This sort of morphed into a discussion about Pro Stock. Are you talking about sportsman racers as there have been several over the years. As stated above, I'm betting that a lot of them have been reinstated but supposedly were 'lifetime'. Also seems like some of them might have been offered a 'go away and don't come back' offer as opposed to a public shaming. I doubt anyone is willing to publicly name names though.

One well known guy comes to my mind that sort of disappeared and I always wondered why, although I could speculate. No names.

Who was in the dirty dozen way back when. I think it had to do with the matty box. Was old man Conley [spelling] one of them. Tom

Well, think getting bounced at one event for “stretching” the rules is one thing but crap like nitrous and matty boxes is on a whole different level. Try that in some racing venues and you’d be carried out on a stretcher and when you could walk again you wouldn’t dare go back.
