    I HAVE FIGURED IT OUT!!!!!!!!!

    I guess im not the sharpest tack in the bunch or it would have come to me earlier. JF hires old timers, relatives or newbies because they're cheap.

    John came up the hard way and doesnt see fit to pay drivers big bucks when he gives them a chance they probably wouldnt have elsewhere?

    Maybe thats why TP left?

    I could qualify as a 'newbie'

    Honestly I dont think I have enough gonads to try one of those beasts.


    Anyone hear Gary D's interview yesterday. He was talking about his sweep at indy a few years back and said something like " I won all the races and John kept all the money"


    se what I mean

    Driver's get a percentage, just like any hired gun!!!! New drivers are cheap, I like them when they think it's a good deal if you pay their way in!!!!! I'd be happy to split even with my driver-----if he wanted to split the bills, too!!!!

    What's your average RT in a F/C? Ashley is great for the sport. She'll do fine in spite of her critics.

    Critic? How about an interested observer? A fan of drag racing and those who try to tame the beast?

    Fact is if she doesnt get her britches to push the go pedal a little sooner round wins will be hard to come by. I believe she has the worst average RT in the FC class this year. She'll make it, and look at the bright side, she hasnt trashed any bodies lately and seems to have better control over the car than before.

    Well? what now. Will take some nads to get back in that thing after what happened. How will she respond? Kinda questioned the pullout after the wreck until I realized where that chassis came apart and came to the conclusion that an inspection of all JFR's chassis was probably a good idea.
    Will she race this weekend? If so, how will she do? Predictions?

    Maybe with dad hurt its time to "kick it up a notch" . I am sure her car has been tuned down for her steep learning curve.
