Drug oops Drag Racing..

As if the noise around Mr Stevens' brush with the authorities wasnt enough, in today's Daily Telegraph Here shows off 8 drag racing pilots failing mandatory testing

What is going on with this sport???

I've always said there needs to be two levels of drug testing.

The full blown Olympic & pro sports one we have now and one designed for recreational sports like club level motorsport.

Technically speaking taking flu pills are against the WADA code which for non elite sport is plain silly.

Mind you use of Illegal (you should never call them recreational) should not be condoned either.

It's getting like other sports I guess.

They call it dope don't they.

You would think the costs of running Top fuel etc would take all their $$$... some of these Dopes/Icons/Heros feel the nations laws don't apply to them, this behavior is their ultimate in self indulgence.

An OSH Hazard and a nightmare for ANDRAs Tony T,and a pain for all the legit racers.Aussie has some cool heads in their drag racing fraternity,wait and see.

What ever happened to the Adrenalin Rush?
0 to 330+mph in the low Fours or 0 to 110 in the 13s
It still works for the real racers, as usual, "the silent majority"...

AND... What has happened to Mr Stevens, apart from reading a statement he made while ago, of being a victim of maliscous lies and inuendoe, its been quiet.
Those pill making machines that were found would generate big $$$.
NOT really sportsmen at all are they?
The Association WILL sort it, their membership will see to that!

If you look on the dragster web site there is already an article there about it.

Don't know who the 'headline' is, but one fueler pilot had to pull out of the Nationals at the last minute due to illness.
