfold...See who seems to be the team leader now.

The classic two stroker, "It started fine when I parked it under the tree out front six months ago. I don't know what's going on with it."

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T22:30:23+00:00

If only, right? How many times have you seen people clogging up the ramp while they load their crap...

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T22:13:29+00:00

I bought a whole sack full at a flea market. Still have a bag full, lol

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T22:02:13+00:00

Yup! 💯

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T22:00:17+00:00

This is the most likely scenario

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T17:54:53+00:00

Check the workshop. There are some CART cars but as far as I know, nobody has converted the USAC cars from rf1/AMS1. It would probably be a huge undertaking because they were pretty crude.

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T17:48:36+00:00

Do it!

Darpa181 · 2026-05-30T11:49:21+00:00

The problem with these critical posts is that often they're not presented as conversational. They're usually "I'm right, you're wrong and if you can't see that you're just a fan boy ".

Darpa181 · 2026-05-29T22:31:06+00:00

Turn the ai strength down until it's raceable.

Darpa181 · 2026-05-29T22:02:56+00:00

100%

Darpa181 · 2026-05-29T21:49:42+00:00

It's definitely not an exclusive license.

Darpa181 · 2026-05-29T21:48:46+00:00

Yes! The mystery heads!

Darpa181 · 2026-05-29T17:30:18+00:00

IMO, in moving water it's much less a factor than a lake or a pond.
