Jerry Emmons speaks his mind - Page 8

When I have been tossed or fined (Done both) it is a accumulation of
several incidents of bad judgement rather than a single action. I could
bore you with several stories, but NHRA has always warned me and I
pushed my luck.

I did not see the semi final pass.......I was racing in that round myself.
However, I did see several earlier rounds and the final at Pomona.

Just my experience = Your mileage may vary.

I agree as well....that's a bummer, but Jammin' Jerry will bounce back from that, but because of this we just might be looking at this years NHRA Stock Eliminator Champion! The last person I know who recently had to deal with adversity and rose to the top, was a certain quarterback named Tom Brady, and we know what he did now don't we???

He's certainly off to a great start!!!!
