Default 2 cents

When I was there Sunday it was a hack fest on all counts, especially the start. Some groups were better than others, but still hack and bash the first few laps. The yelling at corner marshalls needs to stop as well. I mean how childish. It was embarressing. If you don't like the time it takes to put your car back on the track, drive better. Simple as that. It was a trailer trash type atmosphere, worst I have seen in awhile. I am saying this as a group on the whole, not anyone person. I know we don't like pointing fingers.

I think some people just need to realize that we are rc car drivers, not saints. Get over it. Get some thicker skin. Stop worrying about everyone else and focus on yourself. I guess some people can't be happy unless they have something to complain about.

haack fest? speak for yourself dude. most people can barley keep their car on the line, add a 8 car main event, nothing you can do about it!

more lame excuses for bashing TRCR if you ask me. and i agree, yelling at corner marshals IS LAME. but this doesn't ONLY HAPPEN AT TRCR GUYS. when i get really heated and the few times i said something i end up feeling really bad about it. EVERYONE has been frustrated at themselves for crashing. it happens and emotions are running high.

now, i can say my brother and I have been yelled at many times, even when luke was little, but he always knew that the person yelling was in the wrong. "that guy should have let off the gas" or you know something else.

so with my point, bashing TRCR for that reason is lame. just race and worry about your own race program. the race director will yell at the people causing the issues.

To bad those rules don't apply to your posts.

Live and let live, check the mirror.

Trolls are people too. Nod your head when they are talking and then, Maybe they'll stop soon so you can have your own thoughts in your head.

I nominate GeO for Lead Mind Bender Award.

I think, he was trained by Extremists.

PS what is courteously, is that when you pull up your dress, Geroge?

Spoprtsmanship should also include moving out of the way when the leaders are on yor 6, regardless of who they are, what table they sit at and how your run is going. It also should include some sort of attention when cornering and not recapping your previous run.

That should be everything.
Now let's get back to racing!

Maybe you could apply some of that learning to the actual meaning of "sportsmanship".

Then, perhaps could reflect on YOUR POSTS. You may then notice you and sportsmanship live on different streets.

I was saying as a whole and to not single groups or individuals out. No need to take offense. And making an observation and stating fact is not dissing. That is what happened Sunday, plain fact. Lets deal with it and not make excuses. Why would I diss when I will be there again tonight?

One race in particular had a ten vehicle main. 6 of the ten cars piled it up on the crossover on the first lap and continued to pile it up until the first four were almost lapping them. That doesnt just happen. Thats stupid aggressive driving. Go watch an on-road race sometime. 99% of the time you will see a line of cars in a nice formation all the way around the track before they start switching sides. Thats bumper to bumber with speeds twice as fast as any off-road car. When they go to pass and cause the other to lose control, they stop let them get back in front and resume until a nice pass can be achieved. Very gentlemenly and polite. Just an observation and not calling anyone out. Lets race clean and have fun.

Again, I'm not saying anything bad about guys who run stock, but the guys in mod usually are a shade more skillful (not all of them), and have the ability to race closer to each other without hitting. Again, I'm not hating on anybody, just pointing out how ludicrous this statement is.

All you had to do was just read the words, not read into them, just read them, its not that hard, let me repeat, and then explain what I said so there no more confusion.

Whats Ludicrous is passing judgement on MY experience, My post is a true and accurate statement of MY experience running MOD and STOCK at TRCR. HOW YOUR able to base YOUR opinion on MY experience without being there is beyond me.

let me repeat it again for those that have a hard time READING the words.

MOST of the time, FOR ME, mod is a hack fest, I HAVE cleaner runs in STOCK. pretty darn simple statement, should be pretty darn easy to understand

I believe it was Dalton who was RD when I asked to be changed back to stock that night. ASK HIM, he might remember.

NO spin, just the truth. deal with it.

Don't use that as an excuse to not run mod buggy.. I would LOVE to see you come woop the pants off Geo As a matter of fact, watching you guys battle it out on the dirt would be FAR more enjoyable than watching you battle it out in the forums.

Us stock guys tangle cars FAR FAR FAR more often, even if unintentional.


Now you're talkin, Kyle... I want in!
hey, look at there, someone who knows how to read.

thanks for reading unstanding what I wrote.
