What about peter cozzolino? My question is who and how much do you pay to sway a few calls your way?

Ask Danny Drinan about judgement calls.As for USAC and judgement calls, ask Ignite about USAC's judgement in spending the $350K USAC got from them. I'm sure Ignite really respects their judgement at the present time.

Racing accidents do happen and since I wasn't there I won't even begin to speculate whether this was one intentional or not. We all know that Robert has earned himself a reputation in the past of driving like a "madman", and his off/on tracks antics have probably cost him alot of respect of drivers and fans alike.

Having said that, it seems that he has calmed down alot in the past couple of seasons, gotten married, and is working hard on and off the track to make ends meet. Robert is a joy to watch race on the 1/2 miles. Hopefully this blows over.

I remember Shuman wadded up the Hoffman car while attemping a banzai move at Bloomington. He may or may not have gotten a talkin to. Don't know, wasn't there either...

They did it to Kevin Thomas and cost him a championship to Tony Elliott.

I would say that is more than any other series would bring. I was at Osky a couple of years ago and the all stars only brought 2 cars out of their top 20. MSCS had less than that at Terre Haute and only had 21 at their home track at Haubstadt. I wish some of these people would go to a couple of races instead of sitting on the computer looking for things to complain about.

I consider myself friends with both of those guys. I do not consider this a real good comparison.
