I am not so sure, Toby. In the case of Jerry Echman, I believe that the entire team was suspended........However, obviously, that was a completely different situation.
I was DQ'd for an engine infraction and we had conversation about suspension and a fine. NHRA chose to do neither due to the minor nature of the infraction......But, they could have. My wife is the owner of our car.......no mention was made of suspending her, even though her name is on the tech card as owner.

Regarding this suspension, I believe that you all have read the NHRA report......"Counterfeit" SFI tags............nothing more or nothing less. They didn't say that they are bad people (they aren't), or anything else.
