I can't say I took Hammers post in any way as being heartless.
BDR probably can't afford to lose $80k, either, and its reasonable to assume that if they want to get paid they may have to get in quick before things get any worse for Jeremy hmmm


Right on Sue.

I don't blame BDR for going after this money. If they think that JM is a drug addict, then that money is going fast anyway.

Speaking of law suits, couldn't his sponsors sue him for fraud because of his drug use being in violation of their contract?


Come on Hammer, I know you have a heart. I'm not saying I have sympathy for what JM may have done, but he is still a person who needs to find a way to continue with his life.

As for the sponsors, likely it is stipulated in their contracts with all their spokespersons as something like "behavior unbecoming a spokesperson is unacceptable."

I doubt though that they will pursue him in court.


I don't feel sorry for drug addicts. I feel sorry for the people who lent them money that will never see it again.


I understand your position Hammer. Many feel that way. smile

U.S. District Court Judge Graham Mullen has added Mayfield's preliminary injunction request to his calendar. If the ruling goes in his favor, Mayfield could possibly compete that weekend at Daytona International Speedway.Hearing is to be held July 1st.

To say the least...the expert admitted his credentials were made up, but Diehl doesn't have to file a response to that motion until July 6. So, does the judge allow the supporting affidavit in, or stay the hearing until after Diehl responds?

If the judge is a thinking man, there is no way he grants a preliminary injunction.

Likely he has read about the "MacExpert" issue, and even with Diehl's response, the judge will be no closer to assessing whether Jeremy is fit to drive a race car.

LOL at "MacExpert". smile

I'm surprised it hasn't been postponed, pending the response. The judge can't make an educated decision right now.

Let me rephrase that - the judge, in good conscience, can't grant the injunction right now, not with all the questions swirling about the supporting affidavit.

I agree that under normal circumstances it may have been postponed pending the answer from the defense. But when you have MacExpert blurting out in the free press that he has been misquoted, what could Diehl possibly say that would make the judge feel even marginally comfortable with granting the injunction?

This looks like a slam dunk, "no way."

If the judge ruled in Jeremy's favor, could he even get a team and stuff together to race?? And if he did, how fast could they get test results to see if he was clean?
