FEEDBACK ARTICLE - JERRY ECKMAN IS READY TO TALK

I'm glad that Jerry finally came forward with the facts of this incident, and it's typical how NHRA screwed him over, while ignoring the obvious. Every racer (and most fans) knew that the Dodge boys were "squeezing" but nothing was done, and when they got backed into a corner... well, we know what happened next. Also, their star driver gets busted on serious drug charges, and yet gets to come back after some tearful apologies.  What a bunch of B.S.

I don't know if I should admire Jerry for protecting his friend all these years and not coming out with this right at the beginning, or just call him dumb, but I truly believe he's a victim here.. 

I'm to the point where I trust NHRA as much as I trust the majority of politicians.  The mass cover-ups of anything negative and turning a blind eye to the obvious, all the while pillaging our pocketbooks to pay themselves ridiculous salaries, makes me ill. What did they do with the money they collected in fines??   Just when do these people have to be held accountable for "their actions?"

I certainly hope Jerry gets another chance to drive with a quality car. If he fails, then that's not due to lack of heart. Good luck Jerry. - Dale Posnick, Maple Ridge B.C.
