Agreed!!

Totally sucks! $$$$$ wins again

I don't know about that one, but I think John Hale is committed to IHRA to run NF/C (he's got a new carbon fiber 69 Camaro body for his car).

 

[Horsepower & Heels]

Wonder if its outcome comes from making room for free-agents from the Al-Anabi deal? I suspect there will be quite a bit of shuffling happening as a result.

 

[none]

Sure will miss Jeff if he's unable to find a ride.

He will run select events that do not conflict. He is the new driver for Jim Dunn Racing. It's official.

Just seen it on the NHRA web site, it's true!

too bad for Jeff. Money talks

Jeff is one of the good guys. Will be here cheering for him and supporting his sponsors whenever he comes back.

BTW, while you are compiling a One of the Good Guys list, John Hale should also be high on that list - right alongside Jeff Arend.

If you have ever been around him for any length of time, what Darr says is a fact.

X2 ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

At least Jim Dunn's car won't be parked this year, so don't go bashing on John Hale. He is high on the list of good guys like Jeff Arend.

I suspected something was up when I saw that Jeff was going to be part of Hawley's school this year, on LinkedIn I believe.

 

[Rajunz]

Here's a really good interview with Arend that spells it all out. I sure hope to see him back in a fuel car again soon.

Pretty sure Jeff has worked for Hawley for a while.

EDIT: Just read the CompPlus interview, and he has worked for Hawley since March.

 

[Nunz]

You're right, I read that as well.

 

[StockersRock]

If AJR still fields two cars, and Khalid is out, I'd LOVE to see Jeff in there!!

 

[Project Paladin]

Arend is a class act for sure, best of luck to him.

Jeff has worked for Hawley in the past. He was working on the alcohol car in the late nineties when we went through the school.
