Ok here is the deal!! Jim has won Drag week !!
The blue wagon that has been in the nines all week, was caught cheating by are very own 1320 video .com. Jim was approached buy another racer, in the big block class. They said that they had seen that wagon being brought off a trailer earlier in the week. So just to make sure that they were not going to get beat by a bunch of cheaters. 1320 video followed them. After being caught following them once. They backed off and resumed the chase later. So it turns out that the little nova wagon was indeed being trailerd between tracks. 1320 with much stelth hiding behind bushes caught them loading it on the trailer.
Hotrod announced at the beginning of the week how the protests must be approached it included a giving a 100 dollars to the staff. If your protest was found legit you get your money back. If it was found false the money went to the other racer. However the video sealed the deal!
But the story gets a little bigger the people who were cheating were planed to be on the cover of Hot Rod. Not only that but John Meaney was one of the guys involved. He created the modern EFI Bigstuff3, The car was loaded on the trailer at John lingefelters daughters house, And the crew trailering the car was with Air Ride suspensions. One of the sponsers of drag week !
There is a lot more to the story but to sum it up JIM won drag week and is looking at the cover of HOT ROD.
I will let them fill in the fine details
