Ty Dillon threatens fellow NASCAR driver after All-Star Open race

FOX Business correspondent Madison Alworth discusses the Pit Crew Challenge during NASCAR All-Star race weekend on ‘Fox Report.’

NASCAR Cup Series drivers Ty Dillon and Zane Smith built up some tension between themselves during All-Star Race festivities at North Wilkesboro Speedway on Sunday night.

Dillon finished in third place in the All-Star Open, six spots ahead of Smith. Unfortunately, neither driver made it to the final All-Star Race as Carson Hocevar and John Hunter Nemechek finished first and second, respectively, and earned a shot to win the $1 million grand prize.

Dillon took issue with how Smith was driving and suggested it cost him a spot in the final race of the night. He was asked what he told Smith after the race.

"Coming off (Turn) 4, I think I gave him plenty of room, and he just doors me halfway down the straightaway. … There’s something about the younger guys in the sport now. They never had to deal with consequences," he said, via Dirty Mo Media.

"So, what I told him was if he wrecks me again, I’m just gonna beat his a--."
