Not true.

So you think you can race and keep a line while looking in the stand at a spotter?
Wow

This topic is ridiculous. What next will the guys winning be accused of doing? Tires, Spotters, traction control... I pick that there using Rocket Fuel that gives them and advantage.Fact are that any team out there could do the exact same thing if they thought that was the advantage.How about you applaud that guys winning instead of trying to find faults.

Not so ridiculous when he got busted dopping tires in a crate late race a cpl years ago.

I don't know what kind of hand signals he gets, but I know which ones he deserves.

It's not going to happen every lap in every race, but in the right situation, a racer can absolutely see the guy giving signals. They know what they're looking for.

I've talked to his "spotter" all he does is let him know how close the next car is...lets him make better decisions on picking lines.

That's all most folks that signal thier drivers do.

I just read on another forum that the guy in the hat was the car owner, Wally Meskowski and that the driver of his car here, was Chuck Booth. I believe it was taken at Syracuse. Love that photo.

This matter of doping tires was taken to court and the decision was made in Kings favor Fastrak was made to pay prize money that due.

Kart man please post the fastrack press release stating that the dq was overturned. I could be wrong but I do not remember seeing such a release .

[jlandonl]

Yes please post because I don't remember as well. If it was overturned then my mistake

[lrnvlFan1w]

I think he lost the appeal on the tires at Lernerville but was awarded his winnings from when he won at Expo.  Fastrak allowed him to race but held his winnings when he won.

 

IDK they say a sin is a sin no matter the severity but I see Spotters and Tire doping as completely different.

Lol so the dq was upheld lol , sounds like the only thing fastrack did wrong was let him race during the appeal.

[kartman9]

Trumbull county court Dec. 8 2012 Judge Thomas Campbell ruled Fastrack must pay the $2,000 owed to Russel King also Russ King took a Forensic Assessment and Polygraph Examination by Holly Niotti-Soltesz  a Forensic Psychophysiologist that he past with indications of truthfulness greater than 98% that he was telling the truth when he denied in any way chemically altering or enhancing the tires used on that Memorial day.

  This is my last post on this subject to the nay sayers get a life.  Work hard all week drive hard on race day and win then people will find something wrong with how you win.
