Not surprized at this. Scott was not entered at any Div 1 races in 08.Talked to a crew member at VMP Nats and was told every thing but the SG roadster had been sold. He said they had taken up golf

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

Wow.Please don't think in any way that this guy speaks for or is representative of Spirit filled, evangelical,Pentecostal or fundamentalist Christianity. He is a fraud. Unfortunately, there still are a few.I accepted Christ when i was 17, and have been active in various things for the Lord ever since.(I'm 54 now). If you want to see the message of Christ beilng lived out,look no further than your local Racers for Christ group, probabally at yourlocal track. They are the most dedicated genuine servants of others that I have ever seen.As far as this misguided shepard, he can have no more power than you give him. Many people seem to be able to handle poverty, but some people can't handle success.

Another great Christian drag racer (and true servant) is RFC chaplain Tom Ratliff.

I think I raced that guy in Columbus in 06 or 07. Was that his daughter or wife driving the dragster?

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

That was his wife

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

All I can say is "WOW"!
Always wondered how they afforded their racing operation, being a minister! "Robbing" their trusting members!

Some people don't care how they make a dollar !

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

Come on now folks.......... he states that all those things belong to the Church........the Bible probably told him, "Go forth with your young virgin and race my son"........ what a crock of S--t.......... next we'll be reading about how he mixed up this big batch of punch........there are good people out there, many in the racing world, working hard to bring a little bit of God into everyone's life......... and then there's a guy like this stealing in the name of God........ not that I'm a really religious person (just spiritual), but stuff like this makes me want to puke.........

Speak your mind Charlie! Say it like it is!

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

Wow what a shock......LOL.....Just how many REAL pastors, ministers or priests have I known that had big motorhomes and stacker trailers and multiple high dollar racecars,......AH, the answer is NONE.......Maybe a Coupe Deville or a "Deuce and a Quarter" here or there but no racecars........

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

WOW what a crook

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

Lou,

That was his wife? NS? I have daughters who are older. I think she went red against me, maybe she's used to early departures. I'm starting a new church, it's called "The Lord needs your money to fix a motor" church. Anyone want to contribute?

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

I'm still trying to get my Bank up and running so I can get some Gov. money for a motor !

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

I met them a few years back, pitted buy them.After a couple days figured out that was his wife and I am pretty sure the guy that travled with them and works on the cars is her dad.I asked him how he got so much time off from church,he told me this was ministry.I thought this is ONE SLICK DUDE !!

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

Testify Brother Charlie, testify!

That's EXACTLY how Jeff got started racing years ago -- God told him "Go forth with your young virgin and race my son".

I did say it was years ago, didn't I???

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

That reminds of a movie scene:

I suppose in a Ferrari they could do the work of the lord faster!

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

This is from his racing website under the "Testimony" section:

"How many young champions hang their heads, embarrassed by their olympic silver or bronze metals? Think of it, better than four billion people and beaten by one makes them a LOSER! What better example than the NFL Buffalo Bills? They were AFC Champs for four years. Were they thought of as champions? No, not champions, but Super Bowl losers. America loves WINNERS!"

:mad:

I already don't like the guy, and I've never even met him.

Re: Washington Post article about former racer
 

The first thing that comes to mind is CULT! I don't understand how people can actually be taken in by this crap! The worst thing is, this guy is protected by the law, even though he is basicly stealing millions of dollars from his "loyal followers".
I always knew he was strange and stayed away, but really...this is unbelievable!
