Isn't the whole topic a political rant. Just for the record, I was only commenting that lots of people get off easy. Just not many who are poor.

TIME WILL BE THE JUDGE.....................................

I will make my final judgement when years have past. When this young man leaves this world his legacy will be what took place from this point on. Will he be remebered as a spoiled brat or a man that left behind some life lessons and was a contributor to society? Is he full of shet and just getting over, or is he really a man of his word? Not a one of you experts have a clue, but, time will tell.

BUT, I do have something else for you to chew on.

IS A MAN GUILTY BY ASSOCIATION? If you hang out with drug users, give them racecars to drive, are you contributing to the problem, are you a part of the problem?

When it involves a press release, you can bet your rear end, that the real purpose is only to save their own. For every Aaron Fike, there are ten drivers like Dave Darland, Josh Spencer, Brady Bacon, Bryan Clauson, Ricky Stenhouse, etc. around any track to serve as an example to youngsters of how real winners conduct themselves. I wish Aaron the best of luck in his recovery. But, IMO, the only thing he can offer racing is to concentrate on that and show up at the track, someday, as a driver that has REALLY turned his life around. Jerry

Well said..
