You dont to explain that one to me!!
Even after Cale stopped driving and owned a Winston Cup car he was rumored (there we go again)to knock his own people around in the pits and the shop. When he was driving, well.. we can go to the video for that.

Maybe the guy in the Cuda is sleeping with the BMW driver's wife and that's why the Beemer guy is doing what he's doing. Maybe the Cuda guy ran the Beemer guy off the track at a previous race and now he's doing what he can to annoy the Cuda driver.

Let's not forget Dale Earnhardt, one of the great bump-and-win drivers. Jeremy Mayfield got into Earnhardt's rear on the last turn of a race on a short oval (Bristol?) and loosened Dale Sr. just enough to allow Mayfield to get past for the win. Earnhardt came roaring up alongside and flipped-off Mayfield on live TV. Afterward, Mayfield was asked about the tap and his reply was, "I don't know why Dale was so mad, he made his whole career doing that to other drivers."

No messing around is allowed in vintage car racing. Period. No contact, no 10/10ths racing, and if you have an off track excursion you are black flagged from the track. If you hit another car, you are banned from further races. The rules are extremely strict based on the fact that the majority of these cars are irreplaceable one of a kind race cars with serious history, worth in the millions of dollars. When you have some guy in a $2000 beemer trying to run a multi-million dollar Gurney AAR Cuda off the track it makes you really mad.

Sorry fellers,gotta call that one for what it was.Cuda guy is what's referred to in the instructing world as OSB(other sports bekon)He should work more on his heel and toe and less on his french gestural scolding.I can see him not wanting to scuff his investemnt,but sometimes it's the indian not the arrow.

Road racing is all about smooth momentum,and it goes like this*

*Warning,tweeter bender

Maybe a nice friendly little smack upside the Beamer drivers head back in the pit would be best instead of scratching up the cars! That sure is one bad azz mopar!But that little beamer was always right there with him!If the old boy driving that cuda made one little mistake he was going to have to catch the beamer all over again.

I love the throw on that guys shifter but hate the whine. However, nothing like that Cuda's roar!
