BOWMAN GRAY DRIVER ANGRY AT OFFICIALS - DELAYS RACING FOR 10 MINUTES; RADIO CHATTER CRAZY!

- The driver of the 21 car in the Sportsman Division at Bowman Gray, Tommy Neal, showed some serious displeasure with Bowman Gray Racing officials after he disagreed with their decision to put a car back in front of him that he felt didn't belong there.
It all started when a caution came out for a spinning car but 2 more cars behind that spin also had an issue on the track. Officials will often and usually put cars that have issues after the caution back in their spot from before the caution, so when officials told the 19 car to go back in front of the 21 car, Tommy Neal wasn't having it.
He kept the 19 car behind him, causing him to be black flagged on the restart. He stopped on the track, bringing out another caution. When they went green again, he went slow, bringing out another caution. Then he pulled his car sideways across the start finish line, got out of his car and pointed and yelled toward the tower where the officials call the race from.
And this descriptions of the events doesn't even take into account what was said on the various radio channels heard in the recording, a lot of which had to be bleeped for young ears.
Officials ended up towing the 21 car to the infield of the track for the remainder of the race so the driver and team couldn't cause any further delays.
He just wanted to leave before Golden Corral closed

Priceless!!!
Pffft 🤣🤣
People who don’t know Bowman Gray, it’s called the madhouse for a reason.
Man you can just see the car exhale in relief as he got out. 😂
He was angry with the officials that's why. Duh oxymoron
@@RyanBenbow what’s the matter you didn’t like the fat joke?😂
Why is it that all these drivers at Bowman Gray that look like teletubby's always think they're in a WWE match?
Great job with your videos, the graphics and audio really good. It's as good as any nascar broadcast and better that you don't miss whats happening with commercials.
I’m surprised they didn’t have to lube the window for Shamu to crawl out
Should be banned from there
The fake race fans love that stupid mess
I agree.
Definitely not.... He should be banned worldwide for life!
@@tomchrisfield7348he was angry with the officials. You oxymoron
@@RyanBenbow the proper word you should have used is Moron. An oxymoron is a figure of speech which apparently contradictory terms appear in conjunction.
That’s the biggest race suit I’ve ever seen
Santa is racing cars now?
I mean he's got to do something in the time before December lol
That dude just need to quit racing. He hit the damn water barrels last yr. Now this shit 😂😂
This race track promotes this kind of behavior!
Like all these small tracks do.
From someone thats been there and watched racing, you dont know what your talking about.
they really don't... not anymore. they've cracked down on it. someone got suspended for the rest of the season for right hooking.
@@drain6390 good 👍
They don't but sadly drivers don't care. And only so much you can do unless you want to close the track or the series.
Obviously he doesn't need to be in a car. His diabetes took over his mental clarity
And to think nascar is coming here for the clash.....what the fuck has stock car racing become
Amen!
He carried a ton of emotion
He needs to be arrested and sent for a 72 hour evaluation.
Astonished he could get out of the widow. Thought they build the car around him. 😂
@6:09 I guess a round peg does fit through a square hole
If the peg is made of soft goo 😅
Omg haha I an dead
Dude was hangery. Get him a Snickers.
No the whole case
That deserves a lifetime ban
I'm surprised he's still allowed to race there!!!
When I type in Bowman Gray Tommy Neal on TH-cam, I see nothing other than this person pulling these kinds of stunts every time.
Have they never heard of a ban there?
This track is an embarrassment to stock car racing.
You must not go to many short track races. There are other tracks where it's worse.
@@EricEllis-b2m it should be renamed the s**thouse.
@@EricEllis-b2m They don't run sanctioned races at Bowman. That's why they race like that.
@@shaynejenkins446 If you will look into it at the tracks NASCAR sanctions, only the top 2 classes are actually sanctioned. And if you have a track sanctioned by them you have send them a check each week for 5% of what your front gate is. That is in addition sanctioning fees and insurance.
I was surprised he could get out of the car. No surprise at the meltdown, he doesn't seem to have much discipline if you look at him lol. Sheesh!
He was a mad Oompa Loompa 🤣🤬🤣🏴🌭
This dummy does this all the time. He tried to steal a gator last year. Just ban him already
The buffet killer mad he didn't get his way..... AGAIN........ Feel sorry for one of the last few all you can eat buffet's. What's that ole Queen song.... Oh yeah. Another one bites the dust. That's how buffet owners feel when they see him walk in
He needs to get the opportunity to stay at home for a few weeks
Sit his ass out for the rest of the season and pull his NASCAR license.
@@toddknaperek8225 at Minimum he should be gone for a season if not 2 , But what a clown , i agree with just pulling his license
How the heck did he fit into that car,,cover fire suit????
Definitely don’t need any lead ballast on the driver side!!
