NHRA Levied Actions Against Don Davidson

[Greenlight]

Let's weigh his options.

Pay the $1000, take a day off of work and attend the No Problem Div 4 race in June at a cost of $1000 (counting missed days work, travel expenses, entry, etc.). Have a 1 in 59 chance of winning (# of entries in 2013).

or...........

Save his $1000 in fines and spend it going to a few IHRA races.

He could attend 2 races (Sat. & Sun.) on May 30/Jun1 in San Antonio (same distance as Belle Rose = same travel expense) and have a 1 in 20 chance (# of entries in 2013) on each day.

and attend the Memphis IHRA race on June 14/15(same distance and chance of winning at San Antonio race).

then,

attend 2 more IHRA races on July 11/12 at Pine Valley (80 miles from his home).

his net out of pocket expenses will be about the same for attending 6 IHRA races as attending one NHRA race and didn't have to take a day off of work.

If he wins one of the six races (each which have better odds of winning) he can take his winnings and pay NHRA the $1000 and begin receiving his cruel and unusually punishment again.

I'm no Harvard graduate, but I know what I would do.

The grass may actually be greener on the other side of the fence in this case.

*Edit: AND, as a silent protest to Don's cruel and unusual punishment perhaps a few other Stock/Super Stock racers should stand behind Don and consider missing the NHRA race at No Problem and attend the IHRA races.
