[todd scheerer]

The notes from Gainesville Comp session #1 refer to a cleanup. Who got the first fine???

One race and already a fine,that kills the theory that it was just a scare tactic.

They weren't running pro's yesterday so no doubt there were few fans in the stands, and comp was the last thing on the track. And drag race central said it was 3:53 when they were done with the cleanup when comp wasn't suppose to start til 4 pm. So the horrible downtime wasn't much a factor... hmmm... Did he have a diaper on his car? I would be less than pleased to pay a fine for that.

Looks like Pat Ross oiled the track at the hit, DRC said it was an axle that broke...The equiptment had to roll so there was my point. He might have spent 400 plus dollars on a diaper and yet will still be getting fined because his axle broke.....I'll be courious to see how that plays out..

Fining a sportsman racer.......Who would have thought??????

 

[Ric Wallin]

Its not 400.00 for a diaper I sell them 260.00 7.2SFI J+J Engine diaper
Even with out the fines or mandate to have one It is the cheapest insurance for saving a race car at 180MPH I have seen cars hit the wall and roll from oil on the rear tires My web page is www.racediaper.com or call me 3306060176

Lonnie Johnson lost a trans dip stick tube and got a warning. Ross broke an axle. Gracia looked at it but no one knows if a fine will be levied. Royce Freeman also oiled the track, as well as an alcohol car and Mickey Whaley did it in stock on Saturday morning.

[Shane Heckel]

Count us in too!!!

 

[todd scheerer]

What is the enforcement procedure NHRA is using? Do they not allow further competition until the fine is paid? Does a 'ban' apply to division races too? Do they have a financing plan?

Inquiring minds want to know...

[Steve Polhill]

I'll find out where we are all going to send the money and let everyone know where to send it..

 

[Al Lyda]

A sportsman boycott of 1 or 2 races would stop the fines and diaper insanity.
