Jim Dunn has more than 50 years of active drag racing experience, so when he talks, we listen. Dunn believes the changes about to be mandated by NHRA regarding Funny Car roll cages and the like are nothing more than a “band aid. I think they’re over reacting to an admittedly tragic situation, but there needs to be more thought given to some of the things they’re talking about before they force us to make changes.”

Dunn is rumored to have had serious words with new fuel racing honcho Dan Olson over the issue.
