Whither the 425/427 decicion....

I spoke with Bruce B. briefly while being tech'ed at Topeka, and asked what the final decision was in the Sorenson issue. His response was that since no NHRA official observed the dumping of water/weight, that there was nothing they could do about it. I hate to say it but this sets an ill advised precedent. Apparently you can do what you want with "weight adjustment", just don't let an official see you do it. Other racers watching you do it don't count. This may not be the last time we see something like this occur.
