Marcos, I'll assume that's directed at Paul. I've been on these forums for over nine years with the same account, and it's my real name.

This is beyond "low" for someone who is now a competitor, to talk trash about another company's products. Under anonymous user names no less. It's completely pathetic that he's trying to play all of us as a random user, and he's talking trash about a competitor.

Jeff can certainly be accused of being an overly enthusiastic supporter of the class and the products he represents, but if that makes him a bad person, this forum is full of a lot of bad people. Perhaps he takes some of the negative comments too personally, but that seems to be a thing of the past. This stuff from Paul is a whole new low, and it's the type of immature infighting that hurts the class.
This is just a shame, I'm very surprised with this. If you have something to say, say it with your real name. Also this takes away from both Maxvelocity and Alpha tires. This is more of a shame than anything else. People not one of us is a Twenty dollar bill so we are liked by everyone. Come on guys this type of thing takes away from our class. If you don't like the person behind any company then just don't buy their products.

Really, the saddest part to all of this is that it was posted on Victor's thread for his upcoming race. Victor has nothing to do with this feud and it is a shame that Victor's thread is being junked up by the negativity coming from Paul. I had the opportunity to meet Paul in Homestead and Joliet and thought he was a good guy. Well, I guess he fooled a lot of us. Paul can not like Jeff all he wants but to detract from Victor's race is inexcusable.

Default Go Team USA!

I just wanted to wish all the the USA drivers luck at the event this week! Wish I could be there to help hold up the Team USA flag. Unfortunately, I had a conflict and couldn't make it. But, I will definitely be ready in 2012 to challenge this year's winner with my Novarossi powered Serpent GT!

The track and facility looks incredible! Victor and the crew have really outdone themselves! Good luck again to all drivers!

There should be some good rubber laid down today with the qualifying starting tomorrow. More racers should be coming in and getting their race groove on.

Mr. Lyday: Good luck to you!!! We here in the states know you can bring it!! We will be cheering for you.
