The FINAL DECISION is up to OUR DISCRETION

During the 3rd round of Super Stock at the 4WIDE Nationals in Charlotte we saw something very strange unfold for the last car. A beautiful Corvette driven by Robbie Draughon was held in front of the water box for approximately 7 minutes. First we thought he was broke,,BUT by the look on Tabitha's fac,it didn't look good. We waited,infact the whole race was held up. I thought someone put oil down or they broke down track.
Well come to find out a Comp racer was entered in Super Stock also and had just made a run and he was Robbie's OPPONENT!! SOOO Robbie sat and waited,and waited all strapped in his Corvette,,for APPROXIMATELY 7 MINUTES!! We all know some drivers will do anything to distract our mental focus.
I've seen and experienced just about everything from an opponent to brake you're mental focus and concentration. This seemed totally unfair to Robbie and Tabitha because after waiting,,Robbie redlighted.
There's probably someplace in the rulebook that says,,Right or Wrong,,the final decision is up to our DISCRETION!!
