The IMSA Weathertech Series (sports cars that race 24 Hours of Daytona, Petit Le Mans, etc) has cancelled races scheduled for Laguna Seca in CA and Watkins Glen in NY, and replaced them on the schedule with a Labor Day race at Road Atlanta here in Georgia.

This is interesting BECAUSE - it indicates that sanctioning bodies think they can do business in Georgia, and might mean that the NHRA event planned for Atlanta Dragway the week before Labor Day still has a good chance.

I believe IMSA is owned by NASCAR, FWIW.

I believed Atlanta's national event would be cancelled as would all others before this mornings news of how the...

"virus blazed through the community of about 600 campers and counselors in Georgia, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported on Friday." Now I'm convinced.

That said, This thread was/is about John Force Racing sitting out the remainder of the season which I broke the story here 31 days ago, not my or anyone else's opinion as to when the NHRA will pull the plug on the Mello Yello Drag Racing Series and possibly the Lucas Oil Drag Racing Series too.

You were pretty clear on your opinion. Keep flopping like a Hypocritical Democrat, you are good at it.

not pretty clear, abundantly clear as to my opinion that the NHRA will pull the plug on the season. I was convinced 31 days ago and I'm more convinced now.

To my knowledge, none of the 600 are actually SICK, they just tested positive for the virus.

that's most everywhere in the country. Positive cases are going up because more people are being tested. Deaths are not going up.

This country has been transformed into a cesspool of liars and cheats.

And a low IQ populace that bends over and holds its azz cheeks open for officials, on command.

The general consensus is it's perfectly normal to lie and cheat.

A Satanic chit hole.

Ed, deaths in Fla are setting new records every day. It’s very sad because many came here to retire. It’s actually higher than shown bc the Governor only reports residents, not visitors.
I lost an old friend Saturday.

We have raced 8 Summit ET races this year so far & had 12 races scheduled. Looks like we might get 1 or 2 more done. As for the Bracket Finals, I don't think it will happen. Our home track is Las Vegas.

Unfortunately not all reported deaths are actual covid related . I know this for a fact.

You DID NOT BREAK this story. This story (rumor at the time) was first posted on social media 3 days prior to you posting it here. So once again another round of BS!

Again, azzwipe I died in fact break the story here on Bracket Talk. Further, as I have stated, my information came directly from NHRA officials!

I wouldn't know what is posted on "social media"

28 days days after I broke the news here, JFR finally came out of hiding and confirmed the worse keep secret in all of auto racing.

No one cares that you don't like the TRUTH and the FACTS! More to point, I was right! Spitting

And 31 days after it was posted on social media JFR came out of hiding. Doesn't matter if you have social media or not but that doesn't mean people dont talk and spread it by mouth. Matter of fact im still waiting to hear that great press release by the NHRA and John Force, you know the one you said their Lawyers were working on and getting prepared.

Are we headed towards a world kinda like the psyop world the stasi ran on east Germans during the cold world? Only the American people turn it around and shoot anyone on sight caught blowing public officials for favors?

A world of first principles? How long do you think it would take to exterminate the NPC's?

all that matters now is...

34,000+ views on our way to 35,000 about “just another funny car racer”

but 3 idiots here that can't handle the TRUTH and the FACTS want you to believe that I didn't break the biggest story in all of auto racing here, 31 days ago.
