The edit came when it struck me how far off you were from the point I was making in the post. I struggle every day trying to find parts, much less afford them, so that I can keep people racing. It's the same with every person I know in this business, especially those who are supporting class racing.
Class racing is like the Republic, it's dead if we all let it die. Class racing can survive. Hopefully the Republic can as well. I've never been one to be concerned about the cost of a paint job, the size of a rig, or the price on a store bought car or engine. I don't judge anyone that way. I've never understood the fixation with "how much the other guy has". It ain't how I measure people, and it ain't how I compete. I've been treated quite well by a lot of wealthy people in racing, a lot of successful racers, and some who are both. I've been treated well by people faster than us, and by people slower than us. I can say that I have been made to feel I belong, by people in racing who could lose the entire sum of my life's earnings and possessions, and not even miss it. Sorry, those people ain't my enemies, and most of them ain't the source of my problems, or the problems faced by class racing, or the Republic. I've got more important things to worry about. You can go right on hating on whoever you want to.
