    Using the last lap pass at Sebring as an example, thats Pro racing. That pass was for all the marbles at the 12 hour. There was alot more on the line than a piece of wood and an ego. Any one of those racers would have done the same thing. Passes like that are also good for the network. If Bergmeister wanted it he could have turned right and spun Melo in to the wall. After how hard he roughed Berg up I was expecting it. I guess the point is if you can't afford to ball it up then don't. If someone balls it up for you it sucks but thats racing (I guess you could take the guy who wrecks you off track property and turn his face into hamburger though :P )

    Like Joey Hand's crash last year and this one. What would happen if they or Berg did turn him into the wall and after the crash the guy could never have walked again or had to eat through a straw for the rest of his life. Are any of you ready to live with something like this, and for how much money would it take for you to sleep well at night after turning someones spine into a pretzel? Something to ponder.
