^ That's a sweet helmet idea...I still want to paint a particular Rebel pilot helmet design on an open face helmet. Maybe that's something I can do in my free time in the future.

The Feds are really after Scott Tucker now. Tax Evasion through PayDay Loan Companies that charge beyond the Legal Limit on Interest. He did it by "Rent a Tribe", paying Indian Tribes to be the "Front" of the Company. He basically used the same formula in Racing (Level 5 Racing) as Jon Field but upped the Ante by hiring the Top Drivers to race with him (Franchitti, Briscoe, Brabham, Hunter-Reay, etc)
Yeah, I knew Tucker had already been a convicted felon from before, and I wondered if something was going down again when he abruptly left the series and sold the cars right after winning Daytona.

Granted, tax evasion is a crime only because you're ripping off the govt...which I think the govt gets enough money as is, but that's a different argument. Tucker and Field, while they got caught, I don't think they're NEARLY the criminals that Greg Loles proved to be!
