Don't know if I would be so sure...
Poll results might be very interesting.....
kinda agree with the tattle tale train of thought....

Second round of qualifying at a National event, a couple of years ago I forgot to put my fire pants on.....too late to do anything about it when I realized it.. I pulled my jacket down as far as I could to hide the fact. During the run, I gave it up at 1,000 ft so my time would not be better...thus a "wave thru" the scales and fuel check. Whew...I will sleep better tonight getting that off my chest...(and not worrying about a tattle tale) The truth be known, I would not try to guess how frequently drivers forget the neck support, gloves, net, etc. S-it happens.

I find it hard to believe that NHRA staff would let it go if it had been detected, so I for one would like to know the whole situation to decide for myself.

So here is what happened. I spot my buddy I the burnout box, I look over to the other car and see he just has a Tshirts an jeans on, I told myself hmmm ok whatever. They race do there deal and I realized it's kinda messed up, I was at the scale and asked him are you exempt from a fire suit , he said i don't need to wear one in I / SA , as this is happening Danny Gracia is scalling him, bottom line was he didn't forget to wear it he just said he didn't want to or have to, my whole point to this was the safety rules , it was just an odd situation I thought even with NHRA officials witnessing it. That's the deal , it's done , over with

This could be more fun to watch than full contact golf.

It wasn't your job to confront the other driver, it was either NHRA or your friend to do that. I know some guys who would give you a knuckle sandwich for getting in their business like that.

Interesting; the issue is not personal business.
Its about a rule violation and safety and Jim was competing as a racer.

So Ed, under your premise, if I see someone with a Nitrous bottle in a Stocker, although I am a competitor too, I shall remain quiet and not inform NHRA?

I'll assume he is new to stock and at least you waited until after the run, I'll never forgive the A-Hole that got in middle of my first race in stock against you.
