At some point Donna made a comment about Ron getting disqualified for taking off some of his saftey equipment before the boat was on the trailer. And it just so happend to be the heat Ron took second over Jim.

We'll be back.

Actually Donna overheard an official saying it.... and could care less if the Helmets were took off, because Jim did the same thing  After seeing Terry looking in the rule book, she kept telling him that if they called them on the Helmet deal that it would be BS, etc etc.... But I do like the way things get twisted 

I'll just consider the source of the petty insults, and hope that someday you too, can actually have a life.

I was on the ramp when Donna tried to tell the drivers to put the helmets and jackets back on.(Jim included)..The officals from the tower side were talking to the ramp crew asking for boat numbers of the offenders. APBA rules clearly state that helmets and jackets MUST be worn until the boat is trailered. (UNLESS UNDER TOW BACK TO THE RAMP AFTER THE HEAT IS OVER) Because of the way the ramp was being handled there were always boats waiting for their trailers, some times for 5 plus minutes, maybe 10 at times because of the gridlock on the pit road. The ramp crew wasn't enforcing the helmet/jacket rule, kinda looking the other way as a lot of the drivers were removing safety gear while waiting. Rules are rules and could have been enforced. (There were races being run during the waiting time) To hammer Donna for trying to prevent any penalties is just wrong, real wrong. If she were doing so to gain an advantage she certainly wouldn't have warned the competition.......To add insults toward her could have some dire consequences and I feel an apology is warranted. I know none of the CJ racers are responsible for the asswipe insults. As for the internet bad asses, do all the CJ racers a favor and crawl back under your rock. To the CJ racers, read the rule book. Try that stunt at Parker next month and see how fast Ross DISQUALIFYS YOUR BOAT......Ray

from what lance posted - there was no rule broken from what i understand - i wasnt there, but from whats been described, no rule was broken.
