Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
Emotions running high, everyone tighter than a piano spring. Right or wrong, Torrence thought the guy was trying to screw him up rather than race him clean at the climax moment of the season.
Understandable he would be cranked up when he got out of the car. He's high strung anyway. Agreed, he shouldn't have gone hands on. They shook hands, made up, maybe have a laugh over a beer and become pals. No one knows what transpired after the fact. Ferre gets noticed, maybe some new found notoriety. It's over with. If NHRA wants to fine him and maybe dock him points for a race next year, after all the banquet festivities are over, that would make sense. |

Was Autostart turned-off? Were they holding the tree for DEEP??????? Get real! He got hung-out for a tad bit, but ALL WITHIN THE RULES! And when he finally staged he rolled right into DEEP! Did John Force get slapped, punched, yelled-at by anyone he Deep Staged against this year? Did John Force NOT race cleanly????????? I was a Steve Torrence fan, but after that bull**** ***** slap, he can go ***** himself! People with money think they can do as they please. Doug Herbert would have folded him up like a suitcase! |

Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
The Torrences have been our close friends for over 20 years.Nothing was given to them.They are fierce competiters in business,sports and life in general.They are hard working,good people.As long as there is competition,there will be altercations.If you have never had the desire to give someone a shove,you probably need to get your testosterone level checked.Congratulations to Steve,Billy,Kay and all those Capco Boys!

Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
Biggest problem I have with this is it was done right in front of an official. if any of us would have done that we would’ve been immediately suspended. why the double standard???? Shouldn’t the rules be enforced the same?

Re: NHRA rules for everyone but STEVE TORRANCE
NHRA posted "We are evaluating the matter and any potential penalties will be assessed after a thorough review".NHRA has to be aware of whatever penalties are given (if any) it will set a precedent for future similar incidents in all classes.They may just impose a"big fine" and a public apology which would not be acceptable.Have to see how it plays out...gsa612
