Boys, Boys, Boys.. can't we all just get along??.. in my opinion, the .90 section has slowed down because it has been "Off Season" and most of us are trying to figure out how we are going to afford to race this season.. speaking for myself, I have always found this site to be a freat place to communicate and gather information.. recently though, I have mostly reading posts and if I didn't have something constructive to say, I said nothing.. could be a lot of racers are doing the same.. not really an issue big enough to start pissing in somebody's Cheerios over.. Ken and Chris will be at many of the same venues and there is no need for this type of tension, it distracts from a good time racing.. SO KNOCK IT OFF!!

Interesting that track conditions at National Events were brought up in light of the Vegas tragedy.. during the SG semi-finals in G-Ville, something definitely happened in the left lane.. one or two cars got out of shape and complaints were made at the Tech trailer before someone checked the track.. but there was almost a crash and it cost one driver his chance at the final.. I overheard a conveersation at the Tech trailer where it was stated that if you get out of "the groove", it's not our fault.. that don't cut it for me..

It's no surprise that there had to be something going on in Vegas for a SG car to crash, and then a Comp car to crash in the same lane right after.. I wasn't there, and don't know what went down the track previous to the crashes, but I think that someone is missing something.. we are OWED a safe race track..

The HANS devices are a great option, BUT, if you are in a topless car going 160 or better and happen to be upside or on your side sliding cage first towards the wall, I don't really think they will save your life.. just my opinion.. we DESERVE a safe race surface, no late rounds when dew might be setting in, and early racing starts only when the dew is gone.. and it's not too hard for the "over the wall crew" to check the track more often..

Just cause I'm just a SG racer doesn't mean that I don't deserve the same consideration that the Pros get.. after all I think my life is worth it.. but again, just my opinion.. LOL
