RaceDayCT Poll: Do You Think JB Fortin Blocked Matt Hirschman Intentionally At Monadnock Sunday?


It was high drama Sunday at the close of the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Duel at the Dog 200 at Monadnock Speedway in Winchester, N.H.

When race leader Matt Hirschman attempted to go around the car of JB Fortin to put him a lap down on lap 198, Fortin did not make the task easy, seemingly racing Hirschman for most of the lap and forcing him up in the track in turns three and four to allow Justin Bonsignore to take over the lead and go on to win the race.

Matt Hirschman thought it was a payback for Fortin’s anger from an incident at Lee USA Speedway last month. Third place running Ron Silk said it definitely looked like intentional blocking by Fortin. But Fortin put out a statement after the race saying nothing he did was meant to intentionally slow Hirschman.

So where do you fall? Did JB Fortin intentionally block Matt Hirschman to cost him the victory at Monadnock? Vote below.

    Of course he did, his turned towards MH and he may have pulled off the throttle a bit also, he did slow up whether it was handling or directed at MH

  2. “Matt Hirschman thought it was a payback for Fortin’s anger from an incident at Lee USA Speedway last month.”

    Enough said, you had one coming so move on!

  3. Gotta give Fortin credit in either case. It either happened as he said or he made up the whopper of the year………”look mom, no hands”.
    What-a-ya gonna do, he was contrite, no one got wrecked so it’s on to Riverhead. Home cookin for the 34 and no 60 to worry about that’s for sure.

  4. Key words “no one got wrecked”. Karmas a bitch!

  5. Hirshman has more class in his pinky the that punk in the 34 has ever had in his body. Anybody that thinks the idiot didn’t do it on purpose doesn’t live in reality. And he has to be lapped traffic to do it. That the only way he was EVER going to have a chance to do something to the 60. Another jealous driver who just has to find a way into the media by taking out the best. And I am from New Hampshire and saying this. If Hirshman ran the tour he would win the title with absolute ease. That wasn’t karma. That was a bozo that took him out. 34 will run 15th everything he races in. Everyone hates a winner

    Fortin has it coming to him! MH can get in line for payback on the 34!

    So well said Scott. Your comment is spot on. It’s a shame that someone so insignificant can have such a maiger impact on what others work so hard to achieve. I truly believe that the other maiger players in that race would except and respect what should have been the final outcome.

  8. You people are talking about Fortin as if he is a contender. Leave him alone, he’s had his 15 minutes of fame.
