Everybody is blaming somebody, I guess I am the real one at fault, Aaron does a good job of running a consistant line. It's my fault he's not going faster, don't have the $ for new engine, I was pleased with the way he drove the car last night. He was given the leaders are coming flag (not really move over the way it's explained at the drivers meeting) and he was holding his line, you don't know how close the leaders are until they are next to you. I thought it was a racing deal and I wouldn't tell any driver to move off the track. Jason was running the same grove as Aaron and Rick got a good run up on top, I guess Aaron should have looked in his rear view mirror to see who he wanted to block! Sorry guys racing deal, I think no fault, either Aaron or Jason.

Jason, I didnt hit the brake or let off the gas-- the only explination to anything seeming like that that I can think of is that when you bumped me the first time, it possibly took the weight off the back and caused me to lose traction.

I had been running the middle lane, when I received the blue and yellow flag, I moved to the bottom of the track as I had seen the majority of the cars ahead of me (Bruce, Loftis, other fast guys who had to go back up through the field) running the top, so I used all the information I had been given and assumed the leaders were on the top.

I don't know if it was a right call for a penalty either-- he was racing for the win-- you do what you have to do for a win-- I ran in to Lulu Strub once in nearly an identical incident to last night with the exception it was the white flag rather than the checkered.

Jason good run!  I know that I'm a rookie in the A/S division so my opinion doesnt really matter, but like everyone else I like to give it anyways.  Rubbins racing and especially at our local dirt tracks.  Jason was robbed of his finish.  I will agree with the officials with the call they made if they were coming to take the white flag, or on the back stretch on the last lap.  From a fans respective that was a awsome race to watch.  Standing in line to go into the pits after the races that was what everyone was talking about.  What a great finish.  I didn't hear anyone say one bad word about Jason, just that was awsome to watch.  Bakersfield Speedway is becoming like Nascar the suit and tie type, and that's why the ratings are falling out like crazy.  Let us race to the checkers the last thing we need in our minds is they will penalize us for racing hard with lap traffic.  It will make for some bad boring racing.
