Paul has been torn down several times in that car and has always passed.

I do not like this approach either. Just because someone has passed previously should not matter. Bobby Brannon was torn down at Indy (piston modification discrepancy) and then showed up at Dallas apart (2 Weeks ago!) and was verified there before he was allowed to race.

If they are operating under the "torn down many times" conditions, I would think a guy that was just torn down 2 weeks ago would fall under that. Yet, Bobby was torn down in Vegas again.

I am not saying Paul wouldnt pass tear down, but if we are going to start tearing down 1.20+ under runs, then they should get ALL of them.

I was fully prepared for the tear down. I even had help come out so I could get it done quickly. There was no mention of bringing the car up, so I figured I was getting the power and that was that. I have done many late notice tear downs some in the dark even. Even one at Indy when they were calling for me and a couple other racers. I was the only one to show up on for Friday afternoon when the other racers left the property.

My post was nothing negative about you. You have a good reputation in our community. My point is still that everyone should be torn down that gets a "Tuesday adjustment" on any combination.

I think that I was probably the first to do this in recent times. I know how that all came about and still feel that it was a good call on the NHRA's part.

As for Vegas, the car that I was most interested in was torn down and passed.....
