Please don't lump all NHRA crew in the lack of integrity pot. I agree there needs to be some changes with the higher ups.
I work safety occassionally on one of the trackside trucks. We are always looking for people with helmets off or loosened belts even before they turn the corner. We try to politely ask the drivers to keep that stuff on until they are off the track. I can't tell you the number of times we have been flipped off, F bombed, and basically ignored by racers. Most racers follow the rules, but some dont.
