Jim was curious how Mike Crutchfield is able to drive Lee Sharp's SS car. Mike was not entered and Lee was. We thought you can't do a driver change unless an emergency( medical or family). Lee is feeling well enough to drive comp!

It was posted on SS. Again, things that make you go hmmmm. Is NHRA trying to cover their butt for some interesting calls their people are making at some events?

Mike Crutchfield was racing for a position in the top ten. He was guaranteed entry into the World Finals just like if he had a gold card. Driver change was one of several options he had. This situation is only for the World Finals.
