Think the person that backed into you should ante up for repairs!

Someone was backing out of there pit area last nite and ran into my trailer and he was great about it and paid me on the spot!!!! I would do the same thing if i caused any damage to someones race car or rig.

Without question, I would feel horrible and pay for it. So did the guy offer to pay, or do you have to break his legs?

He made a run for it. Track security caught him at the gate. I'm not naming names until I see if he comes around. If he no help. He get plenty publicity. Got his NHRA and drivers license info, photos and many witnesses including track personell. He said he was directed to back up. The track personell were very helpful.

so what happened after they caught him?

I had an Idiot from Minnesota hit my car in the lanes at Brainerd. He said the track told him to move. he also said he would stop bye and talk about making it right. He never did, when I saw him next he told me there was no way for me to make him do anything about it. He was right. He knew this because his underage son drove his 4 wheeler into someones trailer the year before.

I hit a guys motorhome by accident in St Louis. I paid him for the repair. There is nothing that can be done, when in the track, it all comes down to class. Hope he is a good guy, if he's an ***, he wont care who you tell.

They took his info. Earlier they said they would have him come to my trailer and make it right. The track took it more seriously than I expected. They want to be kept informed. They inferred having his NHRA info made a difference.
