Title: Knox County Fair Demo Derby
Post by: Harness Racing Revolution on July 09, 2025, 06:38:59 PM
I wasn't going to post this to the forum because it's a fair and shit happens. Until this Jamaica Patton guy called one of the women on my group page the C word for saying he should have been going forward and not grabbing making it impossible to unhook. Nobody is yelling, the guys behind them CLUELESS and not paying attention. Amazingly nobody got hurt.

The announcer was pretty damn good he announced it immediately upon it happening, they either didn't hear him or were not focused.

He (the announcer) should of repeated and offered some advice in that few following seconds.

A race caller should not have to offer advice to drivers on how to unlock their wheels. The 2 horses coming from the back and rear ending the two with locked wheels was unbelievable. How come they didnt pull up or steer out of the way? One of those drivers has the last name of Delong so probably related to John Delong from Hoosier. Never seen that before. This was in Illinois  I believe.

You ever drive a race? First of all, if you need guidance from voices above you shouldn't be out there. Rarely is anyone listening for or able to hear an announcer. See those two things behind their glasses? Theyr'e called eyes and should be aware of what is or isn't in front of them. As for the two locked up, if your wheel is in front,  you go FORWARD not GRAB. And there's literally no excuse for anyone plowing through them. Zero.
