Mickey always has something to say. LOL.
I understand the need to follow the rules, especially safety.
What is it that you really would like to see as an outcome as a result of you choosing this forum to review this rules violation in public?
I know you were there, and you witnessed this, did you consider notifying an official in the name of safety or to overturn the run or?
Did you consider reminding the competitor in person as a sportsmanlike reminder. I mean, we all can be forgetful.
Did you draft a letter to the div tech director to request that NHRA be more vigilant in its oversight of safety?
Or did you want to rant about someone that beat someone else and try to get everyone on line to fall in line and demand the racer turn back the round points or whatever he gained.
In my opinion, unless you take some real action with NHRA on your part, based upon your first hand observations, nothing will change going forward.
By the way, I don't know any of the parties involved. I would think it reasonable for NHRA to police this. Believe me, if they tossed someone for going past the ready line without this gear on, it would fix it.
