Dan Olson Appointment

[farmje]

Did anyone else find it interesting what Lee Beard said in what he thought about Dan Olson's appointment?

..."It’s hard to clean up somebody else’s mess but that’s what he has to do."

And then Rahn Tobler? ..."I’ll form an opinion when I see what he does and doesn’t do.”

Are these typical responses when a new technical director for FC and TF come in? Or has something happened or been said that I missed?

Link for the article is on CompPlus and can be found HERE

Thanks for any insight anyone can give.

Sounds to me that none were happy with the previous "appointment", everyone is looking forward to Dan coming in and making things right............but then again, what do I know?

I agree Lance, let's just hope the NHRA gives Dan the power to make his own decisions and not put a bunch of restrictions for him to work with.

Will the chief starter have to answer to Dan?

Only if Dan can become the next Buster and take charge!
