My take on all of this is that the NHRA trusted the judgement of certain employees who were either not paying attention or just didn't care and by the time it was noticed there were many people with egg on their faces and from there it was a snowball rolling down a mountain that couldn't be stopped .
Just like the economy we are on our way to getting the problem fixed ..............

Jack, NHRA and Ford and Chrysler new exactly what they were doing letting these cars run with the bogus hp ratings. You would have to be completely naive to believe anything else. It's kind of like politics in a lot of places, pay to play. Or some would call it bribery. Not exactly the behavior a non profit organization should be operating under.
