experimented drivers not caring about new drivers especially the young ones while we will all need them in a near future

Bad marshaling cost me top spot again last night. Marshal wasn't paying attention and picked me up and just held it instead of turning me around. I lost 1st by 2 seconds and was held for probably over 3.

1. Drivers who yell at the corner marshals as the car/truck is still flipping.
2. The same driver who then cusses the corner marshal out for the remainder of the race, distracting all of the other drivers, and making the cm feel like crap.
3. Tracks that post class rules, but don't enforce them. ie, stock trucks racing mod motors...
4. Bias race directors
5. Guys who only hang around your pit stall to brag about how bad they are "kicking your a**"
6. Tracks that aren't maintained
7. The 4x4 SC class
8. Corner marshals telling drivers how to drive
9. Drivers who don't understand the concept of braking in or before the corner, and taking out the leaders by going in wide open.

Everyone makes mistakes, that's why marshals are out there. You do what you're suppose to do, and everyone is happy.
If you say "don't crash" or that I should avoid being marshalled, then we shouldn't have marshals at all then! If you crash, you're just out of the race, or you have to go marshal your own car!
People like you shouldn't get ANY marshals... afterall you're perfect, aren't you?

What grinds my gears is racers who blame the marshals for loosing the race for them. Ya, the marshal should do his or her best to get you back onto the track as fast as possible, but still, its not their fault you lost the race. Its yours for hitting the damn pipe! Ya, I crash, but its because I made a mistake. No need to blame someone else.

Drivers yelling or complaining on the drivers stand.
Finding a pit guy for nitro.
Nitro guys hating on electric guys and vice versa.
