Don't forget your "formal apology" to NHRA's chief starter.

Angry Re: Who didn't see this coming? - Barton

Was`nt espn continually talking about the bike jockeys goin at in the pits. did they get fined? did they get suspended. if they didn't we are looking at a one sided organization still.






Glad to be an ex-racer.

Apologize?
Just don't patronize NHRA anymore, just like the fans didn't at Englishtown.

I would more than happy to give Dave money for the fine, But would also give more to his appeal and legal fees to bring the treatment of sportsman racers safaty just to keep on time. I am sure there are vidios , other racers statements going all the way back to the winters to bring this to a head.Many racers where put in a unsafe situation on more than one time due to poor track prep. Maybe they realy don,t know after all they realy are not racers and they do not know what it takes for a sportsman racer to get to there inhanced show. There meger attemp to raise monies with fines lately to make up on lost revenews shows there desperation to make ends meet. I am sure weather has hit there pocket book with houston and atlanta hard with lost income. { Ken how about getting spell check on here?} Tom

I can't help but wonder how NHRA would've handled it if, when Stock/SS were called to the lanes, all the competitors drove right past the staging director and parked on the track in protest.
