Jade Avedisian And Tanner Carrick Share Thoughts On Placerville Incident

It's the fist bump that was discussed throughout the motorsports world. 

After contact between Tanner Carrick and Jade Avedisian sent Avedisian's car for a wild ride during Friday's USAC National Midget feature at Placerville Speedway, Avedisian confronted Carrick on the race track. Instead of physically confronting Carrick, giving him a good ol' drop kick or pulling the plug wires on his Keith Kunz Motorsports Midget, she simply stuck her hand out and gave her fellow competitor a fist bump.
