As to Al Anabi's pulling out of North american racing operations, here is a link to a good article /interview showing how AlAnabi operates.

Very interesting read. Thank you for sharing. That is a messed up deal! I would have never known those things go on behind the scenes.

You lie down with dogs, you get up with fleas. No sympathy for anyone who sold their soul to this guy and got hosed. Even I knew it would not end well when they got involved over here and I've never even stayed at a Holiday Inn Express.

I've read many posts that the Sheik had a white powder problem over here and daddy wasn't happy.

If I recall there were statements made from Larry Dixon about there being a problem of some sort when he parted ways with them. Oil has nothing to do with this IMO.

I know I'll sound mean, but I'm not losing a wink of sleep over this, I could care less honestly, oh well.

I'm amazed that it lasted as long as it did.

Sad to see any sponsor leave the sport.

My perspective of Al Anabi story told by Kenny Nowling on dro.
Kenny reminds me of bernie madoff, tried to do good in the begining with ADRL but it fell apart and is trying to blame someone else.

If you were the sheiks father and read this story, what would you do, I can tell you, I would pull all funding because of being associated with this guy Kenny Nowling and anything associated with NHRA, Qatar does not need the bad press.

I believe there are 3 sides to this story, Sheiks, Kenny;s and the truth which we will never know.

PS keep in mind Kenny has been convicted of Money related Crimes before.
