After the Round of Indianapolis Jeff James driver of the Coorweiser #88 Ford took the points lead from Jordan Fisher the rookie driver for Fisher Motorsports #2 Chevy. With a move early in the 400 mile race by James causing the biggest wreck of the SCS History at 33 cars piled down the straight away, a move wreckless enough to get someone killed left announcers, fans, and the officials breathless hoping for the best by every driver. Luckily everyone walked away fine.
Lee Mayers: I feel like the hard racing by everyone was a bit overwhelming early in the race. We saw Charles Sandfer race really hard early as well but the beating and banging at these speeds at 200+ mph you got to know where the line is in safety in how hard you can race a driver. We for one do not like wreckless driving. The move Jeff James pulled on Matt Daleo was a bit too much. However we do feel that Jeff James is a class act driver that we've never had a problem with him before in fact this was the first time I had to call him to the hauler. However at these speeds you simply can't beat against a driver who has little to no room at all giving you the entire inside line. I feel Matt Daleo was played a bit dirty and not only him but the other 33 drivers! Teams prepped hard for this race for months and leading up to this week. All for their hopes to end for one driver being wreckless. This wreckless move caused rookie driver Jordan Fisher to crash and lose the points lead finishing 27th. We felt that it was only necessary for us to give out a penalty worth giving out."
