I fully support the forum rules. In the U.S. we have the right to say what we want as well as the freedom to disagree. Participating on this forum is a privledge, not a right. Ken, Bruce, and the rest of the admins are the ones with a right.... to keep it going or to take it away. If you post a "flame" (a.k.a. bashing something or somebody) be prepared for the consequences.

Secondly, this forum has brought the class racing community closer together in ways not possible in it's history. IMO it probably has saved Stock and Super Stock from NHRA extinction...at least for the moment.

Let's honor these guys for what they do by adhering to the rules.

Jack, Gary, I do appreciate the kind words. I know I may not always make the right calls with some members, but I do try to be fair. Ask some of my good friends that have been banned for a week for not following the rules in classifieds.

Gary, you are right on the mark, but I don't want members to think I'm unreasonable. If they have legitimate concerns or issues with the forum I am always ready to listen.

I would also like to think that Class Racer has helped the class racing community come together, well said Gary

Thanks again guys, and Mickey, you need to enlighten me on DWA

No, you said it correctly Ken....keyword: reasonable....very reasonable. I've been there and will vouch for ya!!!! Certainly a difference between abuse and threats vs. arguments and disagreement. I believe I've been in all corners and you've always managed to get things worked out.

Jim Wahl · 12-05-2009, 10:49 AM

I agree with Gary. Ken has always managed to work out whatever problem arises. Thanks for all you do for us Ken! Jim

Actually the guy paying the bills can censor anything typed here. This is not the "USA". This is a private forum which he allows you to use. If he or his moderators want to delete everything you type they can.

I can't comment on what I never read, but I will say this...I wonder about the credibility of your thoughts when you:

1. Spelled the word "wrong" as you did..... "wroung"??? Since when was a "u" in that word?

2. Spelled "Merry Christmas", "Marry Chrismas"??? Where's the "e" (not "a") in Merry, and the "t" in Christmas???

Ken & Bruce, just as cities can overule states with regards to certain laws, and states can do the same with certain laws over the feds, so can you call the shots to the bylaws of YOUR FORUM! As someone else here said, you're allowing racers nationwide to have a place to connect with each other, and discuss relevant topics regarding our sport, and how it affects the categories we participate in. I hope you guys never change that mindset, because every day it seems like the backbone of our great nation is becoming more wimpy, to cater to the desires of newcomers who think once they become citizens of our country (or members of something...like this forum), that they can change the rules regarding how we live (or the rules pertaining to memberships...like this forum).

Keep on keeping on guys, because this forum (and all of it's members), has allowed us racers (whether we raced a little or a lot this year), a place to keep up with the latest news affecting all of our sportsman classes, our fellow racers, and both of the "hot rod association(s)"!

THANKS AGAIN KEN & BRUCE, and all of the sponsors to this GREAT WEBSITE!!!

BTW, "MERRY CHRISTMAS", & "HAPPY NEW YEAR" to all of you in this forum!!!
