I spoke with a couple of Division Directors today. Apparently they aren't telling the guys in the field much. Josh Peake (D2 DD) says he has heard nothing about all this. But I asked him that if he were the company CEO, would he tell his workers 6 months ahead that they would not have a job Jan1, 2017. He said no and that he sees my point. This is the way it's done in the corporate world. They wait until Friday to tell the workers not to come in on Monday! I'm sure some of you reading this can relate.

Those of you who have not run with the IHRA and think this will not affect you, think again! We had a huge scare several years ago with NHRA, remember? This could initiate a domino effect with NHRA. Are you willing to gamble with it? I would ask that ALL racers get involved and do your own investigation on this situation. Call Mike Dunn (417) 660-4207 and ask him! Call Scooter Peaco (419) 660-4217 and ask him. I am only one person. If more of us called and showed concern maybe they would rethink this! It's worth a try! Jim
