AARO FaceSpace Thread

@AlexJates: oh snap #beauflex

@KodyLachner: F....FFFFFFFFF

@atomlinson: After a quiet couple of weeks, the trade front is starting to blaze again. Niklas Hyerski is being shopped after a tough start to 2018.

@JeffKlingerAARO: Hearing the AARO has concluded it’s investigation of Scawles Racing Team and Kody Lachner. Official word shortly.

@AARO: At this time, we have concluded our investigation regarding Scawles Racing Team and Kody Lachner. Both teams and their drivers are once again allowed to speak to media.

@JeffKlinger: Ahhh...my favorite weekend of the year! Nice to have two weeks here in Florida with Daytona kicking us off in the sunshine state!

@DerekAnistAARO: ANS practice underway with AERS practice already concluded. Jalen Scransen with the fastest time. He won here in 2014.

@BKurtis12: P6!!! Career best, and s/o to @KJe22, for showing his talents, and P12 in second start!. #SGRrising..

@KJe22: @BKurtis12, we could've had the car to win if it wasn't ruined.

@WalterGreen: That god-damn 26 car drove me straight into the grass. you know there are other ways to respond if a car is on your inside...

@RobertCorrellAARO: Looking like clear skies all weekend here in Daytona. And, before you ask, no. I don't plan on doing any swimming in the Atlantic!

@RobertCorrellAARO: Troy Holliday has told #DailyDriver that he wasn't too impressed with the lack of starts in the first two races. Feels Kinsin's performance in particular has been 'unacceptable'. Also said Fermanian caught his eye in ANS. #AARO #HollidayInc

@ElectricWolf87: Hearing that that shaftlund guy might be coming back. Get your dinners ready; stove's about to heat up. #AARO

@Beugnet30: Bonne chance à tous!

@AAROshaftlund: Fired up the xbox today played a few games on hockey on easy mode. Great way to let out some anger! #lol

But in all seriousness, back at the track for the first time since rehab. Thanks to everyone for the warm welcome back!

@ShawnGlossum9: Had the car at Boston, tough to not close it out. I made mistakes and I am still learning ! Bring on daytona !

@SceneZombie: @Beugnet30 Bone appetit baguette croissant

@DerekAnistAARO: @GarthEnterprises has hired former driver Mario Lancer as the teams new General Manager. Florence Garth will continue owner responsibilities but will take a backseat to management.

@DerekAnistAARO: “I intend to take a long term approach with this team—however do not expect any immediate moves. We will only be making moves we feel are necessary to our program.” - New Garth GM Mario Lancer.

@RobertCorrellAARO: Raindrops falling here at Homestead-Miami. Forecasts aren't looking too optimistic and, in the event of a cancellation, the field could be set based on drivers' points. #AARO

@ElectricWolf87: Maybe I can have a decent run at this Florida track provided we get going at all! #rainraingoaway

2 hours later

@RobertCorrellAARO: Might not be as bad as it looks on the forecast. Light sprinkles now, and even that seems to be fading. Looks like AERS pole qualifying will continue as scheduled. #AERS

@JeffKlinger: Safety concerns is the trending topic around the garage area here at Miami and on social media. Clyde Latinger told me this morning after practice, “We’re going way too fast”. Crazy a race car driver would ever say that.

@SceneZombie: Got the pole, you know what that means. #CromptonIsSittingOnThePoleWhichIsAStatementOfFactAndInNoWayACommentOnHisSexualOrientation

@ElectricWolf87: @SceneZombie gey

@AAROshaftlund: AARO investigating Casey Lester's FaceSpace comments regarding sensitive information. Stay tuned.

IanRapoport: Tom Brady suspended six games for being "generally aware" of Lester's comments.

LMAO

@JeffKlinger: Happy race day! Cars lined up along the pits, should be getting ceremonies and the like underway soon!

@SceneZombie: @ElectricWolf87 that is FAKE NEWS #wrong #SAD!

@ElectricWolf87: I did not like what I saw there... 53 car needs to be parked for next race. Heard some people say he was frustrated over the radio. Inexcusable behavior.

@BjornBrewerOfficial: I know I'm one to talk but the drivings gotta get cleaned up, that was scary, really hoping @NathanSmith83Official and @SceneZombie are ok!!

@Beugnet30: J'envoie mes meilleurs voeux et espère un prompt rétablissement! @SceneZombie @NathanSmith83Official

@ElectricWolf87: @SceneZombie Dunno who the f**k told you he did burnouts after a red flag period, but that was not the case. He was not radioed of the accident until after the celebrations were done. 39 had a malfunction on the radio late in the race. I'm glad you're okay but jesus calm the whining down and get your s**t straight.

