At least you didn't blow the motor on a red.

Manny was KILLING the tree all day. and had already won the 30k. He was blinding that's why he didn't see steve die on the line.

There's a lot of ways to lose but that one sure had to hurt... Manny is just one of many killer bracket racers from Bradenton/Tampa Fl area

That had to hurt (red light). The way I think of it, the race is over as soon as somebody red lights (that is why if the second racer red lights or breaks out it doesn't matter).

We were just talking at our track last night, any light beats a red light (some of us were red lighting too often...)

Manny's light was -.005. Not exactly a blatant foul.

Steve Alford is not a duck either.

And these guys were feetsbraking. No electronics at all.
