The unexpected conditions that night were impossible without radar or GPS. Speed had nothing to do with it.

BB,

With all do respect, your second comment, is way off base. Yes it may have taken 2.5 years for this to happen, but to believe that the Diamond Island accident had no influence here, is not easy to just right off. If there was a contract in place, it needed to expire. If Formula had pulled from LakePort to early, and the case had worked out differently for the Blizzards they would have been open to a lawsuit.

How much or how little the Diamond Island Accident had to do with this, is purely speculation. However to say that it had nothing to do with it is a stretch.
