Would not NHRA fix the problem if it were handled differently, with cooler heads than hot heads?
I can't imagine they wouldn't.

Jeff did you read the piece on insidecompracing? They did the same thing to his car in Charlotte. NHRA said they would take care of his damages. Guess what negative!! So this was round 2 with nhra tearing up his car. I'd be a little pissed off too my friend!

And you see so many comments about how this is not the old days. I can guarantee the NHRA official who hit the car and the one to told him he was diqualified can be glad that this is not the 60's and 70's. There would not be any shoving there would have been some broken faces. I could give a long list of of "famous" racers who would have still been fighting.

There is just no one responsible anymore.

NHRA just can't seem to hire near as many guys like Bill "Redman" Floyd, Dave Ley, Travis Miller, Bob Lang, or Wesley Roberson as they do people who have no respect for racers. It's a damned shame.

You have hit it on the head once again my friend!!!! The new NHRA ain't like the old NHRA for sure! Jim
