Have you seen the vid?

Genuine question for you Panda Man, you do security, how would you have responded if you were told not to let him proceed by your boss?

Whether it was a mistake or not, he did not handle himself very well, he should have listened to directions and then sorted it out with who ever he needed to.

Agree about the handling, but he no right to be out on the pad, if there was a problem he should have sorted it out and then got his run back. Do we know why he was disqualified yet or is it hearsay?

I'm sure in the past we have both dealt with people at some stage of a problem that the situation could have gone in their favour if they approached it reasonably and listened to what was asked of them, but they want to carry on and we end up with no choice but to evict them.

The security guy really should never have kicked his car, that's why he flew of the handle I was told. Something to do with one marshall saying 1 thing and another marshall saying another.

Agree about the kicking.

I have heard he was disqualified for continuing a burn out after the fire marshal told him to turn it off, which was evident did not happen that way, I have also heard it was a breach of rules which could be to doing burn with out safety gear, his helmet, or doing a burn while people were still on the pad, who knows what is true until summernats management make a statement.

From Steve's Facesucks:

Steve Nogas:

Unfortunate the way things turned out at Summernats today, I know the way I went about things wasn't right and i apologize for that but telling someone that he cannot skid with two cars to go isn't right either. Summernats had 40hrs to get in touch with me about me driving off the pad after hitting the railing in Friday's qualifier when I was supposedly told by a fire marshal not to. We had a go pro camera attached to the car which clearly shows the fire marshal directing me to drive off the pad and no one telling me to shut it down. We will be uploading this footage from Friday tomorrow. Thanks Steve

Part II:

Just been talking to the officials at summernats again, working on a resolution to lift my life ban, i would like to apologize to any of the track officials and staff that i may have endangered and if i am back at summernats next year I'm more than happy to buy the blokes on the skid pad a beer.

I reckon this dickhead should have been thrown out as well...a marshal kicking an entrants car up top for brain smarts there.

I rewatched it, the car was kicked after he had pushed his way through the marshals, not it was kicked and he went
