Saturday nights actions taken by VMRS officials to DQ the #85 because the car owner was arguing with them concerning other competitors working on their cars during a red flag , is exactly why I don't support this series. DQing a driver during an event for something that has nothing to do with him or his equipment is obsurd! it cheats every paying ticket buyer! if the people running this series are so thin skinned and uncaring of the paying customer they don't deserve any support!! Can you imagine NASCAR throwing Dale jr. out because Mr. Hendrick was yelling at them! its ridiculous!!.

If Mr Hendrick or any other owner was physically and verbally assaulting an official (not) arguing.....then yes I can imagine the heavy hand of Nascar doing that. These are people just doing there job. If there is an a serious complaint, issue or bad call made. It should be dealt with after the Race in person with the Race Director privately.

racerjoe,if the car owner was physically assaulting the official then why not throw him out with police escort,why dq the driver?and being assaulted verbally??don't you think cup officials are yelled at also when something is done under the red to repair a car.As for talking with the race director after the race,are you kidding me?this is Mr.Batemans tour and he lets ya know every chance he gets.This tour was a great thing when it was started but I see it going down hill fast.Seems funny when his car doesn't qualifiy thru heats or consi it always seems to start.I'm just saying.

Not saying I agreed or disagreed with the result. Just stating there should be Zero tolerance to abusing the officials who have nothing to do with the makings of the content of the rules. And there was quite difference from arguing a call and what went on that evening. For the record his car DNQ at Seekonk.

Worse yet, The 85 is(was) in the points race. When a call in the pits manipulates the point standings I have an issue with it. I agree it cheats the ticket buyer too. I guess someone else has been picked by the officials to be the 2014 champion.

I agree no one should be exposed to abusive behavior , but when the front gate customers are cheated because race officials cant properly handle an off track issue in the pits it hurts All racing! throw the owner out/ have him arrested if warranted whatever . Just don't mess with the product on the track.

so a 3 race suspension for entire team.if this was a nascar event would the entire team get the same result?racerjoe said you should talk to race director after the race and that's what Todd tried to do and was told"see ya".Like I said before,this series is on its way down!!
