Penalties Handed Down and Reason  

Have just two stories. Both involve Gary Balough driving 73. The first is the one D. Wolfe-358 spoke of. Don't remember the year but in the Seventies on a rainy Super Dirt Week (yes they all involved rain) on the morning of race day Gary pushed a porta John with a rental car and damaged it. DIRT said he would not race that day unless he payed for it. My father payed the bill and Gary was reinstated. 
The other one I'm sure some of you remember when Gary gave the starter at Nazareth the one finger salute and of course the fans as well. He was told to never come back. I believe that one required my Grandfather to have a sit down with Jerry Fried.
