Bummer, that's not the first time this has happened to Kurt.
But anyways, Kurt's 2nd rd. victory was quite satisfying.

Re: Pro Stock Final

Sure would like to peak at the engine leasing contract that Justin signed. Regardless, a good win. Question, would Justin have won this race had he raced the Stratus?

Re: Pro Stock Final

You know, anyway you serve it up, it seems as if someone is going to cry foul?? Of course, there has to be a dive, right?

I'd have never believed in my wildest dreams after that final and the outcome that anyone-anywhere would have ever brought this crap up but since you did and it's on the table, I'll say this. With the exception of a age assisted late light by Warren, his stuff beat everyone else's stuff all weekend long. Justin is the smartest man on the planet finding a way to get WJ/KJ power under his hood and he proved it today! The only problem is we now have Oliver Stone and the guys on the grassy knoll reviewing the lease agreements and clutch servicing procedures in an effort to justify results. Justin drove WJ/KJ's powered car and won the event. It's that simple and if there's conspiracy in KJ letting his points lead go soft by sabotaging his own starter, check your reputation and credibility at the door as it will come under much greater scrutiny.

Re: Pro Stock Final

I think that the poster of this thread may be referring to what Justin's car did at the drop of the clutch.

Man was I bummed to see KJ's car not start. Then when they said they had to push start it I knew the race was over for him due to the self start rule.

Huh???????????????????............wow............. ............

Was Greg Anderson diving at Pomona for the finals when he lost to Justin in the first round while leading the points by a very slim margin over Jeg?? I'd say no, based on the fact that he has a gigantic #2 on the side of his GXP. Can't we just give Pro Stock's first first time winner in 4 years his due?

This thread is just another reason why racers have left the building with regard to the "Nitromater."

Jerry-
I do not think that Kurt threw this race, as far as wether or not Hump was contracted to do so, I can't say either way on that one.

However,
When I read your post, the image of KJ riding down the return road after a loss to Warren back in the 90s with a big sign stating "At least I still have my job" popped into my head, and would appear to cast some doubt on your above statement.

Don't get me wrong, I love the Johnsons, they are my favorite P/S team, and they are great for the sport - but I wouldn't say he would NEVER throw a race.
