Don, just think of this site as the family getting together for Thanksgiving dinner just on a daily basis. You've got the family success stories, the work-a-days, the slugs, the fair-haired children and the never quite lived up to expectations all around the table arguing their points. But the man at the head (Kenny?) of the table accepts us all and as long as we don't get too nasty he lets us have our way. If we do get too nasty, we get our knuckles cracked. But we're all one, big family.

I believe the site is geared toward Stock and Super Stock racing, with secondary and tertiary focuses on other forms of Sportsman racing and their interactions as a community both on and off the race track. Making anything more or less of it than that is a projection of a given author -- i.e., it is what we make it.

This site, more often than not, has an over abundance of entertainment. Don seems be one of the bigger contributors.

The beginning of the downfall of the Soviet Union has been attributed to the proliferation of fax machines (remember those?), i.e., the free flow of information.
Mother NHRA wielded absolute power (info flowing down) before web sites, cell phones, Drag Race Central etc....the instant communication available here (at times just after a round, or single controversial race) takes some of that power away (control of info) I believe sites like this and the "whining" about track prep and sportsman treatment at some early spring races turned the tide a bit. All of a sudden track prep, scheduling, sportsman winner treatment and pronouncements from the ivory tower swung a little in our favor A free flow (free-for-all) of ideas is good,yeah sometimes somebody "steps" in it, (I have), but in the end "dirty laundry" is best examined under the light of discussion/disagreement for example the Lamb deal....somebody wrote what some may have been thinking, then defenses and rebuttals sprang forth, and now it seems that what really happened is a bit more clear....is that better than built walls between east coast and west coast supporters....I say yes, because in the end we stick together as a class and use the power of unity to better our cause |

Speaking of bitching, fussing ,and fighting, sounds like we're all brothers to me...with a few sisters mixed in! Nobody fights more than brothers, but don't get in a fight with one....unless you want to fight them all! LOL And we are all competitors in this great past time, with a lot of passion, and sometimes rather large egos. About the only time that we won't help each other, is when we are in the other lane. Go ahead, fuss if you want to, but just like when we were kids...you have to earn your own respect!
