I lost respect for him a few years back while at talledega. Can't remember which race it was, but his car ended up on the roof. The emergency workers were trying to figure out how exactly to get him out (I suppose). He made a comment during a television interview that they should have just flipped his car over and everything would have been fine. He basically bashed those emergency workers because he he thought he knew how to do it better.

Here is my problem with that. I have a career in Fire/EMS. We know how to do our job. That is what we are trained to do. Those emergency workers on the track are certified just like I am. They are not just john Q public off the street. We don't tell them how to do their job on the track, so don't bash those guys because you think you could have done it better. Next time maybe he will have fractured his neck, those emergency workers will just flip his car over breaking his neck and possibly paralyzing him for the rest of his life, or even worse. Don't tell us how to do our job and we won't tell them how to do theirs.
