    He nearly cleaned out Beaubier, and gave Jake space for the win.

    Steeltoe What's my move?

    Herrin's red mist has always been his worst enemy.

    Pridmore called that, Cam B couldn't get that thing to turn and probably had to shut off for a sec.

    Glad everybody's ok, bet Herrin had to clean his undies.

    It almost looked deliberate…

    Herrin impressed on that Duc….


    right up until he almost cleaned Cam out. That looked intentional.

    Beaubier said he ran into Herrin, couldn't turn (quote) . For all you Herrin haters again this year!

    Thank you. I know someone else had to hear/see that.

    Herrin rode his ass off and has a right to be upset. It was also clean, hard racing and after the adrenaline wears off I think he'll undestand that.

    But goddamn man, get off Herrin's nuts people! He just helped deliver an amazing show for us. I hope he's up there all year long.

    I agree he rode his ass off and it was a GREAT race. I think it’s gonna be a great season. . I’ve met him a couple times in the paddock and he’s very approachable and nice. Not a hater. But hopefully he calms down and realizes it was a racing incident.

    he’s caused a couple of his own.

    That was the corner before. Cam bumped Josh, then the red mist deployed, and Herrin tried to be a Hero in the next corner.

    You guys talking about when he went into the grass. Didn't look intentional to me unless I missed something. Seemed like he was too far inside and tried to brake too late trying to make up the time he lost from being bumped out and offline.

    Crazy fun and entertaining race. That last lap should get MA some youtube clicks. Herrin going Leeroy Jenkins is just part of the show, and pro racing is a show biz.

    It's all racing, but there was no way Herrin was going to make up all that ground. He ran in front of Cam and off the track. Thankfully nobody got cleaned out.

    Are you talking about when Herrin ran wide coming on to back straight?

    I don't feel bad for anyone racing Herrin hard.Live by it,die by it.Its only ok when he's dishing it out.I lost all respect for him after Daytona....BUT!!!!!! Dude rode his ass off! Road racing is my wraslers mania,so we could and should all talk shit! its not like we all watch football,and that was so great to watch! once again my dogs ran and hide from me yelling and clapping! Love Gagne! I really didnt expect the bulldozer to be in the hunt,but he definitely found something from yesterday .I guess if Warhorse throws enough money at everything,somethings gotta stick!Great weekend of racing!