It’s a shame that this the only track in the state dirt or asphalt that get a good car count and runs decent classes on a regular basis
Millbridge has great kart counts.
We went to Bowman for the first time yesterday and we were wondering why everyone was booing 21. This video explains a lot
I hope you enjoyed it!
If he got in a bad wreck, how would they ever get him out?
I didnt realize the Michelin Man actually drove a race car.
Michelin ain't that Big
Throw him out of the league. What a baby!
The issue is that he was right, he was told to pull in front of the 19, but it wouldn't yield and they track officials were just going to allow it.
I have no idea if you’re correct or not but if you’re right, track officials should have black flagged the 19 for failure to comply with race officials. That would have prevented this clown show…
But from what I understand about Bowman Gray, that’s how they roll…
Clown Show on Wheels…
@@topcat43truffles15 you are right completely.
I understand the guy does this regularly, so why don't they ban him?
@@stevenhunt3113
Reading the comments, someone said NASCAR has taken over the running of the track and that this season they’ve actually banned 2 drivers for the rest of the season…
I have no idea as to the validity of that but maybe it would clean things up… ( although by not black flagging the 19 and allowing this clown show to go on makes me question any NASCAR involvement….)
Definitely won’t lose any sleep over it, only watch these Bowman Gray videos on TH-cam when someone does some asinine thing and the wonderful TH-cam algorithm recommends it…lol Nice chatting..
👍🏼🍻🇺🇸😎
I still cannot believe people pay money to go watch this...this isn't racing.
The races were great, this guy just the idiot sideshow
You are right.. it is not racing just entertainment. a total joke.
Went once stayed for about two hours and 48 cautions. There were more caution laps than race laps.
@@vinceedwards575BGS is a circus. And I was at that circus last night, and it was spectacular entertainment.
It was a legendary moment he went straight to IHOP I saw him when he walked in he ordered the menu😅
If they weigh cars without the drivers inside, I think I can figure out why he suuuucks....
Except He's a multiple rime track champion.
He's just been surpassed by the younger, hungrier, and better drivers in tge last 2-3 years and has started acting the fool only in the last 2 years
Meanwhile officials somehow missed a stopped modified sitting right in front of them in turn 1 but still restarted the race anyway and proceeded to wreck half the field.
Funny thing about that - I never saw the car sitting there either. Although i kind of have tunnel vision in the viewfinder. Will post soonz
Is that the Nutty Professor? How does he manage to get in and out of that car, He's so big he is. =)
Did you not watch him get out, quit asking dumb azz questions
back in my day the track owner would have towed his truck and trailer off the property before he even got off the track. And he would be banned for life
This ain’t in your day boi
If he flips and that cage bends 1/8" he will be stuck inside.
If there's any B/S going on in that division, you can all most always bet that #21, Tommy Neil is involved.
If i was the owner of the car, no longer my driver
can’t take it away if he owns the car 😂
@@leahbeauchamp-bw6gbtrack can tell him not to come back
Guy’s relaaaax he’s having his Ricky Bobby moment
I bet he doesn’t have too much trouble getting his left side weight!
He needs to push that plate back and pray more!!
2:47 I agree to this spotter comment
Out of control garbage
Every time I see one of these Bowman Gray stadium races on TH-cam. It looks to be a shit show.
@@Aaron1969. I agree! The fact that television failed on two separate occasions to make this facility a reality show - Madhouse in 2010 and Race Night at Bowman Gray in 2018 both lasted only one season - showed, thankfully, serious race fans watched racing for...racing!
Unfortunately, the rule changes in NASCAR and the concurrently lack of interest in cars generally among the younger generation has relegated racing to an extravaganza. In fact, the quintessential example of this point lies in that the Busch Clash will run here in 2025. So much for tradition!
The standards of having a racing license should definitely be heightened, man was throwing a tantrum in that thing.
Walk back to the pits, you need the exercise.
21 car has a lot of left side weight
They gotta add weight to the right side to offset the left side. 🤔
Why are the chubbos always soo angry?
Probably going to need a bigger window before long, that looked like a squeeze getting out.
So the usual clown show I see. This is less entertaining than Friday Night wrestling.
Ban him from driving, owning, crewing or even spectating there and wherever the series races.
tommy shouldve kept racing no matter if they kept waving the black flag to him he should ignore the officials
No anger issues here!
Bowman gray is IRACING official races in real life. 😂🤣
21 driver needs to lay off the doughnuts
Teletubby rage mode activated 🍩 🍰 🍕 🥤
In an alternate universe, he retrieved his car and modified it so that NOBODY could get to it by using Flex Super Glue to hold the hood shut. He then wrestles the flagman to the ground and gets out a big black piece of paperboard with the words RACERS STILL ON TRACK in white paint. The pace car ATTEMPTS to come out, but the guy who modified his car wouldn't let him as he begins to wreck it in retaliation for what the flagman that he shoved to the ground did to the point of not being able to go out onto the track AT ALL. The drivers who got the big black piece of paperboard proceed to regrettably go to the infield to park their cars; the driver that held it then gets to race BY HIMSELF for only SEVEN LAPS so that he can get his points for winning by default (with the rest of them having to accept the black paperboard and forfeiting to get none).
