i really dont see why he didnt go around the tents and spectators. he was going slow but no way he knew where everyone was.

You can see he was in a wash and spinning his tires real bad. Probably would have got stuck trying to back up. Should bj drove over their stuff....probably not. Should all those spectators parked in the wash right on top of the race course....definitely not. I never get why people park so close to the course. We always park out of harms way to the best of our ability.

I don't know whether he's a douche or not but he was definitely in the wrong driving through and over spectators property. I saw a pic of the area that was filled with spectators. There were a lot of pop ups and camps alll along the area moast traveled. BJ and a few others ended up on the back side of them. There MIGHT have been some reason they could not have continued on to the end of the spectators and re-entered the course but even then there appeared no reason he could not have turned around and went around the way he came. It really was a dick move ,possibly a heat of the competition dick move but a dick move nevertheless. IMO. I read his offer to buy new popups and stuff along with a pallet of Monster drinks for the people. I think if he had just offered to pay for all damages and not have made an attempt to make good with Monster stuff he would have been better off. I mean he effed up not Monster. The "apology" would have been a bit more sincere. Just my .02
