from what I have heard so far, the powers that be are very dis-pleased with the recent turn of events and are going above and beyond to rectify the situation, including the unthinkable...it looks like the Joliet race could possibly be protested now...if that happens, it would be Un-presidented in the world of drag racing
I don't see how they can possibly protest an actual Car from Joliet, seeing as how it's been WEEKS since the event. They can take the racers points away, but only based on the current race's discrepancy.
For instance... Halfacre will lose his points for Joliet and the prior race, therefore everyone else would move up a position in the points. Jarrett would fall down to 1200 or so points, if memory serves that would be like 8th place from 1st, moving Urist up to the #1 spot, AJ up to #2, etc.
Now if Urist is deemed illegal, which I do not see happening at ALL (I have faith in ya, John), that would move AJ up to the #1 spot, and so on.
But a protest on the actual Joliet race??? Nah.... but that's my 2 cents
