Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
It is too bad that Doug Kalitta didn't win the Championship. There is a class act.
The whole incident at Pomona took away all Steve had achieved this year. IMHO I will be surprised if NHRA does much to Steve. The team did nothing wrong, it was all Steve.

Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
Not to worry folks, NHRA is working furiously interviewing those involved and reviewing video tape evidence but took time to appoint another suit to the Board of Directors, this one with expertise in live entertainment events. In the spirit of P.T. Barnum, the show must go on! Talk about tone deaf...

Just another banker. I'm sure that she'll take care of properly investing the NHRA's profits so that those Golden Parachutes will blossom. Probably also be involved in cutting expenses to improve the bottom line.

Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
Ever coach Little League ball? Youth soccer? Same mentality here. Usually some dad, living vicariously through his son, can't keep it under control and these things happen there.It doesn't belong anywhere, but the term"professional" should result in less of it. Success sometimes breeds ego, the more success, the greater the egomania. I always wondered, how do some people we all know develop an ego problem when they not only have no success racing, they are complete failures with the rest of their lives?

Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
ST with an ego? Nah. See the hat he had on at the banquet? 10 gallon hat for a 1/2 pint brain. Nope, no ego problem.
