This morning the John Boy and Billy show played a song that was written when Ironhead "won" a race by bumping Bobby Hamilton. I also saw some quotes from the other drivers on thatsracin.com.

I don't think it will ever get that bad, but it's still scary to think about.

I believe it was Hamilton who said, "He's the best driver in the world. He can hit you or miss you. Whatever he wants to do." He didn't "accidently" put LaBonte or Hamilton into the wall. Any other driver would have been pentalized.
I think I'll check out the thatsracin site.
