I have some insights into NHRA - PLUS I am a accountant by education: If this Virus ends our racing for the year, I am concerned the NHRA organization may well be finished and done anyway.

Re: Lawsuit over cylinder heads
Just my thoughts, observations, and opinions. IHRA survived for 5 to 7 years on potted meat, beanie weenies, and RC colas. NHRA won't last a year under the same conditions.

Re: Lawsuit over cylinder heads
Some things aren't always as they appear. Greg Foreman, Mike Graham, the Langdon Brothers, the Morenos, Richey Pauley and a few other SoCal "long timers" Tim and I both grew up around these guys, and he spent a lot of time doing FE heads with Greg at Dyno Don's shop. Not active as a driver in class racing, he fell deep into the S/SS hole decades ago. Like many others here, Tim's been in and out of this circus, but definitely not a newby by any stretch and gets it. Just my $.02.

Re: Lawsuit over cylinder heads
Sean you have to agree this is bigger than a black eye for Gulius if it's true because John's name isn't exactly unknown in these parts. What's disturbing is for John to come forth now, instead of much sooner. Tim simply stumbled on a disturbing piece of public information and is very familiar with all the names listed. It makes class racing look bad when money has been allowed to push the envelope until blatantly obvious. We have seen smaller infractions from private owner/builders get heavy handed punishment. Deja vu several years ago when Aluise took NHRA to court for a similar issue after being tossed. Nobody won. All it did was create more friction between NHRA and even between racers. This case will make the Aluise case look like child's play if it goes forward, which I hope doesn't for the sake of the sport. If Gulius and/or all the other engine guys did nothing wrong, there's no issue. But we have all heard it too many times in tech. I pray they can all settle up and Gulius is paid some form of restitution.

Like Sean stated earlier, the problem with the posting is making comments without knowing all the facts of the case. By the way, I am very familiar with PACER and you just don't "stumble" into information or just falls on your lap. PACER is a legal search database and you must perform the search on a specific term, name or phrase. Therefore, my speculation is the search was performed based on statements made by others, rumor, casual talk or gossip without knowing the actual facts of the case. |
