Hey folks, in light of yet another tragic loss on a short track, we ask you to take a look at Randy Lajoie's Safer Racing project. Randy works tirelessly to bring awareness to racers on short tracks about the need for safer racing. Please consider making a donation to this cause. http://www.indiegogo.com/projects/safer-racer-tour
I offer this anonymously..for now. Opinions are perhaps the most potentially volatile privilege we share. If it were not for opinions and the passion that fuels them, most sports...especially NASCAR racing would have failed early. Stating an opinion often makes the opinionated a target. Risky? Yes! Necessary? Yes! But, everyone's right, for sure. As for posting here on this site...opinions are certainly accepted and furthermore encouraged! Harsh criticism toward other's opinions...unwelcome! The escalation that often results from harsh criticism...extremely unfortunate!
Those of us who frequent this site have seen the damage this sort of thing can do to the site. I've seen other sites completely destroyed by unmoderated criticism and escalating unrest.
I just now re-read "The Rules of Engagement" posted here on the site. Written a few years ago, they still apply. If ever you consider harshly criticizing another's opinions...please read the Rules of Engagement first. CLICK HERE if you have not read them...or have trouble finding them. No one likes being exposed to discontent. It is my intent for folks to post their opinions freely. I you disagree with another opinion...what's wrong with saying, "If respect yours, here's mine"?
I agree brother Fulton!. Hope to never again hear a driver utter the words "he was racin me too hard".
I wrote my opinions about the new chase format HERE.
Sad news! I really enjoyed getting to meet and talk to Fred...and hearing his stories. He will be missed.
Thanks Dave. We owe you the same for all your contributions. All y'all are awesome folk.
Hmmm "Legend Adventures" has a nice ring to it!. Nice job, as usual Tim. Thank you very much for representing, not just RR, but the sport and it's roots.
