Are you asking NHRA a question here? Hard to tell.

A fact is a statement that can proven true or false. An opinion is an expression of a person's feelings that cannot be proven. Opinions can be based on facts or emotions and sometimes are meant to deliberately mislead others.
Another words put up or shut up. |

Re: “Live” from Beech Bend Jegs Sportsnationals 2018
Obviously, when a competitor who lost a round is re instated there is something FISHY in Denmark. When an organization posts no public information then rumors begin to fly....I received a telephone call on Friday informing me of Jim’s outstanding run in Tulsa, 10 days after the Bowling Green event. According to my source Jim also pulled the trans pan and everything was OK......Thank You to the tech crew at Bowling Green and the D 4 crew for your effort in maintaining a level playing field......Congrats to Jim and Mary Hale on an outstanding run in K SA.....

This weekend he dropped the transmission pan at Tulsa to prove it did not have a trans brake but the week before would not drop the pan at Bowling Green and got DQ'd. Enough said.

My source told me Jim offered to pull the pan after the next round, win or lose. He was told no. It's now, or load it up. Seeing there's still a lot of "supposin'" going on here already, I suppose Glendora might have decided that route was a bit too extreme, and then allowed Jim to race this weekend.

Re: “Live” from Beech Bend Jegs Sportsnationals 2018
Ok I know I’m slow but almost every stocker I know of or seen race has a transbrake. Why would he be in trouble for running a transbrake in his stocker?

Uh oh... tech guys just got cold chills, they've missed all the trans brakes. Note to self bring trans pan gaskets to sell at next event.
