"A noose is a slip knot. The rope used to pull a garage door would not be a slip knot, otherwise it would cinch on your your fingers."

No, it's not a slip knot, it's bowline knot that doesn't tighten when pulled. Which begs the questions:
1. Why do they even need a rope when the garage door has a handle?
2. Why the makeshift handle (loop) at the end of the rope?

1. Some of the crew may not be able to reach the installed handle when the door is up.
2. As for the loop, think mechanics with oily/greasy hands that diminish the grip on the rope - so the need for the loop to wrap fingers/hand around. Plus it gives weight to the rope so as not to sway around and keeps the end from getting frayed.

Wallace said he's never seen such a loop in all his years of racing. He has either never noticed them or is lying. After doubling down with CNN and the View, now he admits it wasn't made for him, but still insists it is a noose. This guy is allowed to travel at 200mph next to other mature drivers?

Someone needs to tell Bubba Smolett that 1,300 white men were also lynched in the South.

Lol! One way to get back at Richard Petty MS is to remind them of how sexist they were towards Danica Patrick when she raced.

Petty Sr. and Jr.were very sexist towards Danica Patrick. Someone on Twitter should point this out.....
