    You ignorant redneck...

    ....you used "too" the wrong way.

    You must be in with that Titusville bunch. Or is that a racial slur too?

      Haha, oh my educated firefighter friend from Palmetto, who would have known? Thanks for pointing out my improper use of the English language, must have been late.

      "I guess a more intellectual question would have been what the "racial slur" was in reference too?

      It should have said, "I guess a more intellectual question would have been was the racial slur a reference tool?"

      Sincerely,
      The cracker from Titsville

            On Wednesday, NASCAR announced it had "indefinitely suspended" Nationwide Series driver Jeremy Clements for making "an intolerable and insensitive remark" that violated its code of conduct.

            They did not, however, specify exactly what Clements said, and neither did Clements when he gave an interview to ESPN about the suspension. But he did confirm that the comment was racial in context, and said that he made it in the presence of a NASCAR employee and an MTV reporter.

            Several other outlets picked up on the story, and quickly figured out that reporter was Marty Beckerman, an associate editor for MTV's Guy Code blog, an extension of MTV2's "Guy Code" television series, which takes a humorous look at "the laws of manhood." Beckerman was covering last weekend's NASCAR events at the Daytona International Speedway and spoke to several drivers.

            As the news of Clements' suspension — and speculation over just what he said — began to spread, Beckerman remained silent... until he sat down with MTV News to speak about what happened in Daytona.

            "I was there to do a fish-out-of-water story about going to NASCAR and having a wild, crazy weekend. And, we were doing interviews with many of the drivers, and I was on the way to another interview — we were looking for [driver] Johanna Long's trailer — and the NASCAR publicist called Mr. Clements over and asked him for help finding her," Beckerman said. "He walked us toward where she was, and on the way over, I explained to him that Guy Code is rules for guys, how you treat your friends, how you treat your ladies, things like that. I was there to do a humor piece, so I asked him what would be Guy Code for race car drivers, and he blurted out [a phrase that used the n-word]."

            Beckerman said that Clements didn't use the phrase in reference to any specific driver, but was instead illustrating that "if you drive roughly, you'll be treated roughly." He wrote the quote down in his notes (the conversation was not recorded) and, since he was in the presence of a NASCAR publicist, continued to speak with Clements for a few more minutes, before going to interview Long. Then, on Thursday morning, as the story continued to unfold, Clements called him to discuss the quote and let it be known that he regretted making it.

                I am almost certain if you use that term in DC, Detroit or Chicago it will harm you.

                Speaking of which, I must get back to African engineering my barn...
