OK, it's official, Shane Hmiel is a horses ass! Wrecks 2 cars and says he don't care.
Jackass!
During the red flag, Jarrett, visibly upset, exited his car and walked half the front stretch to confront Hmiel. TV replays showed Jarrett pointing his finger at Hmiel's face and Hmiel directing an obscene gesture toward Jarrett.
NASCAR officials plan to review the footage and announce any possible penalties later this week.
"I'd like to know where he thought he was going," Jarrett said. "We were already three-wide because Jon Wood got loose and I got underneath him.
"It's only a half-mile track, so where does he think he was going?"
Hmiel was unapologetic after the race. Jarrett "threatened he would get me and all that stuff. He better hurry up because he ain't got much longer."

I'll reserve judgement until I see the footage.

must be the way they are raised thinkin they are better than others or something![]()
Both are spoiled brats. Just wth do they think they are. They don't belong in Nascar.steveluvs3 said:Hey johnny sauter has a brother now, "The Bonehead Brothers". Shane better get fined for flippin the bird, If mike wallace can get fined for NASCAR reading lips then shane better get fined, Man he is pretty brave for flippin DJ off while his back was turned.
Those were my thoughts exactly - the wreck was asinine and shouldn't have happened, but hey it's Bristol, that's what people go there to see.TexasRaceLady said:Playing the bump-and-run is SOP at Bristol. It was being used by almost everyone on the track at one time or another.
My problem with Shane was his nasty comment about DJ after the race.

Why does everything come back to an Earnhardt? I love it...
Seriously, I'm with fergy on this one! This thread had NOTHING to do with an Earnhardt, and yet a reference always has to be made.barelypure said:And, because he seems to get a free pass regardless of what he does or who he does it to.
Thankfully, this season he has been a non-issue. It will be interesting to see what NASCAR comes up with if it looks like he may miss the C4C.![]()

The flashpoint came on lap 186, when Earnhardt rode the low groove through Turn 3. Kenseth, the leader at the time, was working high with Jimmie Johnson on his bumper. Running third, Earnhardt dove inside, and his left tires clearly went over the yellow line on the track apron -- NASCAR's out-of-bounds designation at Talladega and Daytona. He shot past Kenseth into the lead and ignited NASCAR's third post-race controversy in two weeks.
"When the [expletive]'s (my comment here- I guess this could count as 2 since he wasn't fined) on, you ain't really thinking about the yellow line," Earnhardt said of the incident. He insisted he didn't stray below it on purpose. He was watching Kenseth instead and was worried that Kenseth might sweep down from the high groove to block him.
"I was trying not to run into him if he came down and crossed over [in front of] my car," Earnhardt said of Kenseth. "So it was more not to cause a wreck than anything. But I didn't necessarily intentionally intend to end up there."
NASCAR exonerated Earnhardt, claiming that he'd already passed Kenseth by the time his wheels crossed the yellow line, and thus didn't improve his position. He did, however, improve his status in the Cup point standings. He's now second behind Kenseth heading into Martinsville.
