Luke, you made the statement that you were wondering why the races were so quick to get pissed off about anything !!
Well maybe with the way way our country has and is being run and we as citizens has no say in it! Where when were at the tracks we do have a voice or the ability to scream ! Right or wrong !
Just a thought !

Ed I agree with you on that. I believe if it was taken care of when it happen it would of never went as far is it has.


Randy is no phony lying, crying, denying democrat.

Just because there was a live feed, he didn't treat it any different than he would no live feed.

Randy is a racer, he's seen it all.

What did you expect, a song and dance?

Randy didn't put on a clown costume for the audience. Respect

Keep talking. Publicity, is publicity.

Actually I do know Randy and he is a nice guy. I do think he made the wrong call on this one.

But with that being said nobody but the people involved knows what went on in the meeting at the trailer that night. We don't know what was told to Randy or what Randy even done. All we do know is a lot people don't think it was handle right because he was still racing. But to be honest even if Randy kicked him out for the weekend I don't know it would still been enough for most people. A lot of people have never dealt with anything like this on track incident and they don't know what the punishment should be.

I think what was dealt out is fair. I'm sure hunter will be racing somewhere next year. Just maybe not anything tied to NHRA. I hope he learns from his mistakes and grows from it. Cause he is one heck of a racer.


Randy was lied to, then the next day the Truth came out. Keep in mind the kid didn't have to come clean, and I'll guarantee he had a few who were advising him not to come clean, but he did anyway. This is his True character. Going postal on the track was due to ill thinking - his pride painted him in a corner.

Randy handled it like any rational man would, you can't kick a guy when he's down once he comes clean, when he doesn't have to.

If I were Hunter I'd do my time, do my anger management therapy, and come back after the NHRA suspension. It would be the honorable thing to do. Kinda like coming clean when you don't have to.

Ed I agree with you on this. There are several good young racers out there. Including your boy. He is one of the best. They are light years a head of where I was at that age. Now that I'm getting older it's hard to beat these young kids. I still can but I have to be on my A game.

Jared,
I don’t disagree with anything you, Luke, or Troy said. I do think that there was a lack of discussion on the antics on the starting line and too much emphasis on the “whomping” after the finish line that potentially created the situation. I agree with Troy that it is or could be disrespectful. What I don’t think you guys spent enough time on in this (and the last episode) on was the games that these guys play on the starting line and how it potentially created the problem.

Turning the wheel to flicker the bulb is not new. It’s been around since at least 2001 (that I have seen with my own eyes), maybe way before.


I listen to that pod cast too. I agree the sportsmanship is getting lost in drag racing. But it seemed like it was being directed toward the younger crowd. I personally don't agree with that part of it. Yes they are the biggest part of that, but not the only ones. You see games played and bad sportsmanship by a lot of people. Not just the younger ones. I've been blessed to be able to attend some big dollar racing. So I have seen it first hand and also watched it on live stream.

I can tell you for a fact that one big name racer gave the guy he lost to the bird when they was pulling off the track. This happen this year. They was pissed because that guy was wearing them out all weekend. So what I'm trying to say is the younger generation learned it from the older generation.

As long as there is big money on the line I think you will always have some bad sportsmanship. People are way more serious about racing now and a lot of people trying to make a living off of it. Is it getting out of hand? Yes. Will it change? Probably not

We used to call the game back in the 70's the
"Twitch" or "Rockin the beams". AND it was a game.
Seen a few get their Azz chewed. AHRA. days. The starters were were fully aware of the BS. And it is BS.. I will never forget during the one of the events in "Run Tuff Eliminator. (RTE). The starter
at US 30 Was screaming at driver when he pulled that stunt and backed him out. "His Tree, His rules".

I’ll have to disagree on this one, instinctual reaction from action is character, premeditating thought to determine action is not….No, I’m not a psychologist, but I have been through several leadership courses and a good bit of occupational experience on human behavior, as I said prior……you have to be in tune with todays social game.

He *****ed up and he will be serving a sentence for that, will he learn and change from that? Im gonna say yes.

People can be reformed and with his evident skill sets, Im guessing he is fully invested in correcting this and moving forward.

(too bad the guy wasn’t just your normal “Joe Bracket racer”, he would have been evicted from the event at that point and this topic would have went dead a week ago)

If you want to beat on someone….its the promoter, they had to “think” about how to act (react) and essentially dropped the ball on that. I do applaud NHRA on their action, wonder if the promoter even received a verbal reprimand? (no answer required, none of my business)

I just listened to the podcast and frankly heard enough and stop listening before the end.

I strongly disagree with some of the comments made by Jed, Luke and Troy. Too much codling of Hunter, defending the lack of action by Randy and basically saying who the hell is the NHRA to get involved and suspend him and in the same breath, almost encouraging him to appeal and race somewhere regardless of the suspension. Lastly, this notion that Trey bought this on himself by whomping after the finish line says all I need to know and supports my decision long ago not to support this race/this promotor and several others.

Bottomline...this not subjective, not debatable, his action is indefensible as is the inaction of the promotor.

Now lets have a real conversation about the drug and alcohol use, cheating and house cars at some of these big $ events hosted by some promotors.

As stated before 99% of you all never had any intent of racing this race. But seem to have so much to say or recommend. .

Luke and Jed were dead on the entire podcast IMO. Furthermore TROY was dead on even more IMO. Hunter was PROVOKED and TREY did NOT rip anyone the rest of weekend for good reasons, the lesson was learned by Trey as when your disrespectful CHIT happens as we all saw for ourselves. IF you disagree its your right. Doesn't make anyone right or wrong. HUNTER was wrong and will pay dearly for it and hopefully will learn from this incedent too. I have heard for years alot of racers say "if they rip me after the finish line I will run em over down there", lots said it, HUNTER did it. He was wrong for it.

So many on this thread seem to know it all and demand all this chit you want done to Hunter, while you were not there AND NEVER intend nor intended to go to this race...pfft STFU already you will never show up or have a part in it the biggest bracket race in the worlds.

As for the FOLKS, good people NOT white trash like duma$$ Sammy says as he CLEARLY speaks without knowing people. They have my support amist all the ridiculous things said about them. Y'all will be watching us race next year too you bunch of slandering retards.

I wont be answering any of DRRs followers pitiful questions either. You know who you are so dont bother asking. Its easy to see who's real and who isn't.

pitiful remarks but sadly his opinion is shared by many and more important many that support these races where the only rule is pay your entry fee at least for those that aren't house cars.

Y'all must have the thinnest skin in drag racing if that gets you so angry that you want to do that stupid stuff. As for me, I know exactly how to keep my car from dying after the finishline now. Whacka whacka, see ya at the fling events.

Would the real sammy who said Folk was a good racer but looked like white trash, please stand up?

Nope wasn't you.

Folk actually looks like a dude who could snag a hot chic or two!

I'd love to see what this sammy guy looks like, just for chits and giggles Big Grin

People rip the throttle on you successfully before the stripe, because they can. It's every bit as disrespectful as after.

Before or after doesn't matter. You have no one to blame but yourself, either way.
