Mickey, I sold all my stuff 3 years ago. Now I spend my time driving a flat bed and working on a '65 mustang and a '65 rambler american wagon. Also learning to master the fine art of accuracy with black powder muzzleloaders . 50 yds no problem,100 yds not so easy.

If that's what you've been working on besides cars I'm glad I got out of Jersey....buncha Yankees (sorry, had to throw that in there).

Well its been a week, no reply at all from IHRA is this just going to be swept under the rug?
If, and I stress IF this was an electronics being found issue, and nothing is done other than a DQ, than I would say this was a cowardly act on IHRA's part not to hold said racer accountable and keep a fair and honest playing field for everyone. To me that type of infraction is the same intent as steeling from other competitors. either way, we should know why the DQ.

Not saying this is right but, tough for IHRA to suspend a guy that supports IHRA. They already have to deal with very low car counts at most events.

That's exactly what I was saying. Just because they don't announce something doesn't mean it didn't happen. Robert Staton was suspended indefinitely (http://www.ihra.com/competition/comp...t/category/200) many years ago. I was working for IHRA at the time and physically held his homemade delay device in my hand. If this was a similar incident and not dealt with in the same fashion, then it constitutes a MAJOR problem.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! Rules are rules.

With proper rules enforcement, car counts go UP. They have been more proactive in the last year or two, and car counts have been going up. Piedmont, Richmond, and Farmington were all strong events.

Agree 100%. We all spend hundreds of hours and thousands of dollars on our cars to make them faster, to make them more consistent, and practice to drive them better. In this situation if IHRA doesnt make a decision for a suspension or lifetime ban I for one will not support them anymore. I can't speak for my father and brothers but I'm sure they feel the same way. Jeff Longhany

If nothing is done they stand to lose more than just his one car. Many are waiting to see if action will be taken and if nothing happens credibility will be lost.
