OK, here's the real scoop on this. I spoke with Rick Wolf (no,not that one) an old friend from my SS days.Rick works for Morgan. He said Jones knew he could not qualify with his own motors and Morgan offered him one of his spares. Jones offered to buy it and Morgan said in jest "no, but if we meet in the final don't beat me!". When it was decided they were to run against each other in the final, Jones took the motor out and put his own back in! Morgan said don't do it but Jones said he appreciated the loan of the motor and stated he never would have even qualified without Morgan's help. What an upstanding young man! Morgan is having RJ Race Cars build his cars for next year. See how things get turned around? Thanks NHRA for getting the right "scoop". Jim
