Here is my take..

Did Force break any rules...no

Does NHRA allow multiple car teams to compete in the same eliminator?? yes

Did Pedregon know all this.....yes


Force did what i would do if say i had made the bracket finals team and my kid needed another round win to make it in, i would let him win also if we had to race each other, i wouldnt go out of my way to pull up next to my kid and give him one, but if the chips fell that way, darn right i would help him...know why..cause i legally could


Force didnt set the pairings, they were decided on time runs.


As far as i am concerned, Pedregon is a poor sport for whining about it after the fact.


He should learn something from me..if you dont like how something is ran, complain about it before the fact, not after you have decided to play and know the rules, and cant do anything about them
If you decide to play, shut up and play



Best case scenario is to not allow teams/cars to share info, and have it be all single teams, but no way things are going to go backwards and have that ever happen...too much big money involved.
