To be very honest, in the midst of the economic downturn that has not only hit this country but the whole global cummunity, we should all be very thankful that we can enjoy this hobby. We should be tickled pink to even get to the race track. Some folks are really having it hard and it's not by choice. When you're on top theres only one way to go.

I've been guilty of doing the same but is it really worth it? Trying to convince others that our way of doing things is the only way of doing things is totally absurd.

I know alot of people that would love to simply have the money in a years time that most of us spend in a month, and this is just a hobby. There is nothing wrong with taking it serious. I take it serious and want to do the best I can when I am racing, but at the end of the day, it needs to be about having fun, enjoying time with friend and/or family and helping others.

Each and everyone of us here on RCTech have a certain amount of responsibility to those who are trying to get involved in racing and nothing more than a positive attitude helps everyone involved.

Peace out brothers.
Greg, the way you stated that was simply sublime my friend. Words of a prophet I tell you! I'm new to this forum, and already I can relate in many ways to what you're saying. I see the senseless arguments and other quite frankly, ignorant comments about things when all someone is trying to do is get an answer to a question or a solution to a problem..

I'm here to share what I know, and to learn from anyone else willing to share what they know. And of course let's not forget folks, this is a hobby. Of course for some it is a profession, however the hobbyists who take things so seriously that they blow their tops when someone bumps them on the track or simply objects to the tin can they've got wired up powering their kit, are where the sad stock of the R/C community can be seen. Let's stick with constructive arguments and not get nasty people, shall we?
