Summary
A Tennessee dirt late model racer was given a minimum two-year suspension and arrested for aggravated assault after an incident in the pits. The incident occurred during a feature race at 1-75 Raceway in Sweetwater, where the racer, Greg Martin, collided with another driver, Matt Henderson. After the crash, Martin struck Henderson’s car at a slow speed while crew members serviced it in the infield pit area, knocking two crew members to the ground. One crew member reportedly required medical attention.
Our Reading
The incident gets a new name: “Pit Road Rage.”
Greg Martin’s anger management skills are put to the test.
Racing cars are not suitable for conflict resolution.
Aggravated assault charges are not a typical racing penalty.
And, apparently, “ramming a car in the pits” is not a thing.
