I think you do know... ultimately all of this stuff does matter. Ethical and trustworthy behavior make a huge difference in the quality of life in a society and in preserving the integrity of the sport.
If this is true, as a professional racer, they are full of SH!T that they thought it was being scrapped...Anyone with a TENTH of a brain in this sport knows that that body wasn't being scrapped...If it was, all of the mounts, burst panels, windows, spill plates and such would have been removed...
They got caught and now they have to pay....good for Jerry....They should be fined by the NHRA too...Oh, wait...the NHRA isn't smart enough to do that....
Umm, I think if I had a bag with $60,000 sitting in the pits (since JT thinks that pile of crap is worth that much) I would have someone sit with it. Especially if "the guys simply went to rent a truck and take a shower."
If anyone should be having their pay docked, the guys that were responsible for transporting the body to Roush would be at the top of my short list. If it was mine, a note would not even be good enough, that thing would have it's own personal body guard, pardon the pun.
I have no sympathy for someone that does not look after their own possessions. At the very LEAST, that body should have been moved out of ANYONE's way, and definitely not left in someone's path. Grab a brain. It's really too bad because I know JT's team is scraping along, but that was a very costly mistake by a team that can't afford it.
