Their are reasons to be skeptical. For example, the <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.donahoeracing.com\/bio.php?bioID=6\" target=\"_blank\" title=\"Kreg Donahoe\">Donahoe Racing Website<\/a> spells the president&#8217;s name as &#8220;Kreg Donahoe&#8221;, but the court record indicates &#8220;William Kreag Donahoe&#8221;. Different spellings plus his first name is William. But, we also know that Kreg&#8217;s dad was known as &#8220;Wild Bill&#8221; so it&#8217;s not a stretch to think he&#8217;s named after his dad.<\/p>\n<p>I will keep an eye on this story and report it based on the information I have. Please don&#8217;t make any conclusions about Donahoe Racing&#8217;s products or the company until more facts are revealed.<\/p>\n<p>If there are other Donahoe employees or people who know, with verifiable facts, please post them as comments.<\/p>\n<hr size=\"2\" width=\"100%\" \/> The forum <a rel=\"nofollow\" href=\"http:\/\/www.pirate4x4.com\/\" title=\"Pirate 4x4 homepage\" target=\"_blank\">Pirate 4&#215;4<\/a> has some more information about this story.
