Hmm, well that pretty much makes my entire above post moot. That's T2, much more open, and in my eyes too much contact from Pascarella. Still not malicious, though.
both looked aggressive to me, I like how Benny doesn't get out of the throttle though lol that's pretty awesome
I watched all the races 600 and 750 races. I did just happen to miss the first couple laps of one race that had the Joey and Benny incident in it. I really don't know what this chick is talking about though. The 600 class is tough and aggressive. I did not see Benny push anyone into the "wall". T1 at Vegas is tight and it gets real close real fast when you are pushing for the front in that class. I did see Benny pass Bryce in that corner. Benny however showed Bryce a wheel. And fit his bike in there and it appeared Bryce gave him some room and ran a bit wide. I don't think there was any contact, but I may be wrong. I missed what happened in the pits so I have no comment on that. I am sure there are many people that did see it though. There is video of the entire Joey and Benny incident. It is pretty bad.
i don't think anyone would suggest you do otherwise on the basis of one incident. but say for the sake of argument you're the title sponsor giving one of them $100K or so... are you going to have a little talk with your rider and his crew (father, etc.) about your expectations for future conduct and professionalism on and off the track?
