I was at a function where Allen Johnson was speaking once. Someone asked him about the Wayne County deal and his reply was: "I am still close friends with Darrell and Dave. Neither one has ever gave an inkling of what was happening, but (and he laughs) you know what they were doing".

Last I read, Jerry couldn't pay the whole fine, he still owed a balance of $15,000, not $1500. NHRA has finally "forgiven" the fine. If his partner was worth a damn as a man, he'd have payed the entire fine for him immediately.