@ACSofficial: Drivers Nathan Smith and Carson Crompton are preemptively cleared for Darlington.  Crompton is still in the early stages of the concussion protocol but thus far seems to be doing well.  He complained of no other injuries or symptoms other than a headache.  Nathan Smith continues to nurse what appear to be sprained ankles.  Cursory scans were negative, and we will know in the next few hours if anything like a hairline fracture has occurred.

@SceneZombie: @Beugnet30 Pardon my French but...
I don't know what any of that says but I presume its nice so thank you #THANCC #5BaguettesOutOf5

@NathanSmith83: Really concerned about safety not only related to the tracks but the drivers.  We aren't unskilled or inattentive, for some reason though we continue to simply not slow down.  Even though many have come to my defense I still could've done a better job.  Glad everyone is (relatively) okay.

@SceneZombie:  Lachner, Knee, Phillips, McGuire, Dwyer.  You do not want your name added to this list.

@KJe22: Not the weekend that we wanted, I'm sorry for my guys for tearing up that car, and the 9, should've been more conservative...

@SceneZombie: I have been informed of a radio malfunction that prevented Mikael Carter from knowing the extent of the wreck. I'm sorry I guess? JN can build really fast cars but not functioning radios apparently

@AlexJates: Classless move

@TylerDeefer: Stay classy #uknow

@DerekAnistAARO: Wow.

@KashMoney0: Speechless...sick to my stomach!!

@TRitcher: Hope everyone is okay!!!

@JWalter: @MikaelCarter you’re a fucking pussy. Fuck you for that classless act at the end of the race.
-> @MikaelCarter: @JWalter — u back on the booze already? #DNQ

@JalenScransen26: Utter disaster, glad to make it out alive. Stay safe everyone.

@Beugnet30: @SceneZombie I wish best of luck to you! Sorry my English not so good so I use French instead! Glad you are okay!

@ElectricWolf87: @SceneZombie I apologize. That was excessive of me to get that upset. Apparently I misheard the radio malfunction thing too... not sure what to believe right now.

@juvenile65: @TylerDeefer figured ima give you a heads up fuckwad

@AlainCharpentierAARO: Looking like there will be plenty of penalties and fines to go around following the Miami festivities. Awfully intense in the garage right now. #AARO #OutbackSteakhouse200

@ScawlesRacingTeam: We have released spotter George Farrell for the #10 team. We are now taking applications for the position.

@FloGarth: I stand by my driver. Kody did not do a single thing wrong and is getting crucified for it. The AARO should be ashamed at their handling of this situation, and for the penalties given to our team.

@AARO_PR: Kody Lachner has been fined $15K, will start at rear of Armor All 200, placed on temporary suspension. Crew chief Whitmore fined $7K, suspended for 3 races. Garth Enterprises fined $30K + $1M in expenses paid.

@JeffKlinger: Kody Lachner is NOT suspended...well, not yet. His temporary suspension is cautionary as they investigate deeper into the incident. It’s likely it is lifted by Darlington weekend. More penalties to be announced as the day goes on.

@JNMotorsports: Statement from team President Marc-Andre Smyth regarding Outback Steakhouse 200:

“We are deeply saddened by our teams actions following the Outback Steakhouse 200 and sincerely apologize to ACS Racing, Carson Crompton, Nate Smith, and Patrick McKenzie for the acts that followed the event. While our driver Mikael Carter was celebrating, he did not understand the severity of the situation unfolding in the first turn. He has since apologized and reflected poorly on his actions that followed, race win or not. We are complying with the league and it’s officials on the ongoing post race investigations. Thank you.”

@JeffKlinger: Oh boy...Roger Renesse interview with RPM Tv today...little tidbit below on Lachner:

“Kody came into our organization as a hard-working, young talent that we had hoped to develop and keep in our system for a long time. Over time, Kody let people get to him and his attitude and demeanor changed. Before it got out of control we decided to move on, and offered to help him with his personal life. Obviously now he’s developed a reputation and continues to put himself in bad light. It’s unfortunate, but we’re glad to have moved on.”

@JeffKlinger: Lachner hate is getting a bit out of hand by fans. He’s a good driver, just needs to focus on driving.

@atomlinson: Hearing Patrick McKenzie has requested a move from Garth Enterprises.
