SSDIV6, I disagree, I read Howard's comments like this: certain racers have a degree of cachet with the decision makers...and DeFranks are WELL EARNED by their support and achievements, absolutely NO PROBLEM with them at all, the problem continues to be NHRA's uneven application of decisions across the board.

I have always been told, "you stage...you own it".....so reruns for all with "glitches" in EVERY ROUND or NO RERUNS....NHRA should make the call and enforce it.....no sitting on the line holding the race up lobbying....just back it out and accept it.

We all can come up with this scenario or that. The tree is our umpire or ref,,,they make bad calls, its part of the game....replays suck.....you stage, you own it...whatever happens...its not a perfect world....just let us know what to expect (ALL THE TIME)
