Yeah, saw that earlier and I've read a few comments about it. Can't say I blame Tony and I think he handles himself well. The aggressor is actually an off-duty sheriff's deputy, who is a classless dbag.

A sheriff's deputy? The dude doesn't look like he could chase a hamburger rolling down the street, let alone a criminal.

Seriously, Tony Stewart barely pushed the guy and he was on the floor. I thought he was going to have a heart attack.

It was the other guy that pushed him (the one in the blue) wasn't it?
I don't blame Tony for his reaction, you're there on your own time grading the track, not even racing or anything, and while you're doing your work, which gives this douchbag the opportunity to watch some racing, it's kind of a dick thing to do, regardless of whether you like him or not, by all means flip him off while he passes you at Daytona, but not when he's working for your entertainment.

I am very sorry if you find my posts long and boring, I like to type and often go off on a tangent.

He reminded me of Sheriff Buford T. Justice...

The Cup Series "playoff" format will now be implemented in the Xfinity Series and Camping World Truck Series. 7-race elimination formats among 12 drivers in Xfinity and 8 drivers in Trucks.
And because NASCAR never fails to be ridiculous, the Trucks will now have a "caution clock", in which a caution will be thrown during any green flag run lasting 20 minutes. Just in case "invisibris" cautions weren't obvious enough.

You can't. Seems it is an exclusive blend made only for the consumption of Nascar executives.

Interestingly, some guy calculated that in the truck series, there were very, very few times last year when there wasn't a caution within 20 minutes of green anyway. I guess if you had to look for the good in this, it's better than the "safety" pretext they used to throw the fake cautions under..
