The battle with the 25 and 90 was great. Surprised we didn't get a caution with the cut tires at the end.

Roger Carter got jacked:

Quote:

To my racing friends... Anyone know who drives a red dual wheel with a big black fifth wheel trailer in the Mooresville area, please contact Roger Carter Racing by private message. Unfortunately, someone that Carter 2 Motorsports trusted with their equipment at the Toledo race decided that it was ok to steal, and hide, the #40 car and both the #40 and #97 pit boxes along with some other items out of our hauler... Where ever the #40 Dodge is being hidden, whoever is hiding it for the person who stole it will also be prosecuted. Put yourself in our position. Any ARCA owner out there should appreciate the fact that without their equipment, their company can fold. We hope that there are more good in people that we race with than bad. Please - if you have any information regarding this theft, contact us. Your name will be kept confidential. Thank you.

The ongoing drama with that team this season has been interesting, to say the least....

Isn't that kind of what put Rodger in jail in the first place?

Though to be fair, it seems Rodger has actually been a fairly more competent owner then Dana

The Dodge Charger race car and pit boxes were dumped by the thief last night in a tobacco field near Ringgold, Virginia. They were located by a somewhat confused farmer this morning.

Thanks to all who shared yesterday’s stolen car post. It worked!!

Your help put enough pressure on the thief to cause him to forgo his future plans for both the car and pit boxes.

Racing people are the greatest! The post was shared an amazing 295 times.

definitely seems like it if you've read ElvisOnFire's posts on RuRa about the team

Apparently the culprit was former NASCAR Truck Series crasher Billy Keyes: Dana Carter said this "When he first came to me he was telling me he was a truck driver and crew chief so I thought good deal two and one come to find out he's not a crew chief the whole time he was at the track he was on the phone with a known crew chief from the camping world truck series he had no clue what he was doing he had to call him to figure out what to do with the cars. I just found this out. Now I want all my other stuff back."

So they hired/trusted someone without doing a background check of any kind? Sorry, but that's incredibly fucking stupid and they more or less deserved this.

It's a low-budget ARCA team, what do you expect?

Underdogfan · PostPosted: Fri May 30, 2014 9:49 pm

ARCA AS FUCK!

I thought this team was hilariously incompetent with Rodger at the helm, Dana made it 10x moreso.

Both Carter 2 cars are on the NJMP entry list now. Odd considering they've strongly implied they would have to skip the event due to the robbery debacle.

Andrew Ranger won today's ARCA race in New Jersey driving a Dodge with Chevy decals on it. Justin Boston was holding Ranger at bay for much of the race before he cut down a tire, allowing Ranger to take the lead with 12 laps to go. Ranger ended up winning by over 17 seconds.

only in ARCA

I heard the 24 caused a pretty hard crash on lap 1 turn 2.

More from the team we've come to laugh at:

"Carter 2 Motorsports co-owner an absconder from probation: Dana Royal (alias Dana Carter) was convicted in July 2013 and placed on probation for 30 months for her involvement in an RV rental scam. The RV rental scam was the same crime that Roger Carter III was convicted of, which sent him to prison in November 2013. The North Carolina Department of Public Safety's website lists Royal as an absconder from probation. It encourages anyone that has information on Royal's whereabouts to contact the adult corrections division at 1-888-646-0024."

Ken Schrader set a new track record in qualifying for Winchester. The #23 car isn't running Winchester but will be at Chicago. They are going to focus more on their Truck Series Program.

Kids arguing. Megalol

The Roger Carter scumbag circus for today:

"Ray paid for the entire race but she sent a car without an engine, 40 was fucked from the start. Bad oil pump did her in. I feel so bad for the kid, but that's what Dana gets for refusing to pay for people to prepare the cars. Then when drivers offer to come down a prepare them themselves (like Ray), she says everything's fine and sends up a roller."

This is why racing is dying. Who gives a fuck about kids who can write their racing resumes on napkins, don't turn wreches and who jump from a half-season in latemodels/legends cars to ARCA, and who gives a fuck about them arguing?

There's more and more of them in racing because their parents have the cash, but who can relate to them, and how can they relate to fans? The simple answer is they don't, and people tune out.
