I was just making a statement that in the old days, even in the pro ranks, fights happened and usually worse than this one.

Why do you not reread your post here (2/17) trashing me.
It has absolutely nothing to do with this particular post.

If you ever wish to discuss this matter.....I am available at Phoenix or
Tucson. I will PM you my phone number as well.

Edit: You do not accept PM = (702) 563 - 9255 is mine
Afternoons only please.

If I recall correctly, there was an incident at an IHRA event roughly 15 years ago that involved a couple of racers/crew in a physical altercation. I think a may have protest started it all. I haven't seen the racer that was involved ever since.

John, I did go back and read that post. You are correct, it was not intended, but did sound derogatory and I apologize to you mostly and also to anyone that read it. John is and always has been a stand up guy, a good family man and a damn good racer. I can only hope none of my words in the post effected him negatively. The post HAS been deleted!

I couldn't have said it better myself Pete!

My main regret about Tanner is Erica didn't get to take him out in their rnd 2 race at the World Finals (if only her car ran the 6.517 she ran in rnd 1, in rnd 2). He got her by .02 off the line, but they both slowed to 6.56's.

Tanner is my regret also, but Grandpa, Dad and Aunt I think are pretty good people.

No I can not, but Force really showed his *** at 2009 Indy and getting in the face of Toney Pedregon.If he had thrown a sucker punch,I do not think it would have been pretty on his end.Pulled the same BS with Lee Beard.
