Good for them. I was pissed the way the announcers seemed to talk down about Hacking sitting out. Im glad at the risk of their contracts, they are willing to make a statement to promote a safer race.

+1 on that. The racers are the show and the talkie heads should respect the fact that a six time AMA champ says it's unsafe...but it took Dale Earnhart die'n for neck car to make big changes.

Wasn't Mladin the one who also very vocal about Loudon (NHIS) a few years back? Either way, good on him.
