Carl black flagged!!!
Does anyone else think it was funny that Carl was black flagged today in the pro4. Maybe its more of a surprise.
Is the word getting around that its BS how he is favored!

Re: Carl black flagged!!!
The hit that he was black flagged wasnt that bad. But giving Carls history maybe the Officals knew what was coming and Nipped in the bud.

He never intentionally means to take anyone out, RIGHT!
Its comical that with the backlash and all that has been said after the last cheap shot at JW last race that CORR finally black flagged him.
ITS BEEN A LONG TIME COMING!

Re: Carl black flagged!!!
ok, you guys can talk all you want about how Carl has this coming. But that track was extremely wet in that turn and every single driver was struggling on that turn all day in all classes. And if you watch the videos, Carl gets bumped on the 2 previous times going into that turn. And regardless of whether he lost control or bumped him or whatever. Carl gets black flagged for what was already done to him the previous 2 times.
Now what I wanna know, is whatever happened to throwing out that blue and yellow flag giving the drivers the warnings. I think that flag should come out a lot more and then maybe the fans will know exactly who does and doesnt get warnings from the officials.

The blue and yellow flag is for lap traffic, to let a slower car know the leaders are coming, and to hold your line.
Im I mising something? I didnt see any lapped traffic, just Carl slamming LeDuc. Which like you I thought was just a racing inceident (SP sorry).

Re: Carl black flagged!!!
It looked to me like Carl was coming in really hard, trying to use Johnny as a berm. He missed Johnny but was coming in so hard he slid all the way out and hit Kyle. Kyle's pass on Carl was pretty clean.

Re: Carl black flagged!!!
Watch where the pass happens, When Carl gets passed it is on the exit of the turn and they bump in the center of the track. When it is reversed, As was stated earlier, Carl comes in hot and appears to aim or maybe just not turn enough and heads for Greaves,,,,, misses and Leduc was next. The difference in the contact is that he was doing the outside in move and forgot the "in" part which then has him making contact all the way accross the track pinching Leduc against the wall.
Black flag... About time!

Re: Carl black flagged!!!
Last race Carl made it a point to tell a live audience on TV that he had been driving to "nice" and was gonna start banging people around.......Might not be a good idea to throw that kind of strategy out on a live broadcast and then plant Welchel just to prove your point.....
