You have posted the points for the pro bike battle.

I can explain why Eddie did that, Angelle was 25 points behind the points leader, he was 111 behind the leader. There is 86 reasons.

This also happens in the sportsman classes as well. Having a team car not show up, red light or shut off is the same as buying the round. Next season I should carry $20k to every event and buy rounds as needed to win a championship. No integrity in this sport, I have lost interest over the years for sure.

And your point is? Integrity leaves ANY sport when big money can buy it's way in.

I'm so glad that I'm just a poor, dumb "little guy".

I guess that answers the question of why a .9 under comp car was put up for sale lol!

The BIG QUESTION is haw is NHRA LICENSED as a SPORT or ENTERTAINMENT IF ITS A SPORT THEN ITS NOT OK, If it’s Entertainment then it’s part of the show!

Interesting interview on the NHRA YouTube channel and Joe asked Erica about the run Troy took his dive. She indicated neither her or Richard Freeman knew that Troy was going to do that…blah blah blah.

Go Greg!
