POSTED 7-19-08 WHEN RACING ISN'T RACING

What can I say about this deal? As a reporter of racing, Drags, Stock Car and etc., I try to stay in the middle on the road. I also try to like all drivers. But I do not condone using a car as a weapon. This is NOT racing. Drag guys seem to have more class than us stock car guys. Why is that I ask? The #10, Joey Stancil was leading the race and #48 Anthony Russell hit him in the rear end going into the turn (a NO-NO) not going into a turn, maybe coming out? Then #10 Joey Stancil later into the race hits #48 Anthony Russell in the rear. So, it should be even Right? But here comes #48 Anthony Russell across the middle of the track and in the wrong direction and drives right into the drivers door area of #10 Joey Stancil. Both cars crash into the wall but that isn't it, while Joey is hurt bad from the CHEAP SHOT of Anthony Russell, Anthony gets out of his car and takes several other CHEAP SHOTS at Joey with his fist while Joey is still seat belted in his car with a bone coming out of his leg and in much pain. Last year I saw Anthony try to hit Tony Rothe with his fist while Tony was still seat belted in his car. Is this a continous problem with the same driver? I have been around stock racing for many years and know many drivers that have gotten mad and have won many races but never used their car as a weapon. I know that Anthony and his guys will read this and will not like what they read. You will get mad at me and that is OK. But look guys it is now two years in a roll that your guy has been in fights with different drivers. So it looks like it is your driver that can't control his anger? Maybe anger management class would help and I am not trying to be funny. Suppose Anthony had hit him more in the door and killed him? For what a trophy and $150.00? I have nothing against any of you drivers, we are all friends, but someone is going to get killed. This sport is dangerous enough without this. If you post about this keep it clean or I will remove you. Thanks Odell (also post your real name please)
