“…For five and a half years, Don treated me good, and I have nothing bad to say about him. I’ve never worked for a better guy as far as letting you go and do what you need to do, but Don plays hard ball. I thoroughly understand the pressure and expectation in the world of drag racing today. The sponsors pay the money, they’re sold a program that they\u2019re going to win the championship, and anything short of that, it’s, ‘What’s going on?’ The expectations are high. Back when I started, money was never the motivating issue; we did it because we loved it. Now it’s all about money, whether it\u2019s the owner or the driver. Now, the vast majority of drivers have to bring money to get the ride. It’s just a direction that I don’t agree with. I understand it, but don\u2019t like it…”<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n
