Just saying but what do I know. I am old. Lol
Bobby, you're no dummy, that's for damned sure.

Also, Bill is correct, these decisions were a long time in the making. If they were really upset about Miss Force's photos, you'd have heard some statements distancing themselves from the Force group.

The fact is, like him or not, Force is a big personality, he's quick to give credit to those behind him, he's quick to say what is on his mind, the guy is candid, all of that is good for the sport. His "rags to riches" story is very good for business, in many ways.

I find it amusing how people with extoll the virtues of that B.S. Asher spewed, while at the same time they bad mouth Force. Well, Force, his personality, and his showmanship is what Asher says is needed.

That's not to say that I agree with Asher, because I absolutely do not agree that we need a "show" at the expense of real racing. It's not working for NASCAR. It won't work for NHRA.
