unreal

[Jimi B]

Goinbroke that's sorta the exact direction I was going. We are obsessed with reality. It started with reality tv and now is split with social networking. There are so many businesses/organizations that have grown solely bc they put effort in to social networking. I'm not as social as my facebook would make you believe. I am a big fan of self deprication for the sake of humor and to beat others to the punch. I also like to be very self aware. So I use social networking to poke fun at myself. But when I make a status such as I did last month "My first night as an engine machine shop owner and I'm at the strip club. How cliche is that?" Its mostly due to the fact that I know the value of social networking. And I was drunk ha. We want to know behind the scenes. We want to know the exciting, the dirt, the kindness, the mundane details. This drug garbage is proof enough. A lot of us are so obessed with racing we want to be in the know about everyone and everything that goes on behind the scenes. Hang out at your local speed shop. More gossip than a salon.

Now, I have a lot of ideas on how to grow my business and get in to other areas such a promoting solely to help keep the sport alive. But even as some of you are laughing at the idea goinbroke an I talking about, that and making the racing as a product better/more affordable/profitable could be the direction we need to go. The problem is finding a balance. I don't care about money or recognition. I like those things. But the bottom line is I love this sport. I want to wake up and thinking about making hosepower, going racing, and winning races! The people and the life experiences are amazing!

I can't stand Rich Christianson or that show! Cheezy as can be!
