Un-safe track re-entry is an automatic 1 week suspension. We tried doing warnings, it didn't change anything as far as getting guys to stop a second and align and get going. 1 week has helped slightly, but honestly, probably should be more because weekly guys are still re-entering with a care in the world for other racers on the track.

Hunter Root received a 1 week suspension for riding backwards and hitting Wheels. I received a 1 week suspension for crashing and taking out a leader. Phil rolls a jump and costs you 2 positions and gets a 1 week suspension. It all seems fair to me.

Are you really trying to say right now pulling on the track and ALMOST hitting someone deserves the same punishment as riding on the track backwards and hitting somebody head on... :lol: You're fucking high Devin.

Technically Hunter was getting up from a crash and tried riding backwards instead of re-aligning himself straight. If Atom wasn't paying attention or being careful he definitely could have hit Phil and it would have been the same exact scenario as Lakewood 2015. It doesn't matter if there was contact or not, Phil broke the rules by making an unsafe race decision that resulted in a leader losing multiple positions. So yes, I must be high because it deserves the same penalty. However, it's pointless arguing with someone as brain dead as you Travis, considering what happened with you and Atom this past season at Lakewood.

Without further arguments, it doesn't matter if there's contact or not. Unsafe track re-entry that results in a leader crashing and/or losing positions should be penalized.

Shack, not trying to start anything but I dont think Rush deserved a penalty for that.

You block passed someone the other week and stayed on two wheels and that is basically what happened to you.

A T-bone would have resulted in both you and Rush down on the ground, which at that point is not racing and probably would have been penalized.

I'll usually defend Shack, but I don't think Rush deserves a penalty there as well. Yes, it was a dirty pass, but nothing to get penalized over. If Rush gets penalized for that, then rF will get bombarded with penalties from every block pass every week.
