As regards your comment, "i insult and make fun of people who deserve it."
why do i deserve to be insulted and laughed at? For suggesting ways to make drag racing more fair for everybody? They say, "no good deed goes unpunished." is this your effort to make that saying come true?
Your comment, "you're a lonely old guy with nothing else to do but instigate a topic that will not affect you one bit."
i don't know how much you know about my social life, but "lonely," i am not. As far as, " nothing else to do but instigate a topic that will not affect you one bit," i have told you repeatedly that the rules for bracket racing as regards the starting line, are exactly the same as class racing rules, so, when i race (and, i do) it will affect me. If it didn't, i wouldn't be here. I have told you that, repeatedly too... Don't you listen?
You commented, "you're what's known in the present world as an "advocate."
i think that's an apt description. The online business dictionary says, "advocate... A person who supports a cause and exercises his right to be heard..."
that's me, all right!
Re: Your comment, " if you were a current of future s/ss racer i would have engaged in a civil discussion.but you're a nosey old busy body,nothing more nothing less."
no, i am a person who suffers under the same, universal, unfair set of rules that entail having an undue share of red light jeopardy foisted upon me, just like almost everybody else (cars that are never first-to-leave, excepted.) you, are a masochistic, "stomp me again; i like it" racer who has no concept of fairness or parity. Just because you have no objection to getting kicked in the face over and over again, doesn't mean that everybody enjoys that kind of abuse. Think of somebody besides yourself for a change...
There's no excuse for name-calling and abusive behavior on this bb. People who stoop to that, just admit intellectual bankrupty... Check out the "subject" line, up top...
