Gary Parker posted about no burnouts,was that in comments of DRC coverage?
Was there no burnouts on Lamb vs. Lambeck ?
If that is true then I just became convinced something is not right.

This is starting to remind me of NASCAR.

I think this race is the one that needs to be explained. Doesn't make sense.

Well, that was very weird! Neither car made a burnout and just pulled directly up to the starting line and staged. As soon as they staged, Lambeck drove slowly away. Lamb took the green and drove down the track right behind Lambeck. You decide what this was all about!!

I think 3 of 4 were obvious, I think it could have been done in a way that could have been a little more conspicuous and not been a slap in the face to fellow competitors. The way this thing went down was worse than Clint Bowyer's spin in the NASCAR scandal. My question is will NHRA do anything or let it go? I understand this is not professional sports but lets say some kid threw a high school or college game on purpose, what do yout think the repercussions would be? Funny thing is he appears to be very talented and may not have even needed all the shenanigans to win, guess we will never know that one. By the way,congrats to Mr Skillman on a fine season.

No dog in this fight but nothing has ever been said about bothers from Texas who just do not show up to race each other to give the round to who ever needed the points? All of them are good guys just depends what glasses you are looking threw. Tom

The loudest sound heard November 11, 2013 7:00 PST will not be the toast to Charley or the splash from the dive. The loudest sound that night and forevermore will be the sound of a hollow championship.

Diving goes on all of the time, especially among "team" cars.

I personally don't know all the racers that raced Mr. Lamb ( The New Stock Eliminator Champion) but, the car Ted Romero is driving I sold to his father Bernie Romero, unless the car has been rewired, there is a switch on the console that has to be flipped to activate the two step,( I forgot many times) are the car will launch when you try to. go on the two step. Mistakes is what separates us all from the winners circle, I just try to make less than the guy in the other lane.
