The USAC National Midget Series driver was enraged with a race official. Following the burst of fury, Thomas Meseraull lost composure and threw his steering wheel at the official. With the steering wheel hitting the official, the officials had no option but to eject him from the race. However, he garnered the fans’ backing as he was escorted out of the building for his violent attempt, as they cheered on for him with chants of ‘Tmez, Tmez, Tmez’!
