NHRA lacks the finances to enhance the Safety Safari ?

Nope! I will use it if necessary, but this incident did not warrant lethal action! And I have carried with permit for over 40 years.

Good to hear. I was saying IF someone attacked a member of your family what would you do ?
I used to live in a commie state (Maryland) where we could not carry legally !
In Fla. its a felony to scream or yell at someone over the age of 55 and threaten physical harm. I'm 73 that's why I say screw'em. Pomona is in a Commie state !

It is a strange world we live in now. And I agree, some of these states and organisations have some socialist tendencies. Set rules and stand behind/enforce them equally.

Torrence publicly apologized for his conduct at the season-end awards ceremony on November 18, 2019. Torrence has been fined twenty-five thousand dollars ($25,000) and must complete anger management sessions. The fine will be dedicated to enhancing the capabilities of the Safety Safari. The action is appealable.

Gee, I hope that NHRA televises the anger management sessions!

This just in, 25 grand fine and anger management classes for the young man from NHRA

Maybe the NHRA are giving the anger management classes so they can get some more of our money back!

He will probably buy his way out of the anger mgmt. classes or pay someone to attend for him. Something like the College scandal now ongoing.
He will learn nothing from all this and do it again in the not to distant future.
At 70 years old I have seen this more than once and people like Steve never change.
I am surprised he did not do something like this earlier after watching some of his interviews.

Torrence penalty is the best thing to happen to sportsman racing.
Do not like a competitor, shake his hand, smack him in the face. Penalized 5 percent of the winners payout (divisional would be $62.50 or so)and go on to the next round. Oh and attend anger management classes. I am guessing there are going to be a lot of racers in these classes. Livefeed going to need a top end camera for all the races
