You couldn’t hold Steve Butler’s driving bag. He had more talent in his pinky than most. Just look up his results and the short amount of time he raced and see if your comment makes sense?!?

That’s exactly what I was thinking about. Also wanted to add, a lot of it may be because of the pressure on these guys to win. It’s not a family sport anymore, it’s a high buck business. These young men are competing for the race, but also for a possible opportunity to drive for a high dollar team, and a possible move up the racing ladder, ala Chase Briscoe, Tony Stewart, etc.

I was there when he was racing we ran against him all the time. I didn’t say he didn’t have a lot of talent. He did have a lot of talent but a lot of times he would just slam into you and take you out rather than pass you clean. He always had the same excuse “ I didn’t see you “.

Is anyone really surprised? Windom hasn't earned s**t! One of these days he'll do it to the wrong person....

The record will show that Windom won championships in all 3 National touring divisions during his career. If he's comfortable and secure winning it this way and the guy he had to dump to make it happen is okay with it then I reckon it is what it is. But, to many of us who will always remember how this came down it will never hold the same prestige and honor than if he'd have won it without the last lap desperation cheap shot. None of that may mean a damn thing to Windom but to some of us it does.
