The Waterford Speedbowl is the typical Waterford Speedbowl the SK light feature was a joke the guy calling the shots there should be ashamed of himself. They handed the kid in the 44 the win who didn’t earn it an took it away from 87 management runs that place like a total circus that was a total disgrace
Clearly you didn’t watch the race. The leaders were in turns 3&4 when a car spun in turn 1 right in the middle of the track. The caution was put out before they exited turn 4. For safety reasons, you can have 8 cars going full tilt towards turn 1 with a car in the middle of the turn. She managed to get it down to the lower groove but was still in the way. There is no rule at Waterford that when the leader takes the white flag the race is over. There is no rule that a caution can’t fly on the last lap. Alot can be said about the 87 and his driving on track. The 44 gave him back what he had been dishing out all race to every car he raced along side of on the backstretch. To say Cormier didn’t earn that is like saying the 87 doesn’t run over people in the track.
