Opinion: Confrontation


It is a common seen in NASCAR. Drivers and teams confronting each other over things that happen on the track. Some of the best moments in NASCAR have taken place after a wreck, and its pretty fair to say that fans enjoy seeing these altercations. Come on lets face it, due you blame them for being upset after so many hours of hard work have been put into one race.

The reason for this discussion stems from the incident between Kevin Harvick and a member of the #10 crew which resulted in Delana Harvick and an official receiving minor injuries. (If you did not watch the race Kevin Harvick drove up to the #10 getting him lose which resulted in Riggs hitting the wall.)

Of course, the finger pointing has begun and NASCAR is in the process of solving the situation which will probably include a penalty and suspension. What is your opinion on being able to confront the person whom wrecked you, and was Harvick to blame for Riggs fate?

Harvick has been known for doing these things. So, I don't feel bad for him but its unfotunate that his wife was involved.

wish it would have been on camera.

Drivers getting into arguements is one of the most exciting aspects of racing. The emotion is important. What happened is not liked but I'm sure that there was more to the story than we will hear.

In the immortal word of Tommy Wierdo, "Rubbin's racin' Harry." If you have people fingering Nascar for any altercation you will have a situation similar to what goes on in our gov't with trying to please everyone. Lets face it, racing is an outlaw sport that requires grit and "bastard" attitude. Thats what has made it great in the past as well as today. Stopping this by suspensions and penalties for every little thing will take away form it. Lighten up, let em race, and stop nitpicking rules. LET EM FIGHT IT OUT. (plus I would like to see Kurt Busch toe to toe with Stewart. Down goes Busch,Down goes Busch.) Harvick is a woman.
