For me it was a lively discussion but Pat seemed to think I was badgering him when I simply asked for explanations. Right off the bat, he said wheelie bars were not used by Stockers for safety reasons. And no one in nhra believes we use them for safety reasons. Why would we spend the money and time to install them if not for safety reasons? BTW, he did not answer a single question and was unhappy with me when the conversation ended. I guess he was unhappy because I needed real answers. These guys are used to one way conversations and quickly become testy when asked to explain their reasoning on the issues. That behavior does nothing for the sport.
