I realize that circle racing is indeed a contact sport, i have a friend that runs 2 sprint cars at West Memphis Ar. and they are fighting/argueing all the time and sometimes come to blows.
I also realize that drag racing is a different world and i too will help (if i can) someone who needs help in the pits to get back in competition, even if i may have to run them before the nite is over. Nascar, just this yr. started allowing the drivers to display more of their personalities, but will still fine and ban any driver or pit crew who throws punches.
I can't see a law suit, but i can see the ban (not for life) but a couple races. I had a friend who got ban for life from No Problem drag strip for complaining about a motor home owned by a local for leaving his gray water open for a 3 day race, which turned into a mud hole where my friend was parked next too his, go figure!