It’ll be the first big test of how things “won’t change” under NASCAR ownership! The longtime BGS Garrisson management rewarded (behind the scenes) this kind of antics because it packs the place! I quit going years ago. No other track would permit threats to officials like that, and he killed 20 minutes of curfew limited racing time! I also noticed that the crowd, while by no means small, has been down the past couple weeks!
I didn't know they made à fire suit that big 😂
I do like the radio transmission chaos
"We're gonna need a bigger window."
Big boy looks good in that driver's suite!
Road Rage has no business being on any pavement. This guy needs to be banned for life.
That's got to make a sponsor proud. SMDH
Tommy temper tantrum 😂 6:30
This track is a shit show. An embarrassment to racing.
Hope he was invited to never return to the track.
Unacceptable behavior.
They need to make Tommy race elsewhere next year (like they should've done with Burt Myers after the 2008 season). 8:27).
How does he fit in that race car? Do they lube up the window opening?
He prefers to be buttered up
No way that car made weight with him in it!
My fellow big homie. Stay in the car… You almost got stuck…
Tent and awning made fire suit..
Didnt know they made race suits that big
@chris8video - do you own this footage? NASCAR may be interested in including some clips in an upcoming project. I wanted to check if you’d permit us to use a few clips?
He's gotta grease up that window to get out
Are you sure he's 21? Let me see his ID. He's acting like a 7 year old.
How does he fit in the seat? Genuine question it’s not a joke.
What a spoiled brat he is. Did they pick this guy up off the street or something?
Nah the picked up at the sizzler
I was big and fat and it made me very hateful. Lost a bunch of weight and my entire demeanor was more pleasant.
He needs to make a appointment with Jenny Craig🤮🤮🤬🤬
Hey....Isn't that Cartman from Southpark?.....Is his sponsor Vagisil.....
This is why I don’t watch the races anymore
Acting like a baby
He ruined a race, undertook and overtook several cars on a caution, risked the safety of officials, blatantly blocked the track, caused multiple interventions, bought the sport into disrepute. The only people who would have loved this was the cheering spectators and some of the competitors either wanting to count the laps down with them being High up the order or opportunistic drivers rear of the field. Everyone else would have had a range of emotions due to the antics of this guy. In my mind, as that vehicle can't go on the public highway don't tow his property off the premises but take it to court, see to it that he is banned First off from that series, then nationally, hopefully extending worldwide, also have him fined, in serious cases, some countries, if you do something amiss on a race track, your driving is held to account like it would be on the roads in your towns and cities, this is the worst instance of petullant and dangerous driving I've ever seen at a track. I heard the spotter say "we'll come back next week". He would even be allowed to buy a spectators ticket if I had anything to do with it, if I had anything to do with this sanctioning body, id be pushing for the most severe punishments available. In short, an out and out disgrace.
Harrison Burton looks different than I remember
What they should have done was banned him from coming back the next week for doing that shit
There are ways....Then there are ways....OK! The 21 car was maybe unfairly treated. But his actions took that all away! Now his season is over! ( if not more) His sponsors and crew have been humiliated! I feel for the driver yes!! Maybe just a real bad day! But he's supposed to be a professional. Schoolyard tactics when you have a 900 HP Machine at your fingertips, just makes for a very bad example, and seriously dangerous situation for his fellow drivers, and for adults, and young ones in the crowd that just wanted to enjoy a good night watching a car race. that is just.....SAD! :(
Way to go schmegma! You are well on your way to losing so many sponsors ..... REAL EINSTEIN MOMENT !!!
How the hell do you scale a car at the shop with him in or out?
Why do the cops always have to get involved?
It's sad that they allow people like that to race. I'nm sure he didn't make any freinds with his competitor's. He should be banned for life and his spotter was downing the track I'm sure there are other tracks around where he lives he could go to. Poor sportsmanship should not be tolerated.
Slobs
It's Bowman gray, he will be racing next week like nothing ever happened, hard to believe this track continues to be sanctioned by nascar, Bowman gray is an embarrassment to all racing. Nobody with any class or talent would ever compete here.
actually they suspended 2 drivers for the rest of the season. NASCAR bought the lease, they started cracking down..
@@drain6390
Interesting, that might actually make those idiots grow up and behave…maybe… lol
I hope they bann Piggy from racing for life!
Haha right on!!
Don't know who that guy is but he will never be a Nascar Cup Series Driver after behaving like that.
