Like it or not drag racing is a sport, and as such has rules of engagement, and this year the rules are different. We all know where things would be if we followed historical rules and Ron Capps, probably better than anyone, knows where he would be sitting today entering the final race of the season.
I wager he will express himself at a time he feels appropriate when all is said and done. That said, he has shouwn significant maturity, class, and dignity in the manner in which he has handled the situation thusfar. I have no reason to believe going forward that he will not continue to exhibit the same sportsmanship.
However this "Countdown" has shown everyone the reality of what happens during a season when a solid and fair format is reorganized and all I can hope for is that NHRA makes the proper adjustments to their system restore the credibility and integrity of of sport after this season is finalized and they have had an opportunity to professionally and fairly evalulate the performance of the changes they made to the professional series.
