Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but do you ever wonder why so many non-americans hate us????????? Why spread hatred?

Don't judge a book by its cover. I personally could care less if he or she is brown, yellow or purple or green.

I don't think these guys hate americans as it seems they have surrounded themselves with some of the best american racers out there. But to anwer your questions, yes alot of the mid east folks dislike americans and will always do that, we can only hope AJ's alliance will help bridge that gap.

Sorry, I did not mean my comments to sound discriminatory as I am anything but. I have many friends and clients of various ethnicities. Call me old-fashioned but I prefer racecar sponsors to be companies (preferable automotive related) that are using drag racing as a venue to showcase/sell their products as opposed to individuals who have money to burn in a hobby.

If the Sheik is legit then his money is golden, I don't think Alan Johnson, Larry Dixon, and Del Worsham want to race so bad that they would take money from a terrorist. Everyone is entitled to an opinion but I think you might want to re think or reword what you said there Julie.

No female with any brains would ever feel comfortable around any foreign oil sheik. Nor should they: The countries that house them treat and value women worse than dogs.

Julie Jordan needs to rethink and reword absolutely nothing.

He did'nt screw up the coil wire fell off you must not have seen those mags shaking like they did on the show last night. And if you believe that the coil wire fell off I have a bridge looking for a new owner LOL

Dixon knew the wire fell off that's why he never stepped on the throttle again.
Had to keep those butterflies shut in case of low flying birds.

I agree with you Julie, but on top of that I'd wonder, why couldn't they use a Chevy, Dodge, or Ford body for their funny car instead of a Toyota???

Re: Was anyone else as uncomfortable as I was...
 
I am pretty sure that the reason they used the Toyota body is because AJ has something to do with the design or distrubution of it. I remember reading or hearing about it last year but cant remember where.
