What's wrong with Stock?

What they are not going to mention is that a proportional amount of the payout and a good chunk of the contingiency money will be going with it. You don't really think that NHRA is going to add a new elimanator and just add the money accordingly? Also, dig out some of your older Natl Dragsters and look how contingiency money has been redistributed over the last few years, money has been added for the new cars at the expense of the older combinations. Don't be fooled by press releases about how the manufacturers are adding contingiency, it's all being feed into the new cars and dropped from the older cars. I race in SS and it doesn't seem to be as big of a deal for us but Stock needs to be careful about what they wish for, I think you guys are being set up.

Bill Lumbergh: Great.
Dom Portwood: So, uh, Milton has been let go?
Bob Slydell: Well, just a second there, professor. We, uh, we fixed the *glitch*. So he won't be receiving a paycheck anymore, so it'll just work itself out naturally.
Bob Porter: We always like to avoid confrontation, whenever possible. Problem is solved from your end.
