There's a good chance that I won't be at every race and Al will need to ask for AI help from folks...so there will always be AI expertise.

Now as for me not being 100% into AI, I can tell you that in the past 3-4 months I've been upgraded from CMC to AI. I've been 110% AI and may even be out there kicking Texas AI butt in the future.
a) I've sold my CMC car....and am entertaining AI car purchases nationally.
b) I've directed, inspected & worked the AI Nationals with some pretty big challenges.
c) I've been eating, breathing & sleeping with AI rules for the last 2 months and can now tell you why each word is where it is and what the intent is.
d) I live & die AI now...and will likely be killed many more times over AI.
e) I've spent 5 HOURS nearly 5 nites a week talking to AI racers and understanding the why's and how's.

So...if you don't like that I'm the guy working to help lead the class to greater success...I'm OK with that.

But...if you think I'm just a CMC guy putting a half hearted effort into this AI gig and lallygagging with the rules, I got a problem with that.

My desire to spank some AI butt on track just went up a notch. :twisted:

Todd, admirable you actually responded, but I need to see results....and quick. Another friday deadline passed with no rules released...sort of proves my point NO ONE is at the helm nationally and now even regionally concerns me. Sorry AL, but the only thing keeping me from jumping to ST2 at this point is the fact Mixon will likely be re-instated as Regional director for them instead of Rob Lay so the number of "free entries" is further reduced. :roll: Apparently NASATX can't seem to make money so we are having to pay the price.... :roll: :evil:

To ask someone to "help out" without compensation for doing so is as retarded as having our regional website done and then not paying for it. For one person to even ATTEMPT to run this as a one man show is down right insane and unrealistic. I'll bring smores because the flames are going to be nice and toasty.

Relax, relax, relax, its just a little pin prick
There'll be mo more AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH
but you may feel a little sick...

No stop signs, speed limit
Nobody's gonna slow me down
Like a wheel, gonna spin it
Nobody's gonna mess me round

Better?

Matt, its interesting to me that you can go from singing praises about how Nationals was the best tech operation you'd ever seen to saying there guys running the show have no clue what AI is all about...considering we're talking about the same two guys.

Everyone is entitled to their opinion of course. You, and everyone else for that matter, are free to form your own opinion and race in whatever series under whatever sanctioning body you choose. Threats of taking your ball and going home dont impress nor concern me.

As for my opinion, I think the results of the post race tech at nationals are a pretty good indication of what Todd and I can and have been doing for AI.

tech as a whole was light years beyond what it was in 2008. I would almost say it was the difference between a dirt track race and a Rolex Race.

This is the same attitude that "other" series had.... before the birth of NASA...

I have NEVER seen DD take this attitude..

I'm just saying

Well he's tellin' us this
And he's tellin' us that
Changes it ev'ry day
Says it doesn't matter
Bases are loaded
And Casey's at bat
Playin' it play by play
Time to change the batter

Thank you DD.

OK, I am on-call and Its a slow weekend. Time for a mindless brain teaser. Five Todd quotes, what is STOMP?

"Todd: I have to go, theres a breast reduction on the 4th floor....and I must stop it."

"You're not my father, Todd!"

"What? What, I thought we were in the trust tree, in the nest, were we not?"

"I seem to be the scape-goat for both the North and the South."

"We get caribou, get 'em ground up and put them into hotdogs."
