Flag guy is wild, wish I could've made it out.

[@mykejustmyke1407]

Thanks for uplaoding, appreciate your time!

[@jcarle1001]

That flag guy has an accident wish. Track insurance ain't gonna like that. I'm definitely gonna check this track out for its next spectator drag.

Thanks for another year of spectacular Spectator Drags. Season is way too short. Looking forward to next year.

Beamer definitely proved he could drive and the accident wasn’t really his fault lol bravo

[@mykejustmyke1407]

Everyones bashing the blazer, plz dont forget...although he is aggressive, he was disqualified last race for the EXACT SAME THING the bmw did to him.... probable the reason he might have been questioning the call or upset. Just an observation. Thanks for uploading!

[@TBERGMEDIA]

He’s a fair racer, he challenged for a 3 lap grudge race to put on a show and for bragging rights! How can anyone be upset over that!??? 🤣🤣🤣

[@mykejustmyke1407]

@@TBERGMEDIA so agree! 👍

[@dptkaos420]

Two different tracks different rules some tracks over look the contact!!

[@rwolfcastle]

I'm glad it didn't end in throwing hands. The M3 thought he had the inside line, the gap closed and he got on the brakes hard, but there wasn't enough space to avoid a collision. Completely on the M3's but shit happens in racing and that's often a hard pill to swallow. Mad respect for the Blazer owner for not only building an awesome truck but keeping his cool!

[@RollingRoadEFI]

Sorry dude I disagree with that statement entirely. Those two incidents while involving the same corner and area of the vehicles…. the two were totally different. This was a total dive, and as the Blazer maintained the line the BMW driver realized his mistake, locked the brakes and that was that. Sorry dude those two incidents are not alike at all.

[@Carbon_Video]

Good fun. That grudge race was great and then straight into a sweet drift, super cool! Great work with the vids.

Wow that grudge match is one of the best things I've watched in my 50 years of watching cars go fast. Kudos to both guys for putting on a great show and not coming to fisticuffs. All that BMW needs now is AWD to go head to head with that insane white truck. Goddamn that thing launches!

[@myrrhavm]

Mr. Blazer is a hard loser. It’s drags not block or taking lanes away from your competition. Hold your line, don’t push the guy into the wall. Use to go to boat races decades ago. Forty plus. They would have a contender from each class, maybe five or six in a final race with a staggered start, sometimes with a a boat or two starting a lap down. By the time the laps, let’s say 10 were down with one to go they were all with in mere seconds of each other and it became a mad dash for the finish. I know they have multi classes in GT and Lemans race at the same time but not with staggered starts to where they were all on the same last lap together where a slower class could actually win the race. I like how the guy in the white short-bed is out for fun and the game of competition is secondary. Let the Mini win one to get one more lap around the track. Sportsmanship.

[@TBERGMEDIA]

You want to see what pushing someone into the wall looks like? That is entirely false and sad to see that comment from a subscriber. He’s putting on a show for fans, gave the bmw outside lane in the last of the race and played fairly! How can you possibly be upset over that! Not even to mention the fact he accidentally got dumped and didn’t cry about he just challenged for another race! Open your mind my friend, we’re all out there for fun!

[@TBERGMEDIA]

Appreciate the end of this comment though, Steve is the man in the white truck and had to make things interesting for the crowd! 🤘

[@mongoose406]

@UCBEcLFc8YoA64k3G6t1NbUQ He's just warming the tires for better traction. Those weren't Donuts. That Blazer would be spinning smokey circles with ease..

[@DanKoning777]

Dino "blocking/taking lanes away from your competition" is seen in most every race. I personally like clean races like the Mark Martin's of decades past NASCAR, but those days are gone. You either either lead/block, or follow/lose today, like it or not.

I really like the black blazer It's a really good driver but I really don't like when he cut in front of that car like that maybe it was an accident and he didn't saw him in the mirror but Still was a little too aggressive I feel bad for the BMW guy Maybe he doesn't care too much but if it was me in my truck I would care a lot more .... And that white truck Gets me thinking about building my truck 4wd it lunch so hard 💪💪

[@TBERGMEDIA]

He didn’t cut in front, this track isn’t all that wide in the turns. He was following his line bmw had some sauce off the backstretch and locked it up and went into him. Would’ve done the same thing to the firebird had he caught more speed. He tried to sneak in similar to blazer in previous race but actually dumped him in the turn. And AWD would be awesome for your truck haha you like to drift though lol

[@JustinOtterholt]

Just like Charlie did at Seekonk, the bmw went for a line that wasn't there (unless you count the apron as a line), and by the time he realized his mistake and locked up it was too late. Almost identical to what Charlie did at Seekonk. The bmw should've been DQ'd for that though, intentional or not, if you dump someone and take the win, that's not right.

[@hardbody_Santiago96]

Ist reacing so I understand I do spectator drags my self .. depends off how much you are willing to risk it could give you the win... but I don't know about driving like that if his gona participate on December on the freedom factory with all of those expenses cars 😬😬😬 these gona be a lot of expenses cars out there 😳

[@Rock-Bottem1982]

That whiney blazer needs to be banned from ALL spectator drags events, everywhere. He ALWAYS cries to the track officials when he loses any race. He brake checks people during these races, which he did to the BMW going into turn 3. He dive bombs cars going into turn 3 which makes him wash up the track, sideways 2-3 lanes making any car in the lead get off the accelerator to avoid the enviable door slam, allowing him to win dirty. BUT, when racers race him the same, dirty way he races, he becomes a punk, crying to the officials that they raced him unfairly

This track isn’t all that wide, blazer had the line..it’s hard to compare to Seekonk but it is somewhat similar to the race where blazer tried similar maneuver on the T/A having even more room...bmw did not have that line and could have easily went around as proven up against the black firebird and grudge match against the blazer. Mistakes happen but that was not all blazers fault.

That grudge match was a joke 😂 the blazer couldn’t handle being spun out because he cut down the track to block the bmw without room for the bmw to stop.

But that was rediculous

[@straitmungry]

He's just a sore loser who has an ego as large as the track. If he paid any attention, he did exactly as you described - cut down his line straight into the inside of the turn in an attempt to block the BMW any chance of an inside turn, not realizing the BMW had already caught up to him (though the Beamer did brake slightly late into the corner). Not only this, he threw a fit and demanded another re-run right then & there, not moving till he got it. When he didn't get his way, he drove to the pit ready to talk shit & argue (it's on the video lmao). There was a reason it took 4 people to talk his ass down from his tantrum. He's a joy to watch sometimes because he's wild on the track, but he's also wildly disrespectful to the other drivers.
