The final appeal will be heard by an NHRA appointed three-member appellate panel comprised of the following: one member of NHRA's management staff, and two members of the racing community who are not current NHRA employees. Using the NHRA rulebook as a source, the two members of the racing community must adhere to the following requirements: (a) they shall not have been involved as a competitor of the participant in NHRA events in the given calendar year; (b) they shall not have a personal financial interest in the outcome of the Final Appeal; and (c) they shall not have an actual conflict of interest with the appealing participant.
Schumacher has declined to speak to CompetitionPlus.com on the appeal process and what may transpire afterwards.
