guy posted a question to Kevin Buckler about the accident were he drilled Larry Schumacher and David Murry's car at Sears Point a couple weekends ago in the ALMS race. Kevin told some BS story and I sort of called him out and then David Murry himself set the story straight, or at least gave his version of what happened.
My mechanic is on this team and he said the video was clear in whose fault it was and this was a brand new car whose owner (Larry S.) had bought several rides with him. Needless to say he probably didn't have drinks with Kevin after the race. If Kevin had just cooled his horses for half a lap he would have been by.
I don't know Kevin but I have seen some of his interviews on www.theracesite.com and he seems to be the biggest whiner, never heard the guy say we made a mistake, or it was our fault we missed the set up, it is always the sactioning bodies fault or the other driver's.
A friend of mine that I think you will hear more of if you follow sports car racing will be in the same car as Kevin Buckler at Mid Ohio. I really do hope they get a top finish because if he doesn't I am afraid that he will blame my friend. He doesn't have a ton of experience in the Porsche GT3RS but he has won several National Runoff titles there and still holds records from several years ago in Formula Atlantic.
I had to post this but for the sake of being PC I didn't think I should on rennlist web boards.
