What would you do if a pissed off racer took one of your official's hats off and smacked them in the face with it over an on track rule violation? I'm pretty sure I know what the answer is.
Probably a nice hug,some counseling.Probably a good laugh afterwards, with a promise to remain friends.
Over a disagreement with a black flag / jump start. All pissed off yelling throwing a fit, take the officials hat off his head and smack him in the face with it. What's the repercussions?
I will not name names nor will get anymore detailed than I already have. Let's just treat it as a theoretical question for now. The race community is small let's just say that.
That almost happened to me one time. I got meatballed by mistake while leading a suzuki money race with a big lead. I came down pit road, and they told me to keep going that it was a mistake. I was real ugly, but didn't assault anyone afterwards.
Yea, I think any racer would lose it if that happened. Where did you finish on the track and did they promote you back to winner, even if you didn't actually finish on the track in first?
Okay I'll take it a little further. What if after all this happened one of the pissed off crew members crossed a hot race track during a race to leave the facility? What would the repercussions be for that?
Sounds like a very big Clusterfuck....too bad it happened. I would like to think if I was the official I could hold my cool, but based on my experience with some bad employees, I'm sure at least a little yelling would have happened.
Everybody will be begging for details. The only way to avoid this would be to email the Big Guy. So spill it!
