Misc. Sprint/Midget Racing

Wow, that was quick. Zeb Wise?

That or "Now it's time for Tanner Holmes" is universally everyone's response. Naturally I expect to see Ian Madsen or something. I feel bad for him but at the same time, that wreck at the Grove was not a great look. Getting spooked by Dewease and running into the pit wall on you own is a great way to appear on highlight reels (because DD drags you from the burning wreckage) and lose your job.

I think Tanner put out a video saying that Shark called but his commitments to Tarlton and the sponsors on his family car meant he wouldn't be able to take the 1a ride. Either way I think any of the more "established" drivers may be more hesitant now after seeing a guy leave a full time ride to just get fired after 3 shows. I'm pretty ignorant on the winged sprint car world, but this has been fascinating to watch from the outside.
 
Jacob Allen gets word that The Chaz of YouTube is talking trash about him and tells him to call. So he does. I don't know how The Chaz gets what he does out of these people who talk to him. I really don't. He somehow just completely disarms them and the next thing you know, Jacob is telling you about how he hasn't had a real conversation with a friend in months, his fear of dying behind the wheel (specifically citing the Balog accident from Eldora and Chase Johnson's horrible injury last year), and wanting to provide the family his parents couldn't.

 
Continuing in the theme of YouTube muckracking, I was entertained at Chaz throwing bombs at David Gravel, making allegations he has something in his helmet to signal him to other drivers. Then going forwards to seemingly accuse Brian Carter of having admitted to him, among other things, that they let Platinum drivers use illegal parts and overlook issues with stars. This of course is all in the aftermath of Ashton Torgerson winning at BAPS and being accused of having a trick wing by Danny Dietrich (which went over as well as you'd expect).

I pretty much don't care (is it not "if you aint cheating you aint trying?") as long as it isn't safety stuff.
