I think RC gave it a little brake check in the block pass. Aggressive and definite, but not dirty. It looked to me as if Trav decided to bump RC to let him know he was there and not backing off. It also looked like he was being tentative with the bump. Unfortunatly for Trav, when you bump someone block passing you if you don't make sure they fall, odds are you end up taking yourself out instead. Hope Trav learned his lesson. He is just too nice a guy and even when he tries a bad boy racing move, he's no good at it.

I agree, the Rock crash could have left someone hurt serioiusly. I place partial blame on the flag set up. The flag man started waving the yellow right away, but was just off the track right by LaRocco in the low spot where he could hardly be seen. They should have had a platform just off from the highest point to wave the flag from. Not sure if it would have come in time for Trav to aviod the crash, but certianly Byrne and Tedesco could have singled had the flag been in a better position. After Tedesco one of the other flagmen jumped up on the hill to flag and everyone after that slowed in time.
