Dont normally watch live broadcast of NHRA as it is mostly all big Money show TF/FC AND PRO STOCK aka John Force Show, but today watching as it was too cold to do anything else, witnessed a SO CALLED Professional driver sucker punch another competitor on live TV and get away with it just because he is who he is, BS--he should had been fined points and time out for the next season but instead he gets presented the National Title, if that had been a Sportsman Racer , you would have been banned from competition for in definate time and lost your points for the race as well...Just goes to prove who the NHRA really cares about....The action of Torrance is unacceptable

I agree with you. Torrence only did that to him because he figured he could get away with it. Anyone else and little Torrence probably would not have been able to make the next rd.

Had to do a search to see. I totally agree. He should have been escorted off the property, fined and suspension.

And all because the kid took his time and then deep staged. What a load of BS!

Unbelievable!!!! any sportsman racer would’ve been disqualified from that race and probably all next season, money talks.
There was a threat that occurred to another racer at Atco and said racer was disqualified immediately and for the rest of the year! Come on Nhra no double standards

If NHRA is going to promote this they need to get him some fight lesson or maybe one of his fellow Texans could teach him. Erica is from Texas my she could teach him how to fight she would have done a better job.
