Satire is primarily a literary genre or form, although in practice it can also be found in the graphic and performing arts. In satire, vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings are held up to ridicule, ideally with the intent of shaming individuals, and society itself, into improvement.[1] Although satire is usually meant to be funny, its greater purpose is often constructive social criticism, using wit as a weapon.

Now that you've slung a bunch of mud and accused someone of cheating, would you describe the cheating, and how you determined that it was such? It's not fair to call someone a cheater without details.

Jim the cheating has been described over , and over, and over again. Von C went to Homestead this past weekend and raced NASA in part to see for himself. It appears and I am waiting for conformation that JR was teched this past weekend and was found to be none compliant even after he was called out and his father swore up and down he was legal.

A problem was found with the exhaust manifold in post race tech. Car was DQ'ed. Gotta agree with Charbs...LOTS of apologies are owed.

But here you go some info about the car. Last race at Sebring Jr was complaining the car was down a little on power at the higher rpm but he still won the race. We decided to go over the engine last week with new rings bearings etc. We also ordered a cylinder head from Gilfus Racing which came in Tuesday and put the engine together then on the dyno for 1hr. This was the first run for the car with the new engine to break it in. We did do the sniffer test and was at 9.1 which is low. Saturday I was on the phone with Gilfus Racing trying to find out what the problem was and if it was from the rings not fully seated or him not taking enough off the head. Even down on power he was able to place 6th with no draft partner. His times were about 1.2 seconds off the pace. He did get faster as he put more time on the engine. That was enough to put him just behind the front runners.

Oh if this is about a header that was not ported but missing 2 nubs in the exhaust port and otherwise normal. We changed it for them right away and wanted to that Patrick for pointing out the problem. You want to talk about porting the car next to us at tech had a fully ported header. We grabbed that header from a pile we had and stuck it on the car. Obviously it made no power since it was on for practice only and we changed it for qualifying and went faster. Not as bad as 5 out of the 8 cars racing in grand am not passing tech in practice.

SM is only a stepping stone for Jr. He is already set to race World Challenge and maybe grand Am next year. You know what I love about that is no one can touch the engines so it will be all about the drivers.

Jr is moving up to WC in B-Spec then ST. the team is also thinking about sticking him in a Corvette at the end of Next Year. SM is just a stepping stone for one year and that is it. His sponsor has him doing motivational speeches at a number of schools and appearances in on both TV and radio.

Nothing to respond to from you, since even after asking, you provided no information at all. Thanks go to latapx for at least mentioning the exhaust header, but the only person to provide any amount of real info is the guy accused of cheating.

Ernie Sr, can you post pictures of the header that was DQ'd? Was it indeed illegal in some way, or do you think tech called it wrong?

------

[Edit] Just realized that a wider discussion of this is in the thread called "So...Who won the Charby vs. Prodigy shootout in FLORIDA?".

I still hope for answers to my questions from Ernie Sr.

Jim, the info is on the other thread, provided mostly by Tucker. He types better then Andrew. I believe Tucker was an eye witness the way I read the account???? The car was found non complient, so thats a cheat period. If the logic follows the last thread on the subject of cheating, the B spec car passed tech at Grand AM there for its legal, this car got Dq'd in tech therfore Illegal... cant have it both ways. Andrew has results to back up the claim at this point, and Andrew never called Poppa bear or Baby bear cheaters till it was proven this weekend.
