Default Re: Where's Paul Harvey with "The rest of the story" ???

If the championship comes down to the difference of that one round, then the second place guy was cheated. One guy has to *earn* all of his round wins, and another has some given to him.

Is it okay because it was just one round, or would it be okay if we put together a team of ten cars and work to qualify so that we could always advance certain team members into the late rounds and buy a championship?

I'm stunned that there is so little moral integrity in our sport. Y'all are welcome to your opinions. I for one will always know that everything I've won I will have earned. I needed to win one round to win the Summit Super Series at Pageland Dragway this weekend. I lost a close race to a good competitor. I'm happier knowing that I did my best, instead of paying off my opponent to give me a redlight.
