Can't get the vid to play, but is that when Colin Edwards acts like a complete dickhead throwing and kicking rocks onto the track???

Select LQ under the vid & it will play but yes, that is the vid.

Unbelievable how many did get caught by that oil and the officials doing dick all about it.  [roll]

Thanks mate....

Yep...  I remember that race well...  Edwards has annoyed the shit out of me ever since then!!!   Carries on like a TWAT (with fair justification mind you) but throwing stuff on the track was just mindless....

Foggy obviously had a nice line through that corner [thumbsup]

I reckon the "throwing " stuff on the track was slinging off at the officials who up to that stage hadnt twigged to the dangerous condition of the track and produced the appropriate flag!!  [thumbsup]

As in "Do you see these freaking rocks you dropkicks??" (With a Texas accent of course. )   ;D

Real handy for other racers though...   Ya don't need more shit on the track to push you off a clean line (Foggy's for example and into shit!!)

Edwards is just a TWAT!!!!  He has always carried on like a dickhead...

"..ahhh, Colin Edwards bless his heart" as the announcer said  [cheeky]  That was just a complete balls up by the marshalls.
