Don't know that he deserved that or not. Did the Porsche brake check him in the last turn causing the first tap? Did the Vett try to punt the Porsche into a spin in the last turn? I also don't think the Porsche thought he would send the Vett headon intot the wall either. Yes, great vid. The Vett clearly had the faster time, after the pass, he was about to check out.

I think the tires on the P car were about shot too which contributed to the Vette having more grip and speed. Some dirty moves by the Vette, not sure the retaliation was deserving but I wouldn't have let him push me out of the way either if I was the Porsche.

All of the intake retainers on S2katTrack's car were cracked. It's got a new set now.

Dirty moves? He had a faster car and the P car was blocking him at all costs. A small bumper nudge isn't the same thing as putting someone in a wall then spinning them out.

I'd have ****** pulled a Cole Trickle and drove into that Porsche team.
