Some of you might have noticed a bracket car or two with bad bushings. Seeing the front wheels move back and forth while staging was a REAL safety issue.
Mark,

You are correct!
It took NHRA some time to understand it was a safety issue, especially after a wheelstand.

As I understand, it was Troy Olsonawski who brought up the issue with NHRA and the actual risk.
