funny that you blame a stool for falling instead of looking where your walking !LOL do you blame your hands for all the food going into your mouth to get to 310lbs or is that someone else's fault too ? LOL!!(just saying ) lol!!

I counted half a dozen buggies and truggies hopping pipes! What a crappy race.

Should have red flagged that start.

Up here in the Twin Cities (MN) we don't have any indoor dirt right now, but the local on-road track does have some indoor carpet jump racing to help passify people till spring.

Friend took this video of the the Slash main they had awile back, check out the vid at the 7:08 mark or so, and watch dude jump the tube

I see no advantage there. He cut out a jump by jumping two pipes

He didn't just move it, sounds like he trashed it. That 12 year old was really impressed.

first off there was not just one but 2...

and yes i like to stand in the same spot every run, makes for consistency for me.... the dude that used it was at least as tall as me and was standing on it to see... i have no problem seeing at delta.. and i stand at the very end of the drivers stand right by the stairs....

That tool box was up their all day taking up at least 2 spots where people could stand.. if you dont want it kicked off the stand remove it yourself...

i am not going to move because someone left there "toolbox stepstool" witch was taller then an icechest...

so i removed the problem.. then problem solved...

Whats it matter to you Doogie your the new bench racer... all you do is talk shit and complain and dont race.

i May be a young "kid" to you that needs a nap... but your an old fart that needs a retirement home to me...

Have good day... And remember the buckle bunnies Love you.

i wish i knew what kind of tool box it was i would link to show a pic...

it was taller then an ice chest just as wide as one, so yes it took up alot of space on a 4' wide drivers stand that is only 3.5' off the ground.
