To say they didn't approve the request is a bit misleading, because they also didn't DISAPPROVE the request. What they did was ignore the request. From what's been presented above, Jason did what the governing body asks its drivers to do before racing outside the series. The governing body, however, didn't do what IT was supposed to do. After Jason contacted WoO, it would seem that the onus would be on them to say yea or nea, not bury their head in the sand and then come to him later with this fine.
