On Friday August 28, Spencer Massey was released from Don Schumacher Racing as driver of the Red Fuel Powered by Schumacher/Sandvik Coromant Top Fuel dragster in the NHRA Mello Yello Drag Racing Series.

"Spencer is no longer with DSR," team owner Don Schumacher said Friday evening.

"He violated a DSR policy and would not correct the violation. I feel badly for members of the team because they will not be able to compete for a world championship or next weekend's Traxxas Shootout title."

There will be no further comment from DSR regarding this decision or the future of the team.
