Duane, what is the winners purse at a NASCAR event? What is the winners purse (not contingency, that's different) for a Sportsman Racer at an NHRA event? Now cheating IS cheating and nobody dislikes cheaters more than I do BUT is it right to fine a Sportsman Racer 50% more than the cash purse for an infraction that could be deemed legal by a different Tech? Is it right to fine a Sportsman Racer for an oil down? Ya know, we don't have big $$$ sponsors picking up the tab for our fines. We aren't Professional Racers, we're Sportsman Racers and NHRA continually reminds us of that so it's perfectly clear!
