While I agree that it's a good idea that no person convicted of a crime against children should be allowed to particpate in our sport, it may be difficult to A) ban one person, and B) ban people convicted of only one type of crime. Maybe it needs to be written into the NHRA bylaws that ANYONE CONVICTED OF A FELONY WILL BE SUSPENDED. Let's also ban anyone with a drug conviction, or anyone caught using drugs at an NHRA-sanctioned event. Realistically: the people who haven't been caught yet are the people to worry about....

Smokin a doob vs. getting caught with child porn is like comparing apples to oranges.

Re: Online Petition
 

but according to the nhra rule book if you get caught smoking a joint or any drug conviction they can suspend you.page 255 nhra rule book under disqualification. i guess they feel that the danger of you driving a racecar stoned is more likely than you molesting somebody on the track.
even though i agree with this post, he should be locked up for life, and the judge that accepted the plea should be thrown of the bench and disbared.same for the district attorney

Thanks for pointing that out Jeff, honestly I was unaware of that rule. Is there anything about pedophiles in the rule book? If not I believe personally something should be put into effect.

Hello All,
I'm new on the site and just wanted to throw my two cents in for what it's worth. Some bad things happened here and unfortunately it's all out of our control. I for one do not know all of the details nor do I care to find out more. For you parents out there... Many things can hurt your children both at the track and at home so keep your eye on the ball and please pay attention to the things that really matter and that you can have influence over. This one is in the books so move on?

On this particular issue NHRA will take the fifth as they would likely be sued if any additional restrictions were made against the defendant.

JM?
