Fast guys are going to talk about things relevant to their ability. While they don't mind giving the basics to a newbie it's not what they want to talk about the entire day. So they tend to "chat" with those who are the same level. If guys want to hang and listen to gain knowledge nobody cares. It really is a racing thing not an R/C thing..IMO

Where do the glue sniffing & paint chip eating guys race at? That'd be some good racing.

Here is how i see it, im 17 years old and have been in the sport for 5 years. Im not trying to brag but yes... I do have quite a few good finishes and i have raced against Lutz and Drake. BUT i could not have done that without help from more experienced people. You can have all the talent in the world and if your equipment isnt up to par it really doesnt matter. Being 17 alot of people have told me i didnt know what i was talking about and ill be honest myself and nobody else in this sport is done learning i dont care what you last name is. Technology gets better, cars change, parts become stronger etc. I dont care if im working on my stuff at the track getting ready for a race and a newbe comes up to me asking for help...I will go out of my way to help them. To me just because your new doesnt mean anything, we all were at one time and for the sport to grow and get bigger we need to all get along and learn together. This is just my opinion.

Well said Matt, I love my local tracks..... Everyone there is very friendly and always willing to help everyone out..... Of course every track is going to have those that think they know it all, I say let them think that and don't even bother trying to argue with them..... This hobby is supposed to be fun and I always try to help others, even with my limited knowledge, and I expect the same in return..... If you don't want to help me thats fine, I'll find someone who will.......... In the end its all about having fun, racing your rc's and meeting alot of great people......
