Mike, I know both you and Lee and I think I can see where you're both coming from. Lee, a young Guy, grew up watching his Dad and others doing this and would sell his Momma's Wedding dress just to be reassured that he'll have half a chance to be racing at the type of Events we have today when he's your age (not that you're old). As we get older some of us see things in a different light and that light shines differently depending on our personel finances and goals. Some approch this as a business , others as a picknick with a bunch of noisey cars and old friends. For some it's about the Fast Carshow side of it for others it's about putting together some POS and beating that $5000 paint job in the other lane. We all need a place. Way back when it was the sanction bodies that inticed us to travel to distant places to pursue the big purses, but once the audience was captured (us) the purses didn't keep up with the entry fees and other expences, but we are hooked. So where am I going with this? I don't know BUT Quit you darn bickering, who gives a hoot what Compton or anyone else in Glendora does with the 100 m large, we ain't getting any of it, don't want it if I didn't work for it anyway. Put your heads together and do someting constructive so when this all pans out we can share information and make informed decissions on what actions we can take and what options are available. The path of the last few years hasn't been all that good, can it get better? I sure hope so, Nicole gets her licence next year and wants my racecar. I'd sure enjoy crewing for her.
