Rock,

Glad to hear you will mention it to Brad, I would hate to see him get hurt. I do agree that the racers need to be responsible for themselves, however, I also disagree that it isn't an NHRA problem. They must hold a consistent standard on rule application. While I realize they can not see every driver in every run, they can take a little responsibility with their publications and not print color glossy photos showing clear violations. Thumb back through the issues this year, Brad certainly is not the only one caught on camera and printed by the NHRA's publication. We used to fight this when the kids were in Jr.'s and it was tough. But when they see the big guys do it, then it gets even harder to get them to keep their belts tight.

Thanks for taking an interest in this topic. See ya in Stanton??

Ron
