hard to blame the nhra for this..the bookies priced up the horse way too short and it drifted as the market corrected its price..stipes/vets found nothing wrong or suspicious(which looked the case on tv the horse was just fairly beaten)..cant expect the nhra to launch a full blooded investigation(goose chase) everytime someone rants on a forum about his pa banker going missing...

absolutely...

Here's a good question : Has the NHRA ever investigated an unusual betting pattern before ?

All betting moves are monitored...I know I will be shot down flames for this statement but it is a fact...

Have they ever launched an investigation as a result of an unusual betting pattern ?

I am not sure about that ...but Im sure they would if deemed necessary...otherwise monitoring it in the first place would be a waste of time

Would be interesting to find out. Will try email them.
