The illegal carb thing is Wrong! As a Div 6 H/SA competitor I was not in Medford, if I was I would be PISSED! That being said I have met Chris and I think he is a great guy, he and his team are always out to have fun. Those out here in the 6 have seen me trying and fighting with my car getting it to run, sometimes it works ,sometimes not, and sometimes it breaks. In all of that my thought process has never been to use illegal parts. I was at the Seattle divisional when the team mentioned was punted and i feel the same then as I do now...WHY? Running under index knowing your car is legit is almost euphoric ,as it is something not everyone can do, almost as good as winning an event. At the very least he admittted the wrong doing but at the end of the day is the price worth it? Respect of the fellow racers isnt easily gotten but easily lost, the tech dept. will bring out the microscope (hopefully) and the outcome of an important race was changed.

Phil saying Toby smells like the Troll that is harsh. He was just pointing out it was wrong and did not bring it up until Chris's story came out. What happen in Medford was policed by the racers that brought it up there at the track to Chris and said it was not right at that point they did not show for the first round because they saw it was not right. Is Toby wearing his Wagons of Steel tee shirt today at the Finals. The same can be said about the Seattle incident it was brought up by the racers it was wrong and was delt with by tech the people that brought it up to tech have no problem telling they were the ones who pointed it out. I was at both of these races and I think it all worked itself out in the end. Chris is a stand up guy and taking his lumps know. Lessons learned you can learn from others mistakes.
