Like I said earlier in a post, Steve Grebeck was killed due to a TRACTION PROBLEM.
Like Rodney and others have said, the car moves around when traction goes away or is returned. Milan has never been known for outstanding track prep, period. Even at the high dollar Super Ford events. So blame it on something else, GEORGE, vs Arnie being over 80 years old and unable in your opinion to drive a car safely at Milan.
