This is true but in my opinion Richard's antics greatly distract and cheapen her accomplishments.

I personally did not think much of her comments after the first round of qualifying. The gist of what I heard was if you don't like what we are doing get your own multi million dollar team.

I have become a KB fan this week.

Greg said he didn't like these antics but didn't he start it last year?

The way I heard it was that he was okay with playing the ladder in qualifying but did not approve of drivers taking dives during eliminations.

Come on guys, what do you think Team KB is going to do if Greg Anderson has to race Dallas Green or Kyle Koretsky on Sunday?

Didn't he dive to give Jason the championship?

They were 2 and 2 against each other the last time Jason won the championship and none looked like a dive. It was 2016

Unless something un realistic occurs Anderson will claim the title.

Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT-----ET---Speed-----Car#-Driver(Opp'nt)-RT----ET---Speed
4 Greg Anderson 4255 John Callahan
E1 ****WINNER**** 0.071 6.549 208.68 -0.232 11.072 82.46
Qualified: #1 6.558 209.85 #16 6.852 186.23
Greg Anderson is 367 - 106 (78%) in round 1.
In the last 30 years the No. 16 Pro Stock qualifier is 5 - 25 in rd. 1 at this event.

This is Callahan's first round of eliminations in a Pro Stock car. He goes red to give Anderson the win.

Anderson runs low E.T. of the event for the win and lane choice in the next round vs. Kramer


Keep the train rollin' Greg !!

The KB cars have always run heads up in Eliminations, even at the expense of losing a Championship.

The ladder games are ok if you choose, but come at the expense of lane choice and the possibility of running someone you did not intend to.

The opportunity to exploit the situation increases when your team has several cars entered, but only 1 car in contention for the Championship.

In the past, when Jeg was also in contention, or in the case of Jason and Bo, the option for one of those teams to manipulate the outcome was almost a non issue because you weren't clear of impacting your teammate's year end points position either until the semi of final round.
