"Bottom line...the only people who would have an objection with Larry competing in Comp would be guilty of a HUGE double-standard."

John, why must anyone be guilty of anything? Can't people share their thoughts and opinions, without being the outcast? I've stated ANY Pro, I see no double standard in my posts. . So I guess I'll just sneak away in shame.......

Jean, don't feel like you need to put in the gloves...nobody is trying to beat you up.You were in comp for many years,you obviously know the "game",but Larry Morgan isn't the only "pro" racer to have done this. Rodger Brogdon is racing comp again,Patterson and Rampy have had their stints in pro stock,Dave Connolly has run S/C this year and Gene Snow has been in T/AD for years.I really think it's not the matter of the money,dynos or anything of that sort,there could be a side of this we don't know about...maybe Mopar wants to get into the upper part of the sportsman ranks...or maybe Larry wants to establish a engine program for sportsman..could be many other reasons besides getting his son in the ranks.

My thoughts exactly, Dave. I couldn't imagine him doing that either.

The dividing line between 'Pro' and 'Sportsman' becomes ever so blurred when you talk about Comp. Is Rampy a true 'Sportsman', or a touring 'Pro' in a Sportsman class? Many come to mind when you talk about this kind of deal. The list gets pretty long when you look at the touring sports racers. The Richardsons, Fletcher and a bunch of others. I wish Comp was affordable also but that horse left the barn years ago! Oh and the B/A index was never under pressure from Morgan. He's far to much a gentleman AND a great Comp racer to have done that.

You've got to give the guy who came up with "You can't fix stupid" T-shirts credit for not doing anything stupid. He got the car dialed in and left without doing any damage.
