I called Jim Skelly who was, at the time working in Ca. for the Tech Dept. to get a legal intake # and Jim told me "don't build the car, it's a mistake". Jim was going to bring to Dave Danish's(?) attention and fix it. It never got fixed. So not "anyone" else could have done it and I did my car years before Bob did his.
I don't know exactly what happened and what ensued but it sure doesn't seem to me to deserve that kind of a penalty! And it really shouldn't matter whether he was, is or has been "skirting the system" anyway. He should only be penalized for what he was caught doing at the time.
Well, did not know you had built one; therefore, Bob was the first one to show up at the track with one.
